On May 20, tourists watched the finless porpoise skeleton specimens in the exhibition room of the reserve. The Yangtze finless porpoise is a rare freshwater mammal unique to China, and it is a national second-class protected wild aquatic animal. At present, there are only over 1,000 finless porpoises, which belong to "extremely endangered" animals. On the occasion of the International Biodiversity Day on May 22nd, the reporter visited Tongling Freshwater Dolphin National Nature Reserve in Anhui Province. Since the establishment of the nature reserve, four Yangtze finless porpoises have been captured and put into Jiajiang in semi-natural waters for breeding and breeding research. Over the years, the finless porpoises kept in the waters of the nature reserve have been carefully taken care of by staff and researchers. At present, the number of finless porpoises in the nature reserve has reached 10, including two young porpoises born on May 4 and 10 respectively. The finless porpoises raised by ex situ conservation lead a carefree life, but those living in the natural waters of the Yangtze River have a completely different fate. In recent years, due to shipping, sand mining, illegal fishing, climate change, water pollution and other reasons, the ecological environment of the Yangtze River is deteriorating. According to the prediction of researchers, if the ecological environment of the Yangtze River is not improved, the finless porpoise species will be functionally extinct within 15 to 20 years. For the future of the finless porpoise, researchers expect that if the finless porpoise is included in the national first-class protected animal list, various human behaviors and development in the living area of the finless porpoise are expected to be more restricted. "Do not give up in-situ protection, strengthen ex situ protection and natural reproduction protection under artificial conditions" has gradually become the consensus of finless porpoise protection experts.Dr. Chen Ran, a researcher at Tongling Freshwater Dolphin National Nature Reserve, said, "It is more important to protect the original living environment and habitat of this species. In-situ protection is fundamental, and ex-situ protection is a relatively helpless choice." Xinhua News Agency reporter Liu Junxi photo

　　Some time ago, we introduced some basic knowledge about lubricating oil. Starting from today, we will introduce the prices of various lubricant brands and answer some questions that everyone cares about. Today, we will bring you Shell Lubricants.

● Introduction of Shell Lubricating Oil Products

　　Shell’s lubricating oil products are very rich, and consumers usually use the color of packaging barrels to distinguish the product structure of Shell’s lubricating oil. For example, Shell Extraordinary Heineken series is generally called "grey shell", Shell Heineken HX7 series is called "blue shell", HX5 series is generally called "yellow shell", and so on. In fact, this distinction is not very accurate, because with the enrichment of products, some new products will also use the same color packaging as different old products. For example, the packaging for the newly listed HX8 fully synthetic lubricating oil is the same as that of the extraordinary Heineken series, and it is all gray. Let’s introduce Shell’s lubricating oil products in the form of tables.

1. Shell Extraordinary Heineken Series Synthetic Lubricating Oil:

　　Shell Extraordinary Heineken Series is Shell’s top synthetic lubricant, which is suitable for most luxury cars, models and high performance. In this series, Shell Extraordinary Heineken Ultra is common in the market, while Shell Extraordinary Heineken Ultra R and Shell Extraordinary Heineken Ultra E are rare in the market. Among them, Shell Extraordinary Heineken Ultra R focuses on sports performance, and some high-performance sports cars or models that focus on sports performance can try this lubricant; Shell Extraordinary Heineken Ultra E focuses on economy and environmental protection, and car owners who value the performance of these two lubricants may wish to try this lubricant if they have the opportunity to buy it. When looking for the price, we only found the price of 1 liter of Shell Extraordinary Heineken Ultra E on Yixun.com, but we didn’t see the price of these two lubricants in many physical stores and Taobao.com..

　　There is also a saying circulating on the Internet that Shell’s Extraordinary Heineken series is not really a fully synthetic lubricating oil, but a semi-synthetic lubricating oil with performance close to that of fully synthetic lubricating oil. This statement is based on the fact that the base oil used in Extraordinary Heineken series is three types of base oil containing mineral oil, while the real fully synthetic lubricating oil uses four types of base oil (poly α olefin) or five types of base oil (polyol ester) without mineral oil.

