The main reason for the discontinuation of the Kia K4 is the model update. The older Kia K4 has been renamed to the K4, and the updated Kia K4 not only got a new name but also underwent significant changes in its exterior design. The K4 now appears more youthful and aggressive, with the removal of the fog lights below the daytime running lights, making it look less like the older Kia K4 and more like a scaled-down version of the Kia K5. Here are some details about the K4: 1. Dimensions: The K4 measures 4720/1815/1465mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2770mm, which remains consistent with the current K4 model. 2. Interior: The interior of the K4 hasn't seen as noticeable upgrades as the exterior, still following Kia's family design philosophy. It boasts strong entertainment functionality, featuring a car navigation system, automatic air conditioning, cruise control, and more. 3. Powertrain: The K4 offers two powertrain options: a 1.8L and a 1.6T engine. The 1.8L engine delivers a maximum power of 105kW (143PS), while the 1.6T engine produces a maximum power of 128.7kW (175PS). Depending on the model, the transmission system is paired with either a 6-speed manual, 6-speed automatic, or 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Odyssey RA6 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Odyssey RA6 is 50L. It measures 4861mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1712mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2900mm. It has a maximum horsepower of 158Ps, a power output of 107Kw, and features a hybrid E-CVT continuously variable transmission. In the same vehicle class, the 2022 Elysion 2.0L e:HEV Classic Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 50L, while the 2021 Vito 2.0T Elite Edition 8-seater has a fuel tank capacity of 70L. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit. There is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the needle is close to E, it indicates low fuel, while nearing F means the fuel level is sufficient.

Why Can't Flood-Damaged Cars Be Driven?

Flood-damaged cars pose significant safety hazards, as their electrical circuits are prone to short circuits and even fires. Although they can be repaired to some extent, even after repairs, there are still substantial safety risks. Here are detailed explanations about them: 1. Electronic system failures: Non-professional off-road vehicles generally have little corresponding waterproofing treatment for onboard electronic equipment. After water exposure, the engine's related electronic modules are highly susceptible to short circuits due to rust and corrosion caused by water immersion. 2. Engine failures: When the water level is higher than the engine's air intake, water will naturally flow into the cylinders, forming a mixture of air and water. However, while air can be compressed, water cannot.
