However, US car owners always look for cheaper gas stations, track the number of gallons burned, and are very happy when they at least manage to save money on fuel. But how can a driver decrease consumption? Here are a few simple recommendations from the <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline"><a href="https://clementpreowned.com/auto-repair">professional mechanics</a></span>.</strong></p>
  41. <h3 style="text-align: justify">Filters and fuel itself</h3>
  42. <p style="text-align: justify">Fuel consumption is directly affected by a clogged air filter, a faulty fuel pump, a malfunctioning oxygen sensor (lambda probe), and an automatic transmission (and a constantly burning check engine). All of the above are technical faults that need to be fixed in any case, or they may lead to one of the <strong><a href="https://www.indyautoman.com/blog/most-expensive-breakdowns"><span style="text-decoration: underline">most expensive car breakdowns</span></a></strong>.</p>
  43. <p style="text-align: justify">Low-quality fuel may also increase consumption. You fill more gasoline with a lower octane number for the same money, but the engine will consume a larger quantity. At the same time, the motor will produce less power and, as a result, no savings will be achieved. Oddly enough, it is better to choose more expensive fuel &#8211; there is less risk of breakdowns and a greater chance of economy.</p>
  44. <h3 style="text-align: justify">Driving style</h3>
  45. <p style="text-align: justify">Dynamic acceleration and the general intense nature of the ride are guaranteed to increase the amount of fuel consumed. The drivers should brake minimally, teaching themselves to adjust the speed more often by pressing and releasing the gas pedal. Jerky movement not only significantly increases the vehicle&#8217;s appetite but also leads to its rapid wear. At the same time, a little observation and the ability to look ahead can, for example, tell you that the yellow light has already turned on at the next intersection, and there is no point in accelerating on the way to it. The difference in the consumption of a smoothly moving car with a vehicle starting from traffic light to traffic light can reach 0.5 gallons per 60 miles.</p>
  46. <p style="text-align: justify">If you have a manual transmission, running the engine at too high or low speeds can lead to increased consumption because the most economical mode for the average four-cylinder engine is around 2,500 revolutions. And cranking it up to 5,000, as well as driving with tension at extremely low levels, will not give any savings. A guide can be the engine&#8217;s nameplate data, or, more precisely, its maximum torque, near which the tachometer needle should be kept.</p>
  47. <div>
  48. </div>
  49. <h3 style="text-align: justify">Aerodynamics</h3>
  50. <p style="text-align: justify">This factor is almost unnoticeable in the city and begins to have an effect at speeds of about 60 mph. Of course, the <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline"><a href="https://www.grc.nasa.gov/www/k-12/VirtualAero/BottleRocket/airplane/dragco.html">aerodynamic coefficient</a></span></strong> of the car is set by the manufacturer, and you can&#8217;t change it for the better. But it is easy to make things worse, for example, by attaching a roof rack, which provides an extra half-liter of consumption even without a load. You also need to prepare for increased costs if you install non-standard rims that protrude noticeably from the wheel arches. The aerodynamics of the bottom of a car is generally a complex thing; for example, wheel arches are one of the main sources of high-speed noise and extra tenths in the aerodynamic coefficient. It is clear that all kinds of spoilers, aprons, and other body kits, in most cases, worsen the picture of the initial airflow around the car and increase consumption.</p>
  51. <p style="text-align: justify">An unreasonably high speed, for the same reason, will require additional expenses at the gas station. Even on an empty toll road, the car will consume noticeably more fuel when accelerating over 70 mph and maintaining this speed. And if you try to drive faster on a highway, combining frequent overtaking with heavy braking, the fuel gauge will rapidly drop, indicating you are in extremely uneconomical mode. And simply, the higher the speed, the higher the consumption.</p>
  52. <p style="text-align: justify"><strong>So, a summary of what is needed to reduce fuel consumption is as follows:</strong></p>
  53. <ul style="text-align: justify">
  54. <li>If possible, a serviceable car that rolls easily on the road;</li>
  55. <li>High-quality fuel;</li>
  56. <li>Maximum smooth driving, with minimal use of brakes;</li>
  57. <li>Selection of optimal engine speed (in the range of maximum torque);</li>
  58. <li>Aerodynamic cleanliness of the body;</li>
  59. <li>Driving at optimal rather than maximum speed.</li>
  60. </ul>
  61. <p style="text-align: justify">If you feel that your gas expenses are growing with the same driving style, it is a clear indicator that something is wrong in the car, and it is worth scheduling diagnostics at a service station.</p><p>The post <a href="https://auto-moto1.com/how-to-reduce-fuel-consumption-simple-steps-everyone-can-take/">How to Reduce Fuel Consumption: Simple Steps Everyone Can Take</a> first appeared on <a href="https://auto-moto1.com">Auto Moto 1 - Car Repair Advice - Get Top Tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

This transition presents a chance for emerging automakers to capitalize on the electric vehicle buzz, akin to what Tesla achieved over a decade ago. Presently, numerous newcomers aim to surpass the established dominance in the EV market. Yet, Tesla, conceived by Elon Musk, continues to stand as the frontrunner in this niche, boasting models tailored to various preferences and financial considerations. If you&#8217;ve been thinking about buying an eco-friendly car for a while, test the flagship models at a <strong><a href="https://clementpreowned.com/blog/tesla-in-mo-dealership">Tesla dealer near you</a></strong>. In the meantime, let&#8217;s talk about those that have not yet achieved the same popularity as Tesla, but have potential.</p>
  74. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Rivian</h3>
  75. <p style="text-align: justify;">Founded in 2009, Rivian is an American company based in Irvine, California, known for its focus on electric trucks and SUVs. Notable for its commitment to sustainability, Rivian made a significant impact with its R1T pickup and R1S SUV, quickly becoming an exciting player in the EV market. What sets Rivian apart is its focus on adventure and off-road capabilities, a departure from typical commuter-focused city EV makers. Even though the company&#8217;s models are not yet on the list of <strong><a href="https://clementpreowned.com/blog/mo-best-electric-cars">favorite electric vehicles</a></strong>, the situation can change. By targeting consumers who want reliability without sacrificing sustainability, Rivian has entered a unique market segment by building a loyal fan base through community engagement and iterative design improvements based on customer feedback.</p>