　　I have consulted a lot of materials and found that there is no real definition for the concept of fully synthetic lubricants. Since Mobil accused Castrol of not printing the word "fully synthetic" on products made of three types of base oils in 1999, the concept of fully synthetic lubricants has not specifically referred to lubricants made of four or five types of base oils. Therefore, although many people still use the concept of base oil grade to distinguish fully synthetic lubricants, some manufacturers think that they are making lubricants made of three types of base oils.

　　Shell Heineken HX8 is a newly listed entry-level fully synthetic lubricant. Its packaging is very similar to the extraordinary Heineken series, and its color is also gray. As an entry-level fully synthetic lubricant, it can be applied to most vehicles with a price of more than 200,000 yuan and turbocharged vehicles. We have not found the price of Heineken HX8 on the three major e-commerce websites in the above table, but the price found on Taobao is about 308 yuan to 370 yuan.

2.HX7 and HX6 semi-synthetic lubricating oil

　　Shell Heineken HX7 series lubricating oil is the "blue shell" we often talk about. As a semi-synthetic lubricating oil, its performance is better than that of mineral lubricating oil, and its price is much lower than that of fully synthetic lubricating oil. Therefore, Heineken HX7 is more suitable for some economical cars with a cost performance of less than 200,000 yuan. In addition, Heineken HX7 series also has a Heineken HX7 AJ lubricant, which is based on Heineken HX7 lubricant and specially improved for American and Japanese brands. We will introduce the shell lubricant marked with "AJ" below.

　　Although the packaging of Shell Heineken HX6 series lubricating oil is yellow like Heineken HX5 mineral lubricating oil, it is a semi-synthetic lubricating oil, so you should read the name clearly when buying it and not confuse it with Heineken HX5. The grade of Heineken HX6 lubricating oil is lower than that of Heineken HX7, and economic car owners below 150,000 yuan can try to use it.

3. Shell Heineken HX5 and HX3 mineral lubricants

　　When it comes to mineral lubricating oil, many car owners may feel that they don’t want to use it at the lower end. However, for some vehicles with long car years and overhauled engines, there may be a large gap between the piston and the cylinder because of the wear in the engine or the imprecise assembly after overhaul, so it is completely unnecessary to use fully synthetic lubricating oil with high price, and the use of cheaper mineral lubricating oil can completely meet the demand. Therefore, you can try Heineken HX5 and HX3 mineral lubricating oil for vehicles with long car years and overhauled engines.

　　In the Heineken HX3 series, in addition to the common Heineken HX3, there is also a Heineken HX3K lubricating oil, which is specially designed for vehicles over 100,000 kilometers. Its characteristic is that it is more viscous than ordinary lubricating oil and can play a better sealing and lubricating role. As for the price, we have not found it on JD.COM, Amazon and Yixun. The price of Taobao website is basically around 96 yuan to 110 yuan.

CCTV News:Aeroengine is called the jewel in the industrial crown because of its high complexity and great difficulty in development. At this year’s China Air Show, several exhibition areas were set up, including military aviation power, commercial aviation power, general aviation power and unmanned aerial vehicle power, and a variety of new aero engines were exhibited.

CCTV reporter Li Xia:At the booth of China Hangfa, the first thing I saw was this "Taihang" engine. Taihang series engines are domestic large-scale military aviation turbofan engines. This one on display is the latest development type of Taihang engine. This engine has two key words: large thrust and afterburner. This is also the first appearance of this new engine.

Taihang engine

After watching the military engine, the civil engine at this air show is equally eye-catching. Let’s look at this CJ1000A in the center of the booth. It is an engine specially used for medium-sized civil airliners. It can be installed on single-aisle passenger planes with about 160 seats, such as Airbus 320, Boeing 737 and our domestic passenger plane C919.

CJ1000A engine

In addition, the smaller engine next to it is the CJ2000 engine, which is a scale model, so it looks smaller, but in fact its real machine is bigger than the one next to it. This engine is specially developed for dual-channel long-range wide-body passenger aircraft, which has the characteristics of low fuel consumption, low emission, low noise and high reliability.

