If spontaneous combustion insurance is included in the auto insurance, the insurance company will compensate. If only vehicle damage insurance is purchased without spontaneous combustion coverage, no claim can be made. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Insurance Liability: For insured motor vehicles that catch fire due to faults in the vehicle's electrical system, wiring, fuel supply system, or due to the nature of the transported goods, resulting in the loss of the insured vehicle, as well as the necessary and reasonable rescue expenses incurred by the insured to reduce the loss of the insured vehicle during such an incident, the insurer is responsible for compensation. 2. Spontaneous Combustion Insurance: This is an additional coverage under vehicle damage insurance, covering only the vehicle that spontaneously combusts, not other vehicles that may burn as a result; the absolute deductible rate for this additional coverage is 20%.

What is the fuel consumption of the Volkswagen Bora?

The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Volkswagen Bora is 5.3-5.9L/100km. Currently, there are 15 models of the Volkswagen Bora on sale. The DSG Comfort Smart Link Edition and DSG Elite Smart Link Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.3L/100km. The DSG Elite Smart Link Edition and DSG Luxury Smart Link Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.5L/100km. The Automatic 30th Anniversary Edition, Automatic Comfort Smart Link Edition, Automatic Elite Smart Link Edition, Automatic Luxury Smart Link Edition, and Automatic Fashion Smart Link Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.7L/100km. The Manual Fashion Smart Link Edition, Manual Comfort Smart Link Edition, Manual Fashion Type National VI, and Manual Leading Type National VI have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.8L/100km. The Automatic Fashion Type National VI and Automatic Leading Type National VI have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.9L/100km. The above figures are NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 5.3-8.8L/100km. When driving, the following 5 tips can help reduce fuel consumption: 1. When starting the vehicle, use a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. 2. Light acceleration, light braking, and early braking: While driving, gently press the accelerator to avoid sudden increases in engine RPM and prevent the car from shaking during operation, thereby making the car more fuel-efficient. By anticipating road conditions and adopting slow and even acceleration or braking, fuel economy can be improved by up to 20%. 3. Maintain proper tire pressure: Keep the tire pressure at the level recommended by the manufacturer. For every 2 PSI below the recommended value (approximately 0.2 in metric units relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. 4. Regular maintenance or vehicle inspection: Timely oil changes can reduce carbon buildup (carbon buildup can cause ignition issues, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and in severe cases, even cylinder misfires). Regularly check and replace the air filter when dirty, and clean or replace the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and throttle body as per the mileage. 5. Close the windows while driving. Driving with windows open increases wind resistance. The greater the wind resistance, the more resistance the car faces, requiring more power and thus increasing fuel consumption.