  76. <p style="text-align: justify;">Rivian&#8217;s collaborations with industry giants like Ford and Amazon have further strengthened its position. Ford&#8217;s strategic partnership gave Rivian access to resources and expertise, and Amazon&#8217;s willingness to purchase 100,000 electric vans underscored its confidence in Rivian&#8217;s technological prowess.</p>
  77. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Polestar</h3>
  78. <p style="text-align: justify;">Polestar has a rich history dating back to 1996, when it was an integral part of Volvo&#8217;s factory team in the Touring Car Championship. Although the company was acquired by China&#8217;s Geely Automotive in 2010, Volvo regained ownership in 2015. Today, Polestar, under the umbrella of Geely Holding Group, Volvo&#8217;s parent company, is a formidable competitor to EV pioneer Tesla.</p>
  79. <p style="text-align: justify;">Known for their sleek design and high performance, Polestar&#8217;s models boast advanced safety features, responsive electric motors, and exceptional handling. The brand&#8217;s journey began with its participation in the <strong><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_Touring_Car_Championship">Swedish Touring Car Championship</a></strong>, and in 2005, motorsport specialists Cyan Racing transformed it into Polestar. Since then, Polestar has played a key role in producing components for Volvo racing cars.</p>
  80. <p style="text-align: justify;">In 2017, Polestar officially unveiled its first car, the &#8220;Polestar 1,&#8221; a 600 hp hybrid coupe. The car features a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, like the Volvo XC90 T8, and two electric motors with a range of 95 miles on a full charge. Limited to just 500 examples in its first year of production, the Polestar 1 was a milestone.</p>
  81. <p style="text-align: justify;">Polestar&#8217;s recognition continued with the release of the Polestar 2, which won over forty awards, including such honors as Remarkable Design Innovation, Innovation of the Year, Golden Bagel, and even the IG Nobel Prize.</p>
  82. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Lucid Motors</h3>
  83. <p style="text-align: justify;">Though a newcomer in the electric car arena, Lucid has made a resounding entrance with its debut model, the Lucid Air. This innovative EV stands toe-to-toe with well-established brands like Mercedes-Benz, Tesla, and Porsche, showcasing a remarkable blend of power and range. Boasting over 1,000 hp in its high-end models and an impressive range exceeding 500 miles in select trims, the Lucid Air is a testament to the company&#8217;s commitment to cutting-edge technology.</p>
  84. <p style="text-align: justify;">As a company, Lucid Motors is spearheading advancements in electric auto engineering. The Lucid Air competes favorably in terms of performance and introduces an element of luxury with a price point surpassing that of its counterparts, Mercedes, Tesla, and Porsche. As a promising player in the electric car market, Lucid Motors is set to redefine standards and expectations, positioning itself as a noteworthy contender among established automotive giants.</p><p>The post <a href="https://auto-moto1.com/ev-companies-with-a-big-potential-that-already-available-in-the-us/">EV companies with a big potential that already available in the US</a> first appeared on <a href="https://auto-moto1.com">Auto Moto 1 - Car Repair Advice - Get Top Tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

However, that might occasionally seem uninspired. Customizing a few parts of your bike can assist in showcasing your individuality and sense of style. Here are some doable ideas for giving your bike a stylish makeover that will leave people speechless.</p>
  97. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Add customized decals</h2>
  98. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="https://backyarddesignusa.com/">Motorcycle decals are little personalized stickers</a></strong> for your bike frame and other parts. These decals, created and printed onto adhesive vinyl, are ideal for bike adornment. It&#8217;s common to see them on the top frame, directly in front of the seat post, but you can mount them anywhere. It might be on your helmet or even under the handlebars.</p>
  99. <p style="text-align: justify;">Select motorcycle decals that go with your style, and apply them carefully. You want to ensure the bike is clean before adding your decals. The decals may not attach correctly if the bike has dust or grime.</p>
  100. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Invest in heavy-duty tires.</h2>
  101. <p style="text-align: justify;">Heavy-duty tires provide an aesthetic as well as a functional enhancement. They play a crucial role in positioning your bike on the road, especially while making sudden turns at high speeds, allowing you to prevent a motorbike crash. If you like to go off-road, search for all-terrain tires.</p>
  102. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Select a customized paint job.</h2>
  103. <p style="text-align: justify;">Choosing a custom paint job is one simple yet effective way to personalize your bike. It allows you to flaunt your individuality and turns your bike into a unique work of art. Spray paint is ideal for DIY enthusiasts like you since it is readily available, reasonably priced, and simple to work with and allows you to express your creativity with designs.</p>
  104. <p style="text-align: justify;">If accuracy and flawlessness are more important to you, consider hiring a skilled painter. It is crucial to remember that preparation is essential before doing anything, and removing some parts when painting will ensure that paint doesn&#8217;t damage unwanted parts.</p>
  105. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Change the bike seat.</h2>
  106. <p style="text-align: justify;">The bike seat is more than a seat—it epitomizes comfort and style. You can find a more comfortable option if you dislike the seat that came with your bike or it has acquired tears. You can choose from various seat types and styles to discover one that complements your riding style and personality. Perhaps you prefer the traditional leather bike seat. Not only does it have great style, but it also ages well.</p>
  107. <p style="text-align: justify;">If comfort is your primary concern, consider getting a bike seat with gel inserts or more padding. This can make long and difficult bike rides easier and provide extra support. Replace the old seat with one that fits your needs for comfort and style, then make any necessary adjustments.</p>
  108. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Customize with bike accessories.</h2>
  109. <p style="text-align: justify;">Finally, bike accessories are as big as your imagination, from bike lights and signals to tank pads that improve the motorcycle&#8217;s grip on your body. So feel free to explore and discover the ideal accessories that will make your bike feel like an extension of yourself!</p>