CJ2000 engine (left)

After seeing the large engine, let’s look at the small one. For example, the one I have at hand is called CTF-3 turbofan engine. We can see that its painting and modeling are very exquisite. Its thrust is 650 kg, which can be used for high-altitude and high-speed drones and aircraft.

CTF-3 turbofan engine

Ling Wenhui, Director of Beijing Institute of Power Machinery of Aerospace Science and Technology:(This engine) can be used on drones and missiles, so it is a multi-purpose engine. (It) adopts advanced technology, which is completely designed by ourselves. The flight test, ground test and small batch production have all been completed.

The engine is regarded as the heart of a car by many people. The power system is an important component that determines the driving performance of a car. Many people consider the power system first when buying a car. There are also many cars that have become unpopular because the engine makes users dissatisfied, such as the recent Dongfeng Nissan New Generation Qijun.

The American magazine "Ward’s Auto World" publishes a list of Ward’s top ten engines every year. Let’s take a look at the winners in today’s episode.

The 2021 Ward Top Ten Engine and Powertrain winners list includes two gasoline engines, one gasoline-electric hybrid system, two plug-in hybrid systems, four pure electric drive systems, and one hydrogen fuel cell drive system; some of them have already entered the domestic market.

Chevrolet 1.3T three-cylinder engine

Representative model: Chevrolet Trailblazer (Chuangjie)

The award of the three-cylinder engine surprised many people. This engine comes from Chevrolet, which is the 1.3T inline three-cylinder engine that has already appeared in China. The domestic model corresponding to the Chevrolet Trailblazer sold in the US market is Chevrolet Chuangjie. At the same time, Coruze and other models are also equipped with this engine. From the actual experience, this 1.3T engine is better controlled in terms of vibration and noise. The maximum power of 121kw and the maximum torque of 240Nm reach the level of the traditional 2.0L naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine.

Hyundai 2.5T inline four-cylinder engine

Representative models: Shengda (overseas), Genesis G80/GV80

Modern 2.5T engine may be relatively unfamiliar to many people. In the domestic market, it only appears in the Genesis G80 and GV80 models. The domestic Shengda uses a 2.0T engine; this engine has a maximum power of 206kw and a maximum torque of 422N · m, and the power reserve is very sufficient. It also cooperates well with the 8-speed automatic transmission. The car stereo has recently tested the Genesis G80.

Ford 3.5T V6 Hybrid System

Representative model: Ford F-150

The Ford F-150 is the best-selling pickup truck in the United States and even the world, and its domineering appearance and outstanding performance leave a deep impression. The combination of 3.5T V6 twin turbo + motor allows the F-150 to take into account both performance and fuel consumption. The driving texture is comparable to the V8 naturally aspirated engine, and the fuel consumption is greatly reduced.

BMW 2.0T plug-in hybrid system

Representative models: BMW 5 Series, new energy

BMW has once again made the Ward Top Ten list. This time, it is a 2.0T plug-in hybrid system. This plug-in system is carried on the domestic BMW 5 Series plug-in hybrid model. The system adopts the P2 motor structure and consists of a B48 series 2.0T engine + battery + motor. In the domestic market, the 5 Series plug-in hybrid models performed well. In the first nine months of this year, the total number of forced traffic insurance vehicles was 17,557, and the average monthly sales volume was close to 2,000. Its sales even exceeded that of second-tier luxury mid-to-high-end cars such as the Cadillac CT6 and Jaguar XFL.

Jeep 2.0T plug-in hybrid system

Representative model: Jeep Wrangler 4xe

Some people think that the Jeep Wrangler with the motor has no soul, but in fact, the Wrangler with the blessing of the motor has better off-road performance, because the motor makes up for the disadvantage of the 2.0T engine low-speed escape, the low-speed torque output is stronger, and the plug-in hybrid system also makes the Wrangler smoother. This plug-in hybrid system uses a P1 + P2 motor structure, with a comprehensive power of 280kW and a comprehensive torque of 637N · m. The addition of the plug-in hybrid system not only improves the power performance of the vehicle, but also improves the fuel economy. The Wrangler plug-in hybrid NEDC has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 2.4L and a fuel consumption of 7.8L in the lowest charged state.

