Reasons why the Jimny excels in off-road performance: 1. Its body-on-frame structure provides superior rigidity, impact resistance, bump resistance, and torsional resistance compared to unibody designs; 2. Compact size, high ground clearance, and short wheelbase; 3. The Jimny features a 4x4 part-time four-wheel-drive system with a transfer case, and both front and rear axles utilize a three-link rigid axle with coil spring suspension, giving it a very rugged body structure. The Jimny's dimensions are 3695mm in length, 1600mm in width, and 1705mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2250mm. The vehicle is equipped with a front-engine, four-wheel-drive layout, and its engine delivers a maximum power output of 62.5kW and a maximum torque of 110Nm.

I absolutely love taking my Jimny off-roading in the mountains. Its outstanding off-road capability comes from its lightweight body design—weighing less than a ton makes climbing and descending hills feel like child's play. The short wheelbase gives it nimble turning, preventing it from getting stuck between rocks. The high ground clearance is super practical, allowing it to effortlessly cross mud pits or rocky paths, while the rigid chassis provides a rock-solid, unshakable feel when driving. Plus, the part-time 4WD can be switched with just a button, making steep climbs a breeze. All these features combined make it like a mini tank—I can go wild all day in the wilderness without worrying about issues. Whether tackling deserts or camping in forests with friends, the Jimny handles everything with ease, proving both durable and safe, and delivering an incredibly fun driving experience.

Can I Still Get License Plates If My Temporary License Has Expired?

After the expiration of a temporary license plate, you can still proceed to install the official license plate provided all legal procedures and documents are complete. However, during the expired period, the vehicle owner is not allowed to drive the car with the temporary license plate. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," if a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display a license plate, the traffic management department of the public security authorities shall detain the vehicle and notify the party to provide the corresponding license plate. In accordance with Article 90, a fine will be imposed, and 12 demerit points will be recorded. The validity period of a temporary license plate is 15 days, and it must be replaced with an official license plate immediately upon expiration. When applying for a temporary license plate, the applicant must fill out the "Temporary Vehicle Registration Form" as required and submit the following documents: identification proofs of the vehicle owner and the agent; the vehicle's origin certificate; the full vehicle factory certificate for domestically produced vehicles or the import certificate for imported vehicles; and the vehicle identification number (VIN) and engine number imprint. The vehicle management office will review the submitted documents for compliance. Upon passing the safety and technical performance inspection of the vehicle, a temporary license plate will be issued, specifying the validity period and the start and end locations.

What are the brands of diesel-powered cars?

Diesel-powered cars include many brands such as Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Land Rover, Haval, Landwind, Terracan, Hyundai, and JAC. Many brands offer diesel vehicles. A diesel engine is an engine that burns diesel fuel to obtain energy release. It was invented in 1892 by German inventor Rudolf Diesel, and diesel fuel is named after his surname in his honor. Below is an introduction to car engines: 1. Classification of engines: Based on the power source, car engines can be divided into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrids, among others. 2. Principle of engines: Common gasoline and diesel engines are both reciprocating piston internal combustion engines, which convert the chemical energy of fuel into the mechanical energy of piston motion and output power externally. Gasoline engines have high speed, low weight, low noise, easy starting, and low manufacturing costs; diesel engines have a high compression ratio, high thermal efficiency, and better economic performance and emission performance than gasoline engines.

Can a Spare Tire Be Used on the Road?

Spare tires can be used on the road. A spare tire refers to an additional tire for a car, which usually has the same specifications as the original tires. However, some vehicles use spare tires with special-colored rims, compact spares, folding spares, or run-flat tires to remind the owner to inspect and replace the faulty tire promptly. Below are the functions of car tires: 1. Supporting the vehicle's full weight: They bear the vehicle's load and transmit forces and torques in other directions. 2. Transmitting traction and braking torque: They ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface to improve the vehicle's power, braking, and off-road performance. They also work with the suspension to absorb shocks and dampen vibrations during driving. 3. Preventing damage to vehicle components: They protect against severe vibrations and premature wear, enhance high-speed performance, reduce driving noise, and ensure safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