  110. <h1 style="text-align: justify;">Wrapping up</h1>
  111. <p style="text-align: justify;">Customizing your bike can make it unique, more loveable, and enjoyable.</p><p>The post <a href="https://auto-moto1.com/helpful-tips-for-customizing-your-bike/">HELPFUL TIPS FOR CUSTOMIZING YOUR BIKE</a> first appeared on <a href="https://auto-moto1.com">Auto Moto 1 - Car Repair Advice - Get Top Tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  123. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin-bottom:20px;"><img width="823" height="544" src="https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Dream-Journey.jpg" class="attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Dream-Journey.jpg 823w, https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Dream-Journey-300x198.jpg 300w, https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Dream-Journey-768x508.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 823px) 100vw, 823px" /></div><p style="text-align: justify;">Traveling by car brings a lot of emotions. It is more comfortable and less expensive, especially if you travel with a family or a big company. Some people prefer traveling by their everyday car, while others <a href="https://www.indyautoman.com/blog/travel-van"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">buy a travel van</span></a> in anticipation of life-on-the-wheels romance. However, to avoid unforeseen situations on the road, any vehicle, whether a crossover or a camper van, must be carefully prepared. Even a technically sound and new car needs checking before a long journey.</p>
  124. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Checking the technical condition of the car</h2>
  125. <p style="text-align: justify;">It is easier to travel in summer than winter, but experienced mechanics from Indy Auto Man warn that one should never skip maintenance before a long journey. They offer a checklist of necessary preparations and explain what to expect when <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.indyautoman.com/service-indianapolis">scheduling a visit to a service</a></span>.</p>
  126. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Engine</h3>
  127. <p style="text-align: justify;">If the engine is running poorly, and there is doubt that it will be able to overcome a solid distance, it is better to undergo a diagnosis. Plan an engine check a few weeks before departure to have time to correct the problems found.</p>
  128. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Level and quality of technical fluids</h3>
  129. <p style="text-align: justify;">If the car has been serviced long ago, it is better to change the engine oil. When moving at high speed, the consumption of lubricant increases. Replace oil and air filters if necessary to protect engine parts from wear. Take 1 or 5 liters of the required engine oil for topping up. Evaluate the brake and hydraulic fluid, gearbox oil, and fluid in the windshield washer reservoir.</p>
  130. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Brake system</h3>
  131. <p style="text-align: justify;">Driving safety depends on the serviceability of the brake system, especially at high speeds. Check the condition of the brake pads and discs. If necessary, replace them.</p>
  132. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Tire condition check</h3>
  133. <p style="text-align: justify;">Pay attention to the condition of the tires, especially if you have been using rubber for more than one season. The remaining tread depth must be greater than 0.06 inches. If the wear on the rubber is high, the baffles will begin to wear out. Old rubber gradually dries out, and cracks may appear on the rim. When moving at high speed, such a tire may burst.</p>
  134. <p style="text-align: justify;">Inspect the tires for defects: bumps and scuffs. Check tire pressure. Set it to the level you need to ride on the highway &#8211; about 2-3 units higher than regular. Tire pressure can be monitored using a pressure gauge. The car with the correct tire pressure will drive well and not consume too much fuel.</p>
  135. <p style="text-align: justify;">On the road, check the tire pressure every 300 miles. If planning a long trip, take a second and third spare wheel. Sometimes two wheels break through the pits at once.</p>
  136. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Suspension and chassis</h3>
  137. <p style="text-align: justify;">Outside a big city like Indianapolis, you may encounter bad roads. If the suspension or running gear parts are worn out, they may fail while traveling. Checking the chassis and suspension should be carried out in a car service on a lift. If mechanics find backlashes and leaks, the parts will require replacement.</p>
  138. <p style="text-align: justify;">Check and adjust wheel alignment and wheel balance. If you do not solve problems with wheel alignment, the car may lose control. In the best case, you will return from a trip with badly worn tires.</p>
  139. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Battery</h3>
  140. <p style="text-align: justify;">Determine the level of electrolyte in the battery and the charging. Also, study the density of the electrolyte. If the terminals are dirty, they should be cleaned. You can take a launcher with you on the road. If the battery is too old, it&#8217;s best to replace it.</p>
  141. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Air conditioner</h3>
  142. <p style="text-align: justify;">In hot weather, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_air_conditioning"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">air conditioner</span></a> will operate at full. If it has not been serviced for a long time, it is advisable to fill the freon and check the system for leaks. After all, the refrigerant evaporates even in the sealed system. When the level drops, the device cannot work correctly. You can also add oil to freon &#8211; it is responsible for lubricating the compressor. If the oil level is low, the compressor may fail. Check the condition of the compressor drive belt. If there is damage, the element must be replaced.</p>
  143. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Lighting</h3>
  144. <p style="text-align: justify;">Check headlights. See how the high and low beam lights are burning. Evaluate the work of turning, fog, emergency, and brake lights. The long journey involves night crossings. The optics must be cleaned of dust and dirt. If necessary, replace the lamps.</p>
  145. <h3 style="text-align: justify;">Wipers</h3>
  146. <p style="text-align: justify;">Pay attention to the condition of the wipers, especially if you will be moving around during the rainy season: worn-out ones should be replaced. Otherwise, deposits may form on the windshield, impairing driving safety.</p>
  147. <p style="text-align: justify;">Check windows and mirrors. If there are damages that can adversely affect the safety of movement, it is better to replace them. Take along a liquid that removes insects from the side mirrors and windshield.</p>