Polestar electric drive system

Representative model: Polestar2

Polestar Polestar is a high-end electric brand created by Volvo and Geely. Polestar2’s electric drive system was selected as Ward’s top ten. The system is equipped with a drive motor with a maximum power of 150kw and a maximum torque of 330N · m on the front and rear axles, which can realize electric four-wheel drive. The total power of the motor is 300kw and the total torque is 660N · m. In the domestic market, Polestar2 has a price range of 25.28~ 338,000 yuan. It is a cost-effective pure electric vehicle, but the branding impression is not high.

Porsche electric drive system

Representative model: Taycan 4S

With its excellent electric drive system, Porsche has also been shortlisted in the Ward Top Ten. The Taycan 4S uses a front-mounted + rear-mounted dual motor drive, with a total motor power of 390kW and a total torque of 640N · m. Its bright spot is the use of an 800V electric drive system. What’s more embarrassing is that the Taycan was recalled due to the failure of the electronic system that may cause power interruption. In the Chinese market, the Taycan has a total of 5,376 vehicles in the first nine months of this year, which is a very good result for a luxury pure electric vehicle with a starting price of 888,000 yuan.

Ford Electric Drive System

Representative model: Mustang Mach-E

Ford Mustang Mach-E offers two versions of single-motor and dual-motor models. The single-motor version is divided into 201kW and 224kW power adjustments; the dual-motor version is divided into 260kW and 359kW versions, corresponding to CLTC cruising ranges of 540km and 492km respectively. The 359kW GT version model only needs 3.65s to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h. In terms of appearance and strength, the Ford Mustang is no less than Tesla, but in terms of brand, the Mustang Mach-E still has room for improvement.

Modern 150kW electric system

Representative model: Hyundai KONA EV (Oncino pure electric)

Hyundai KONA EV’s domestic corresponding Oncino pure electric model, this system is somewhat controversial in Ward’s top ten, because previously, Hyundai KONA EV was recalled in South Korea due to battery fire problems. In the Chinese market, the domestic Oncino pure electric uses batteries produced by Ningde Times, which does not involve recalls. Consumers do not have to worry too much.

Toyota Hydrogen Fuel Cell System

Representative model: Mirai

The second-generation Mirai optimizes the structure design of the hydrogen storage device. The hydrogen storage tank is increased to three, the hydrogen carrying capacity is increased to 5.6KG, and the cruising range can reach 850 kilometers. The output power density of the fuel cell stack is increased to 5.4kW/L, and the maximum output power can reach 128kW. The maximum power of the vehicle’s drive motor is 134kW and the maximum torque is 300N · m. The car is currently only sold in the Japanese market, and there are no plans to introduce it in the domestic market for the time being.

summary

It should be noted that the "Ward Top Ten" selection is based on the evaluation of models sold in the United States, which has strong regional characteristics and only has a certain reference value for domestic consumers. Don’t be superstitious.

　　Sina Auto News, a few days ago, foreign media took a group of road test photos of the Jaguar XE SVR model. The new car will be equipped with a 5.0T V8 supercharged engine, which is expected to be officially unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September this year, and may be released at the Geneva Motor Show next year at the latest.

　　From the spy photos, as a high-performance model, the Jaguar XE SVR will have a more sporty appearance design than ordinary models. The front bumper is suspected to have two larger air intakes, and the side skirts have been widened. With the new two-color wheels and red brake calipers, it looks more sporty. From the rear, compared with ordinary models, the two-sided exhaust layout highlights the Jaguar XE SVR’s performance model identity.

　　In terms of power, the new car will be equipped with a 5.0T V8 supercharged engine, the maximum power is expected to exceed 500 horsepower, and the 0-96km/h acceleration time is expected to be about 4 seconds. In terms of transmission, the car will be matched with a 6-speed manual and an 8-speed automatic transmission, and equipped with a four-wheel drive system. In the future, the car will compete with high-performance models such as BMW M3 and AMG C 63.

