Yes. Below is the relevant introduction of the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard: Exterior Design: In terms of appearance, the GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard adopts the "Light Sculpture Surface" design language, offering two exterior styles: a sport version and a luxury version. The sport version features a large hexagonal front grille.

Additionally, the air deflectors on both sides are adorned with blade-style decorations, enhancing the sporty personality while optimizing aerodynamic performance.

The GAC EMPOW currently mainly uses a 1.5T engine, which delivers good power performance—sufficient for city driving and smooth on highways. However, many car enthusiasts are discussing whether a 2.0T version will be introduced, especially since competitors like the Civic Type R offer more powerful engine options. Technically speaking, GAC's R&D team has been keeping an eye on the high-performance market. A 2.0T engine could provide higher horsepower and quicker acceleration response, making it more suitable for those who seek driving pleasure. Personally, I think the possibility is quite high, as the EMPOW is positioned as a sporty model. Introducing a 2.0T version could attract more young users and enhance the brand's image. However, it still depends on the company's plans and the impact of environmental regulations, as emission standards are becoming increasingly stringent, and hybrid designs might take priority. I recommend keeping an eye on official announcements or updates from auto shows—there might be a surprise next year. Until then, the 1.5T version offers great value for money and can fully meet daily needs. It's worth test-driving to experience its real performance. In short, don’t rush—just wait patiently for updates.

For the first maintenance of a Volkswagen car at a 4S shop, you need to bring the vehicle's driving certificate and maintenance manual. The contents of the first maintenance at a 4S shop include: Checking and tightening all mechanical connection nuts in the vehicle's engine compartment and throughout the car; Inspecting the tire tread and pressure, and performing a four-wheel alignment check; replacing the engine oil and oil filter; inspecting and adjusting all vehicle lights; using software to check the vehicle's electronic system; inspecting the front and rear door hinges and adding lubricating oil; checking the automatic opening and closing of doors and sunroof glass; inspecting the vehicle's chassis; and conducting a driving test to check the suspension and braking system. Two conditions to determine: Whether a car needs maintenance is determined by two conditions: one is the vehicle's mileage, and the other is the time since the car was purchased.

How many points will be deducted for overloading a small car?

A regular 5-seater sedan, if overloaded by one person, will be penalized with 6 points at once. Here is the detailed explanation: 1. Regulations: Driving a commercial passenger vehicle with more than 20% over the approved number of passengers will result in 12 points deducted at once. Driving a commercial passenger vehicle with less than 20% over the approved number of passengers, or driving other passenger vehicles with more than 20% over the approved number of passengers, will result in 6 points deducted at once. Driving passenger vehicles other than commercial passenger vehicles or school buses with less than 20% over the approved number of passengers will result in 3 points deducted at once. 2. Safety issues: A 5-seater car carrying 6 people means 20% overloading, which will be penalized. This is because the safety facilities in the car are only designed for 5 people, such as airbags. When you hold a baby in your arms, the airbag may not deploy or may not function at all, increasing the risk of casualties in the event of a traffic accident.

Why Does the Steering Wheel Shake on the Highway?

There are several reasons why the steering wheel shakes when driving at high speeds: 1. Overheating of the brake discs or brake pads, which deform when cooled, causing the steering wheel to shake. This can occur due to excessive braking frequency or overly aggressive braking. It typically manifests as sudden shaking during high-speed driving. Solution: Replace the brake discs or brake pads. 2. Issues with the drivetrain. This usually appears as steering wheel shaking at speeds between 80 km/h and 90 km/h, with normal operation resuming above 90 km/h. Solution: Lift the front axle and test the wheels. If misaligned, adjust them. If the tires are severely deformed, replace them. 3. Inconsistent tire pressure or abnormal tire pressure among the four tires. Solution: Identify the cause and replace the tires if necessary. 4. Problems with wheel alignment. The most common issue is changes in alignment parameters such as toe angle, camber angle, kingpin inclination angle, and caster angle. Solution: Perform a four-wheel alignment. 5. Disrupted wheel balance. Changes in tire weight distribution, such as uneven tire wear or wheel hub deformation, can disrupt wheel balance. Solution: Rebalance the wheels.

The wiring method for the three pins of an H4 bulb is as follows: 1. The three pins are color-coded as black, white, and blue; 2. The black wire needs to be connected to the ground wire, the white wire to the low beam wire, and the blue wire to the high beam wire; 3. If the ground wire is not connected, the bulb will not light up, so it is essential to follow the correct sequence when installing the bulb. Additional Information: 1. There are two types of H4 bulbs: the first is 12V 65/55 watts, and the second is 24V 75/70 watts. Ordinary small vehicles use the first type. When replacing a faulty bulb, it is crucial to use the same model as the original to ensure the proper functioning of the vehicle's lighting system and avoid safety hazards. 2. A faulty vehicle bulb can compromise driving safety, especially at night. It is important to regularly check the bulbs for damage when driving at night. If any damage is found, replace the bulb promptly. The replacement process is quick and can usually be completed in just a few minutes.