  148. <p style="text-align: justify;">Any responsible driver understands the importance of preparing the car before a summer trip. This will make the adventure comfortable and enjoyable and help avoid accidents and other undesirable situations. Experts remind us: checking the vehicle&#8217;s technical condition must be performed regularly, not only before a long trip. And it is best to rely on professional mechanics &#8211; specialists will carry out all the necessary procedures, and you will save time. The Indy Auto Man team wishes you safe and enjoyable trips!</p><p>The post <a href="https://auto-moto1.com/dream-journey-how-to-prepare-for-a-summer-road-trip/">Dream Journey: How to Prepare for a Summer Road Trip</a> first appeared on <a href="https://auto-moto1.com">Auto Moto 1 - Car Repair Advice - Get Top Tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  160. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin-bottom:20px;"><img width="800" height="450" src="https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Car-Exhausts-Failing.jpg" class="attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Car-Exhausts-Failing.jpg 800w, https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Car-Exhausts-Failing-300x169.jpg 300w, https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Car-Exhausts-Failing-768x432.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Beginning in 2011, new vehicles were required to have exhaust filters. Two years later, authorities started requiring the same filters in heavy-duty vehicles. Fitted in exhaust systems to help remove or reduce particulate matter, the DPF (diesel particulate filters) have become controversial after new research revealed that they were not as efficient as some authorities claimed them to be.</span></p>
  161. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Experiments conducted by a team led by the University of Birmingham’s Professor Roy Harrison showed that while DPF efficiently eliminated larger-sized particulate matter, the filters cannot remove or reduce smaller or ultrafine particles. This contradicts what the DfT (Department of Transport) said about the filters: that they helped lower air pollution levels and their impacts by filtering particulate matter.</span></p>
  162. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The smaller or ultrafine liquid particles are smaller than 2.5</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">µm and 10µm</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">. They are formed after organic materials incompletely ignite. In 20120, the World Health Organization (WHO) classified these particles as carcinogenic. Ultrafine liquid particles are also linked to thousands of environmentally related premature deaths. They are categorised at the same risk level as asbestos and arsenic.</span></p>
  163. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the 2021 air quality guidelines of the WHO, there is significant mention of the dangers of ultrafine particles, including the fact that they can easily move throughout the body. </span></p>
  164. <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Research process and findings</b></p>
  165. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Professor Harrison and his team gathered air quality data from a Marylebone Road (London) monitoring station. AQ sampling in the area has been a practice since 2010 and the data collected is one of the world’s most comprehensive datasets. </span></p>
  166. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The findings showed a major reduction in the larger particles, such as black carbon (81% decline between the years 2014 and 2021). For ultrafine particles, however, the reduction was only around 26%. Nanometres, the smallest particles, weren’t affected at all. This is a concerning discovery as ultrafine particles are highly dangerous and can become persistent and widespread.</span></p>
  167. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">He also stressed the need for more consistent and stricter actions and measures aimed at reducing toxic diesel vehicle emissions. Governments and authorities should also exert more effort in promoting electric vehicles (EVs), especially among car owners. </span></p>
  168. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ultrafine particles at the Marylebone Road were recorded at very high levels &#8211; more than 20,000 per cubic cm, numbers that are more than the WHO AQ guidelines. </span></p>
  169. <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Emissions and the Dieselgate scandal</b></p>
  170. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Vehicle emissions have been around for years, but they became quite popular in 2015 when the Dieselgate scandal happened. It was in September of that year when the Volkswagen Group was accused of using defeat devices for Audi and VW diesel vehicles in the US.</span></p>
  171. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">These devices reduce emissions when they sense that a vehicle is being tested in the lab. The test is necessary for determining emissions compliance; so, the lower the emission levels, the better for carmakers as the vehicle is easily approved for selling.</span></p>
  172. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">This eco-friendly state of the vehicle only holds within laboratory conditions, however. Once the vehicle is out on the roads for real-world driving, it goes back to emitting alarming amounts of nitrogen oxides that often went over the legal limits by up to 40 times. </span></p>
  173. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Volkswagen did not inform their customers about the defeat devices. Authorities fined VW, asked them to recall affected vehicles, and pay off affected car owners. </span></p>
  174. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Other vehicle manufacturers embroiled in the fiasco include Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Nissan, and Renault. British carmaker Vauxhall is one of the newest on the list, with </span><a href="https://www.claimexperts.co.uk/vauxhall-diesel-emissions-claims-dieselgate-compensation/"><b>Vauxhall emissions claim</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> cases starting only a few years ago. Nevertheless, there are already hundreds of thousands of affected vehicles in the UK alone.</span></p>
  175. <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Dangerous NOx</b></p>
  176. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">NOx emissions negatively affect the environment and can change your life. </span></p>
  177. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nitrogen oxide has nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide. These contribute to the formation of smog, acid rain, and ground-level ozone. This type of ozone harms the environment as it damages vegetation.                                                                                                                              </span></p>
