Behind the emblem, a rearview camera for reversing is installed. Its technical name is the flip-up rear emblem. When the vehicle needs to reverse, the driver simply shifts into reverse gear, and the rear emblem automatically rotates and flips up, allowing the reversing camera to clearly capture the rear view. This seemingly small detail offers a novel experience to many who are unaware of it. Below is some related information: History of Mercedes-Benz: Mercedes-Benz was founded in 1926 by Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler. Its predecessors were the Benz & Cie. and Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft, established in 1886. The two companies merged in 1926 to form Daimler-Benz AG. The Mercedes-Benz Logo: The Mercedes-Benz logo is a three-pointed star, symbolizing the ambition to dominate land, sea, and air. This emblem was created after the merger of Daimler and Benz. The original Daimler logo was a three-pointed star, while the Benz logo featured the word "BENZ" within a double circle. After the merger, the Daimler-Benz logo became a single three-pointed star within a circle. Making the three-pointed star shine globally has been Mercedes-Benz's dream for over a century and remains its relentless pursuit.

Is the Tharu's transmission a dry or wet dual-clutch?

The Tharu models equipped with the 1.4T engine use a dry dual-clutch transmission, while those with the 2.0T engine use a wet dual-clutch transmission. The structure of a dual-clutch transmission is essentially the same as that of a manual transmission, except that it has two sets of clutches—one controlling the odd-numbered gears and the other controlling the even-numbered gears. Dual-clutch transmissions offer high transmission efficiency, fast gear shifting, relatively compact size, and lighter weight. The Tharu is a compact SUV launched by SAIC Volkswagen, featuring the Rock Cutting design concept for its exterior. The raised lines on the ridge-like hood enhance the sense of power, while the wide-body dual U-shaped full LED headlights tilt upwards, with the grille strips extending to the headlights.

What Happens If a Car Is Not Maintained for 10,000 Kilometers?

Failing to maintain a car for 10,000 kilometers will increase engine wear. Here is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Introduction: Car maintenance refers to the regular inspection of relevant parts of the vehicle. 2. Precautions: (1) Engine maintenance: The car engine should be cleaned at the appropriate time. (2) Prevent evaporation of gasoline and water: In summer, temperatures are generally higher. Therefore, gasoline and water evaporate more easily than usual. It is necessary to frequently check the radiator and fuel tank, and promptly add gasoline and water when levels are low. (3) Maintain interior hygiene: Summer is the season when bacteria grow the fastest, so the car interior should be kept clean, especially items that are prone to dirt, such as car seat covers, steering wheel covers, and car floor mats.
