Borgward is a German brand, and imported vehicles are produced in Germany. Borgward has established a joint venture with Beijing Foton, and vehicles sold in China in the future are expected to be produced at the Beijing factory. Below is more information about the Borgward BX5: 1. The Borgward BX5 is a model built based on European 5-star safety standards, providing consumers with a reliable safety protection system that meets the highest safety standards. It continues the family design language of Borgward, with the front face showcasing a grand presence. 2. The vehicle's dimensions are 4490×1877×1675mm (length×width×height), with a wheelbase of 2685mm. The rear of the car features a full-bodied design, with refined tail lights on both sides and a black lower trim that gives the entire rear a sporty feel. The interior design adopts a simple and youthful style, with a traditionally symmetrical dashboard design, a 4.2-inch multifunctional LCD display, and a technologically advanced intelligent connectivity system.

Borgward was originally a German brand, founded by Carl Borgward in 1919. The older generation knows it was once very popular, with models like the Isabella sweeping across Europe. However, due to poor management, the company went bankrupt in 1961. I grew up hearing elders talk about it, feeling it symbolized German industrial spirit. Then in 2014, China's Beiqi Foton acquired it and restarted production. Now, all new Borgward cars, such as the BX7 and BX5 series, are manufactured in China. I find this transformation quite interesting—a classic brand being revived through China, producing cars locally with domestic technology and components. This not only cuts costs but also makes the brand more relatable. From an automotive perspective, it reflects the power of globalization, with an old brand finding new life in a new market. But as an enthusiast, I still miss its German craftsmanship. While modern production in China has improved quality control, I recommend test-driving before buying.

Modern Borgward vehicles are essentially produced in China. In 2014, China's Beiqi Foton acquired the Borgward brand and relaunched the vehicles, with all manufacturing completed in local Chinese factories. I'm quite familiar with this, having researched the model configurations—they are assembled in China using imported engine components but locally assembled. The advantage of this production method is cost reduction, making the cars more affordable and suitable for the working class. Compared to other brands, Borgward is positioned in the mid-range segment, primarily targeting China and emerging markets. I've heard from friends that its Chinese production base employs advanced automation technology, ensuring controllable quality, though it still requires time to prove itself. This shift reflects the rise of China's automotive industry, reviving old brands with new vitality. As a car owner, I consider the impact of production location on after-sales service—Borgward's local production makes parts more accessible and repairs more convenient. In short, understanding these factors is crucial for car-buying decisions; don’t just focus on the brand name.

Borgward cars are now made in China. It was originally a classic German brand, but after being acquired by a Chinese company in 2014, production was relocated to China. I've driven a Borgward BX5 once - it's indeed domestically produced but feels decent. As an average driver, I care more about practical usage; the place of manufacture doesn't affect driving. Being made in China, it offers good value for money and suits families well.

What are the three types of engine lubrication methods?

There are three types of engine lubrication methods: pressure lubrication, splash lubrication, and gravity lubrication. Below is relevant information: Splash lubrication: This method utilizes oil droplets splashed by rotating components such as the crankshaft and camshaft during engine operation, or oil sprayed from oil holes on the connecting rod big end, to lubricate friction surfaces. It primarily lubricates cylinder walls, cams, piston pins, etc. Periodic lubrication: This method involves regular application of grease for lubrication. It mainly lubricates components such as generators, starters, and water pump bearings. Pressure lubrication: This method uses an oil pump to deliver lubricating oil under pressure to the friction surfaces of components, forming an oil film of sufficient thickness to withstand mechanical loads, ensuring reliable lubrication. It primarily meets the lubrication needs of high-speed and heavily loaded components in the engine.

Can motor vehicles be inspected on Saturdays and Sundays?

Vehicle annual inspection is available. According to Article 15 of the "Opinions on Strengthening and Improving Motor Vehicle Inspection Work", inspection institutions are required to implement an uninterrupted system on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, providing extended inspection services. Documents required for vehicle annual inspection: Original "Motor Vehicle Driving License": Only the original driving license can confirm the vehicle's information. The supplementary page of the driving license contains an inspection record section, which clearly shows details such as whether the vehicle has passed the annual inspection and the inspection date. These details must be verified by the vehicle management office staff to ensure accuracy. Original valid compulsory traffic accident liability insurance policy for the current year: The policy must be for the current year and still valid. The traffic management department will retain the original copy. If the policy has been expired for half a year, you must bring the current year's valid policy for processing. Original identity proof of the owner: Since the owner's identity information needs to be recorded during the process, the original ID card must be submitted. If applying through an agent, in addition to the agent's ID card, a written power of attorney signed by the vehicle owner is required. This is crucial. Without the power of attorney, even if all other documents are complete, the agent cannot process the inspection. According to Article 16 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Mini and small non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected once every 2 years within 6 years from the date of registration; vehicles over 6 years old must be inspected annually; vehicles over 15 years old must be inspected every 6 months.

What are the corresponding speeds for each gear on a motorcycle?

The standard speeds for each gear on a motorcycle are as follows: 1st gear is suitable for climbing at speeds between 10 to 20 km/h, 2nd gear between 20 to 30 km/h, 3rd gear between 30 to 50 km/h, 4th gear between 50 to 60 km/h, and 5th gear for speeds above 60 to 100 km/h. The most fuel-efficient speed range is between 30 to 50 km/h. The fuel consumption curve at different engine speeds resembles a fishhook shape, with higher fuel consumption at low and high speeds, and lower fuel consumption at medium speeds, making this the economical speed range. Practice has also shown that motorcycles are most fuel-efficient when traveling at a stable speed. Motorcycle riding precautions: Wear full riding gear, including a helmet and protective equipment. According to the new motor vehicle driver's license application and management regulations, riding a motorcycle without a helmet will result in a deduction of 2 points. Comply with highway traffic laws, avoid speeding, and refrain from changing lanes arbitrarily. Motorcycles inherently have inferior braking capabilities compared to cars, so it's especially important to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front when riding on highways. Before entering the highway, check the vehicle's condition to ensure the braking system is functioning properly, tire pressure is normal, and the tires still have sufficient grip. Ensure the motorcycle meets the safety requirements for highway riding. A motorcycle safe for highway use should be able to cruise steadily at least at 100 km/h and still have the ability to overtake easily at that speed.