  178. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>If you are exposed to NOx emissions, the health impacts vary from t mild to life-threatening:</strong></p>
  179. <ul style="text-align: justify;">
  180. <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Anxiety</span></li>

  189. <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cardiovascular disease</span></li>
  190. <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Premature death</span></li>
  191. </ul>
  192. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Authorities believe that carmakers are responsible for exposing drivers to these health impacts. Additionally, these manufacturers lied so they could profit; they never considered the health and safety of their customers. A </span>diesel claim<span style="font-weight: 400;"> should be bought against them.</span></p>
  193. <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Am I qualified to file my diesel claim?</b></p>
  194. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Only certain models manufactured in particular years are affected by the </span>diesel emissions <span style="font-weight: 400;">scandal. Therefore, the first thing you should do before starting your claims case is to verify your eligibility. Head on over to </span><a href="https://www.claimexperts.co.uk/vauxhall-diesel-emissions-claims-dieselgate-compensation/"><b>ClaimExperts.co.uk</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to get all the information you need to determine if you are qualified to receive compensation through a </span>diesel claim<span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
  195. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once you are done with the verification process, sit down with an emissions expert and discuss your plan of action. Decide whether you want to join a Group Litigation Order or GLO (similar to the Americans’ class-action lawsuit) or if you want yours to be a separate individual case.</span></p><p>The post <a href="https://auto-moto1.com/car-exhausts-failing-to-filter-most-dangerous-particles-experts-suggest/">Car Exhausts Failing to Filter Most Dangerous Particles, Experts Suggest</a> first appeared on <a href="https://auto-moto1.com">Auto Moto 1 - Car Repair Advice - Get Top Tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  207. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin-bottom:20px;"><img width="1280" height="720" src="https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/used-car-loan.jpg" class="attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/used-car-loan.jpg 1280w, https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/used-car-loan-300x169.jpg 300w, https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/used-car-loan-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/used-car-loan-768x432.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" /></div><p style="text-align: justify;">The second-hand car industry in India is huge. It deals with different aspects of selling a pre-owned car. This industry grows manifold every year. The loan industry associated with this also grows along with it.</p>
  208. <p style="text-align: justify;">The industry includes different car-financing options, such as used-car loans or second-hand car loans. It consists of the working of the market and the sale of cars.</p>
  209. <p style="text-align: justify;">Considering that India has a large population and we are still a developing country, a lot of people in our country can not afford to buy new cars. Many people, thus, opt for second-hand cars.</p>
  210. <p style="text-align: justify;">Of late, the industry has been growing faster, since people in India are becoming more financially literate due to a myriad of resources available virtually. People have finally realised that a car is a depleting asset. Hence, buying a second-hand car in good condition makes more sense than buying a new car.</p>
  211. <p style="text-align: justify;">Hence, buying a used car is an interesting prospect these days. Several loans and financing options are available for used cars as well.  However, India&#8217;s second-hand or used car loan industry is different from other countries.</p>
  212. <p style="text-align: justify;">Let us discuss the key factors that make the Indian used car loan industry unique.</p>
  213. <p style="text-align: justify;">Why is the Indian used car loan industry unique?</p>
  214. <p style="text-align: justify;">The used-car loan industry is huge globally. However, in India, the industry is unique due to some market conditions that exist only in this country. These are:</p>
  215. <p style="text-align: justify;">Market size</p>
  216. <p style="text-align: justify;">In India, as mentioned above, we have a large population of people who cannot afford a brand new car. This is primarily why they are more inclined towards taking a loan to buy a second-hand car.</p>
  217. <p style="text-align: justify;">The synergy of these two factors can be why India&#8217;s used car loan industry is 50% larger than the new car loan industry, which is unlike other countries. It has an estimate of $20 billion revenue per year in this industry.</p>
  218. <p style="text-align: justify;">The number of cars per capita, compared to the western countries, is lower in India’s used-car industry.</p>
  219. <p style="text-align: justify;">However, the actual number is higher. Hence, the market for used car loans or second-hand car loans is humongous.</p>
  220. <p style="text-align: justify;">Different financiers</p>
  221. <p style="text-align: justify;">The second thing unique in the Indian second-hand car loan industry is that banks are the primary lenders here. Banks are the most common loan providers in India, followed by non-banking financial organisations that also offer a variety of auto-loan alternatives. Captive finance companies (which are subsidiaries of various manufacturers) account for a minor percentage of loan providers in India. Using a used-car loan EMI calculator, one can clearly see that the <a href="https://www.tatacapital.com/vehicle-loan/used-car-loan/interest-rates-and-charges.html"><strong>used-car loans interest rate</strong></a> in India are substantially lower and safer.</p>
  222. <p style="text-align: justify;">This is unique to the Indian market. In other countries the main loan option when it comes to used cars are captive finance companies Bbanks are rarely involved.</p>
  223. <p style="text-align: justify;">Using the same EMI calculator, it&#8217;s clear that captive financing companies are the best choice abroad.</p>
  224. <p style="text-align: justify;">Product offering</p>
  225. <p style="text-align: justify;">In India, unlike western countries, there are loans exclusively for used-car loans or second-hand car loans. They are not available for buying a second-hand car and are not for buying the warranty, accessories, etc. for it.</p>
  226. <p style="text-align: justify;">The reason behind it is that the primary loan-givers in India are the banks and non-banking financial companies, neither of which deal with car services.</p>
  227. <p style="text-align: justify;">The market is in progress</p>