　　Previously, at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, Jaguar officially unveiled the XE SV Project 8. Although the new car is not the final production version, we can still see that it will be the most powerful Jaguar model to date. It has a maximum power of 600 horsepower and a peak torque of 700 Nm.

　　The production version of the Jaguar XE SV Project 8 in the future is bound to have an impact on the dominance of models such as the M4 GTS in the market segment. Putting aside the powerful parameters, the huge rear wing alone is enough to suppress the opponent’s aura. Of course, we still don’t know whether the final production version can retain such a eye-catching design, but this is a very powerful model. And the Jaguar XE SVR that exposed spy photos this time is very closeJaguar XE SV Project 8 concept car.

??Editor-in-chief comments:Positioned as a pure electric medium and large SUV on the market, in terms of starting price 259,800, it can only be said that it is not cheap, but when seeing the official battery life data of 667km, it is a bit unbearable, which is a bit less benchmarking. After all, more and more cars in the same class either have a battery life of more than 700km, or the price is cheaper… At this time, someone wants to say, isn’t there a 802km battery life version of Zhijie R7? That’s right, but look at the price, 60,000 more than the whole price, but the battery life is about 140km more. Compared with other competitors who only need to spend 20,000 to 30,000 more to cover 150km up and down, the sense of choice of Zhijie R7 seems to be very tough. There is no impression that consumers will like it if they spend a little more.

??On September 24, 2024, at Huawei’s autumn full-scene new product launch conference, the Smart R7 was officially launched. The new car is positioned as a pure electric medium and large SUV, and it is also the first coupe SUV of Hongmeng Zhixing. It is produced on the Ling chassis platform and equipped with an intelligent road condition identification system. The whole system is equipped with an 800V silicon carbide high-voltage platform as standard, and is equipped with the HUAWEI ADS3.0 end-to-end human-like intelligent driving system that will be fully pushed. A total of 4 models are launched, and the price range is 25.98-33 9,800 yuan. Official data show that the order volume of the new car has exceeded 30,000 units in less than two weeks of pre-sale. Among them, the Max and Ultra versions will start mass delivery on October 15, and the Pro version will start mass delivery on November 15.

??The exterior of the new car adopts a similar design language. On the basis of the closed air intake grille, willow-leaf headlights are added and connected by a through belt, with a relatively wide front surround, which caters to the positioning of its own high-end new energy SUV. The lower air intake grille is equipped with an active air intake grille function (AGS), which can reduce the wind resistance coefficient. The side shape of the car is round and full, and the roof line starts to fall back from the B pillar, creating a unique back line of the coupe. The design of the four-wheel four corners is conducive to maximizing the cabin space. With the blessing of design details such as hidden door handles, frameless doors, and matte hollow double five-spoke wheels, it can fully display the dynamic beauty and fashion elements of its profile. The new car will be equipped with 20-inch double five-spoke wheels as standard, with optional 21-inch double ten-spoke wheels. The tires are Pirelli P-Zero series or Scorpion series, and the interior is also equipped with Brembo red brake calipers. The length, width and height of the body are 4956/1981/1634mm, and the wheelbase is 2950mm. The rear of the car adopts a minimalist style design, and the popular through taillight element is not absent. Due to the use of a hatchback design, the trunk opening is larger, which enhances the convenience of daily pickup. In terms of body color, in addition to the classic ceramic white, deep space gray, gilt black and metropolis red color scheme, there are also two new colors of purple and clear blue, a total of 6 colors to choose from.

??The car is equipped with the family’s iconic yacht-style environmentally friendly cockpit, equipped with HarmonyOS 4 smart cockpit and HUAWEI SOUND sound system, and also equipped with Huawei Dry + ADS 3.0 high-end intelligent driving assistance system, which supports high-level intelligent driving functions such as off-vehicle parking, valet parking, and summoning.