  228. <p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://www.tatacapital.com/vehicle-loan/used-car-loan.html"><strong>Used-car loan</strong></a> or second-hand car loan market in India is still developing and growing. Hence, the market is still quite unorganised and unregulated. The concept of credit-rating companies is new to India; therefore, there are not many credit rating agencies. The current ones that are there take some time to finish the checks due to their novelty.</p>
  229. <p style="text-align: justify;">However, with digitisation, more credit-rating companies are entering the market, such as companies that are only online without a brick-and-mortar office. Moreover, as India is developing, the second-hand loan market is also slowly getting more organised.</p>
  230. <p style="text-align: justify;">Conclusion</p>
  231. <p style="text-align: justify;">The used-car loan industry in India is unique compared to other countries in every aspect, from its size to the participating players. It&#8217;s interesting to note that even as a developing country, its valuation is in billions of dollars and is still growing exponentially.</p>

  244. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin-bottom:20px;"><img width="624" height="284" src="https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Free-Auto-Insurance-Quotes.png" class="attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Free-Auto-Insurance-Quotes.png 624w, https://auto-moto1.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Free-Auto-Insurance-Quotes-300x137.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px" /></div><p style="text-align: justify;">There are a few basic bills that almost every household has to pay, and car insurance is one of those. If you drive a vehicle, auto insurance coverage is mandatory, so it’s an expense that people are essentially forced to pay, that is, if they want to drive.</p>
  245. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  246. <p style="text-align: justify;">The best way to get a better rate for the coverage you need is to review <strong><a href="https://gladiatorsinsurance.com">free auto insurance quotes</a></strong>. The internet has made shopping for the cheapest car insurance fast and easy. In about ten minutes, you can review the best rates from regional and national brokers.</p>
  247. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  248. <p style="text-align: justify;">Most people can save hundreds of dollars simply by taking a few minutes to review quotes online. You can even use your smartphone to check rates and buy a policy with the major providers.</p>
  249. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  250. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Car Insurance Price Factors</strong></p>
  251. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  252. <p style="text-align: justify;">Learning about the main factors that go into calculating your auto insurance estimate will be the best way to know how to reduce those costs.</p>
  253. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  254. <p style="text-align: justify;">Although there are many factors involved in determining your auto insurance quote, the three main factors that your insurance company will ask about are:</p>
  255. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  256. <p style="text-align: justify;">1) Your Age and Gender</p>
  257. <ol style="text-align: justify;" start="2">
  258. <li>Your driving record,</li>
  259. </ol>
  260. <p style="text-align: justify;">2) Type of vehicle you drive</p>
  261. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  262. <p style="text-align: justify;">Insurance companies still want your business, most of the time, no matter what these factors say about you, but it can cost you a lot more if you’re considered a high-risk driver.</p>
  263. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  264. <p style="text-align: justify;">Your driving record. Your driving record is sort of a brand in itself, telling the insurance company if you are a safe driver or risky behind the wheel. The more flagrant the violations that you have in your DMV file, the more you will pay for coverage.</p>
  265. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  266. <p style="text-align: justify;">If you have serious violations, like a DUI or several at-fault accidents, you can expect to pay double and maybe even triple the rates for a safe motorist. In short, it pays to be a safe driver. If you do have a violation, take action, so your rates don’t go up.</p>
  267. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  268. <p style="text-align: justify;">Start by taking a driver’s education course and going to traffic school to get rid of tickets. While it takes a bit of your time, it can clear outstanding tickets and lower your premiums. Respecting the road rules is a sure way to maintain a good driving record and keep your rates low.</p>
  269. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  270. <p style="text-align: justify;">Your vehicle. You probably already know that a high-performance sports car with a big engine will cost you more for car insurance coverage. Foreign vehicles also come with costly repairs and often cost much more to replace. Vehicles with a smaller engine, low mileage, and lower replacement value are sure <strong><a href="https://directautoinsurance.org/instant-auto-insurance-no-down-payment/">ways to get cheap car insurance with low down payments</a>.</strong></p>
  271. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  272. <p style="text-align: justify;">Age and Sex. Young drivers under 20 years of age are some of the riskiest motorists on the road. Even worse, they are the most distracted drivers, often texting and talking on their cellphones while driving. Rates start to fall around 25 for most drivers and get even cheaper after 40.</p>
  273. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  274. <p style="text-align: justify;">The debate rages about whether women or men are better drivers. The truth is women pay less for the same auto insurance coverage, with other factors being equal. Women just don’t take as many risks as their male counterparts. The age and the sex of the insured driver will play a big role in the rates paid.</p>
  275. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  276. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Get Cheaper Insurance with Direct Rates Online </strong></p>
  277. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  278. <p style="text-align: justify;">Getting the best rates on auto insurance is a challenging task that can frustrate most people. Many people ask, &#8220;how do I know I&#8217;m getting the best rate?&#8221; or &#8220;am I getting adequate protection?&#8221;</p>
  279. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  280. <p style="text-align: justify;">These are all valid questions. In reality, the best way to<strong> <a href="https://goodtogoinsurance.org/car-insurance-under-100-month/">get lower auto insurance rates</a> </strong>and solid coverage is by shopping around online. Direct insurers have some of the cheapest available rates, and this is because their costs are lower, and these savings get passed onto consumers. Many people save $500 or more by getting covered with direct insurers. Get your free auto insurance quote in about five minutes and see how much you can save.</p>
  281. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  282. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Money Saving Car Insurance Tips </strong></p>
  283. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  284. <p style="text-align: justify;">A useful tip is simply dropping collision coverage if you have an older car (more than seven years old). Insurance claims are limited to the value on the &#8220;books,&#8221; so you probably won&#8217;t get much anyway, even if you do file a claim. It generally makes sense to drop collision insurance when your yearly premium exceeds ten percent of the car&#8217;s book value.</p>
  285. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  286. <p style="text-align: justify;">Get a higher deductible of $1,000 or more. This simple tip can save you about 10% of the yearly premium. If you are a safe driver and have adequate savings, a high deductible policy can save you hundreds each year.</p>
  287. <p style="text-align: justify;">
  288. <p style="text-align: justify;">Most importantly, compare at least ten 10 car insurance quotes. Most comparison sites can give you ten or more quotes, and some will supply you with up to 20 free auto insurance quotes. Get started with your free auto insurance quote and save more money on the auto insurance you need.</p>

  305. <p style="text-align: justify;">In the realm of cinema, few genres have the power to captivate audiences like car movies. These adrenaline-pumping films have been a significant part of cinematic history, offering more than just thrilling chases and high-speed action. They provide a unique lens through which we can explore the cultural fabric of society, reflecting our fascination with freedom, rebellion, and the pursuit of the American dream. In this article, we delve into the profound cultural significance of car movies, showcasing their impact on our collective consciousness.</p>
  306. <p style="text-align: justify;">Hitting the Gas: A Need for Speed</p>
  307. <p style="text-align: justify;">The Birth of a Genre</p>
  308. <p style="text-align: justify;">The roots of car movies can be traced back to the early 20th century. As automobiles became more accessible and popular, filmmakers recognized their potential as cinematic icons. Classic films like &#8220;The Fast and the Furious&#8221; (1955) and &#8220;Bullitt&#8221; (1968) laid the foundation for the genre, introducing audiences to the thrill of high-speed chases and breathtaking stunts.</p>
  309. <p style="text-align: justify;">Reflection of American Identity</p>
  310. <p style="text-align: justify;">Car movies have often mirrored the American experience, celebrating individualism and the open road. They capture the essence of the American dream, where anyone with a car can pursue endless possibilities. Iconic films like &#8220;Easy Rider&#8221; (1969) and &#8220;Thelma &amp; Louise&#8221; (1991) have highlighted the sense of freedom that comes with hitting the highway, sparking a deep connection with viewers who yearn for adventure.</p>
  311. <p style="text-align: justify;">Rebel with a Cause</p>
  312. <p style="text-align: justify;">Car movies frequently revolve around characters who challenge authority and societal norms. These films portray the rebels, the outlaws, and the mavericks who refuse to conform. In &#8220;Rebel Without a Cause&#8221; (1955), James Dean&#8217;s character, Jim Stark, rebels against the conformist culture of the 1950s, symbolizing the restlessness of youth.</p>
  313. <p style="text-align: justify;">Car as a Symbol</p>
  314. <p style="text-align: justify;">Cars themselves have become symbols of power, identity, and aspiration. Whether it&#8217;s the sleek Batmobile from the Batman franchise or the iconic DeLorean from &#8220;Back to the Future&#8221; (1985), cars in movies represent more than just transportation; they embody the characters&#8217; personalities and ambitions.</p>
  315. <p style="text-align: justify;">Gender Dynamics</p>
  316. <p style="text-align: justify;">Car movies have also played a role in challenging traditional gender roles. In &#8220;Mad Max: Fury Road&#8221; (2015), Charlize Theron&#8217;s character, Imperator Furiosa, takes the wheel as a formidable female lead, breaking stereotypes and inspiring a new generation of strong, independent women.</p>
  317. <p style="text-align: justify;">Cultural Evolution</p>
  318. <p style="text-align: justify;">Over the decades, car movies have evolved to reflect changing cultural values and concerns. In &#8220;Cars&#8221; (2006), a Pixar animated film, the cars themselves are anthropomorphized, addressing issues like urbanization, environmentalism, and the impact of technology on society.</p>
  319. <p style="text-align: justify;">Global Appeal</p>
  320. <p style="text-align: justify;">While car movies are often associated with American culture, their appeal transcends borders. Films like &#8220;The Italian Job&#8221; (1969) and &#8220;Fast &amp; Furious&#8221; franchises have gained international popularity, showcasing the universal fascination with fast cars and daring stunts.</p>
  321. <p style="text-align: justify;">Conclusion</p>
  322. <p style="text-align: justify;">In conclusion (avoiding cliches), car movies have left an indelible mark on our cultural landscape. They continue to serve as a dynamic canvas for exploring themes of freedom, rebellion, and the pursuit of dreams. Whether you&#8217;re a gearhead or simply in search of an adrenaline rush, these films offer a thrilling ride through the rich tapestry of human experience, all from behind the wheel of a cinematic masterpiece. So, buckle up and enjoy the journey through the cultural significance of car movies.</p>

However, the truth of the matter is that the best time to sell your car depends upon far too many factors for any single time limit to be given as the perfect time to sell. What we can say is that, beyond your personal preference, the best time to sell will depend both upon the condition of the car and the condition of the market at the time. Some people might tout around five years as the best time to shift a car, but if the market isn’t great then there are those that might choose to wait a bit longer. In a post-pandemic world where car manufacturing has taken such a significant hit, these are certainly the concerns on peoples’ minds.</p>
  369. <p style="text-align: justify;">One thing we can say for sure though is that if you are looking for the best possible price in cash for your car, then a reputable dealership with access to a large-nationwide network of other dealerships is undoubtedly the best option. As well as providing other benefits such as free appraisal, towing, and handling all DMV paperwork, such dealerships have the market reach and the restoration resources to find the best price for your car, profits from which can be passed on to you. If you’re selling your car in San Diego, <a href="https://cashforcarssandiego.net/">Cash for Cars in San Diego</a> is one such dealership, offering all this and more.</p>
  370. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Depreciation</strong></p>
  371. <p style="text-align: justify;">With the important caveat that the right time to sell your car is entirely up to you, there are a few guidelines that relate to the value of the car. Vehicles are depreciable assets, meaning that they diminish in value from the moment they are driven off the forecourt of the new car dealership. It is quite a staggering figure – and it seems to defy logic – but a car actually loses between 9% and 11% of its value the moment it’s purchased. This sharp drop continues, although it becomes gentler pretty quickly and the car’s value depreciates on a curve.</p>
  372. <p style="text-align: justify;">Accordingly, calculating the correct time to sell a car becomes a balancing act between the depreciation you are willing to allow for the use you would like to get out of it. Sell too quickly and you have lost quite a lot of money for almost no reason. Sell too late and the car becomes an albatross around your neck, in need of constant expensive maintenance and ultimately fetching very little.</p>
  373. <p style="text-align: justify;">And it isn’t just the car’s age that depreciates the overall value – mileage is the other big indicator. Just as with age, there are certain mileage checkpoints beyond which a car’s value will rapidly decrease. Sellers should bear in mind that most modern engines are designed to go for 150,000 miles before part replacements and maintenance become common. It is also true that below 30,000 miles, car sales are quite rare outside of those who do not prioritize owning the latest model at all times.</p>
  374. <p style="text-align: justify;">Of course, none of these rules can take the place of personal preference. And hard and fast injunctions such “sell between 60,000 and 100,000 miles” or “always sell before your car is ten years old” are as often disregarded as followed.</p>
  375. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Market </strong></p>
  376. <p style="text-align: justify;">Another factor that will certainly influence when a car is sold is the state of the market. Buyers should ask themselves not only “How is the market doing?” but “What is the current market demand for this make and model?” As mentioned, it is often very worthwhile waiting for favorable conditions before selling.</p>
  377. <p>Keeping up with your car&#8217;s maintenance is a great way to retain its value when you go to sell. For more ways you can retain your car&#8217;s value, please see the tips below.</p>

They have been around since the early 1900s, and their bikes are known for being tough, stylish, and iconic.</p>
  394. <p style="text-align: justify;">Unfortunately, Harley-Davidson motorcycles are expensive to buy new from a dealer &#8211; but you can get an affordable price online!</p>
  395. <p style="text-align: justify;">So check the best <a href="https://carrierhd.ca/motos-harley-davidson/usagees/"><strong>harley a vendre</strong></a> today itself!</p>
  396. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Here are few advantages of buying Harley Davidson Online:</strong></p>
  397. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Number #1: </strong>Save Money</p>
  398. <p style="text-align: justify;">When you buy a Harley-Davidson motorcycle online, the savings are incredible! You will instantly get an affordable price on your next bike. For example &#8211; if you&#8217;re looking for new 2018 models, they typically range from around $12k to over $30k, depending on which model and customization package you choose.</p>
  399. <p style="text-align: justify;">If that&#8217;s out of your budget, don&#8217;t worry because we have used Harleys in stock too! Our pre-owned motorcycles start at under $14K and go up from there based on how many miles and features it has. Either way, getting a great deal is easy when buying online!</p>
  400. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Number #2: </strong>Free Shipping</p>
  401. <p style="text-align: justify;">Another advantage of buying Harley Davidson Online is free shipping. Many dealerships offer free shipping on all new motorcycles! Of course, this will depend on where the dealership is located.</p>
  402. <p style="text-align: justify;">If you are looking for a bike in another state or country, there might be additional fees to ship it – but they will communicate that with you before purchase, so no surprises when your bike arrives at your door! Although, if you need to <strong><a href="https://www.roadrunnerautotransport.com/motorcycle-shipping">ship your Harley to the United States</a></strong>, you might have to use a third party shipping company.</p>
  403. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Number #3: </strong>No Dealer Fees</p>
  404. <p style="text-align: justify;">Most Harley Davidson dealerships have a ton of extra dealer fees which can add up quickly. This means if you want an accessory installed by them, such as a backrest or passenger seat- expect additional charges!</p>
  405. <p style="text-align: justify;">These types of accessories usually cost around $200; however, many times, installation isn&#8217;t included and charged separately. Some dealers also require their custom paint jobs before selling certain models too.<strong> </strong></p>
  406. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Number #4: </strong>Save on Financing</p>
  407. <p style="text-align: justify;">Dealerships make money by selling motorcycles &#8211; that&#8217;s a given. However, they also earn a lot of extra income from financing their new and used bikes. They will encourage you to sign up for an extended warranty plan or special loan with them when buying your motorcycle.</p>
  408. <p style="text-align: justify;">If you&#8217;re paying interest rates in the double digits, it means more is going back into their pockets!</p>
  409. <p style="text-align: justify;">There are no dealer fees when you buy Harley Davidson Online, so any type of financing is usually much cheaper! Many banks offer 0% APR if you have good credit &#8211; talk about free money!</p>
  410. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Conclusion: </strong></p>
  411. <p style="text-align: justify;">In conclusion, there are many advantages to buying Harley Davidson Online. You can save money on your new bike, get free shipping and financing, not pay dealer fees, and all for a great price.</p><p>The post <a href="https://auto-moto1.com/the-advantages-of-buying-harley-davidson-online-buy-the-best-motorcycle-on-the-market/">The Advantages of buying Harley-Davidson Online: Buy the Best Motorcycle on the Market</a> first appeared on <a href="https://auto-moto1.com">Auto Moto 1 - Car Repair Advice - Get Top Tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>
