Does Lotus l3 cruise at a fixed speed?

Lotus l3 of Pacific Auto Network has constant speed cruise. The reason why it is equipped with constant speed cruise is to reduce driver's fatigue, avoid engine speed fluctuation, improve fuel economy, and at the same time accurately control the driving speed of the car to avoid speeding. After the cruise mode is started, the engine of the car will be controlled by the computer, and the computer will constantly adjust the running state according to the road conditions and the driving resistance of the car, so that the car will always keep running at the set speed.

Lotus l3 Cruise is equipped with cruise control on the multi-function button of the steering wheel. The reason is to reduce the driver's fatigue, avoid the fluctuation of engine speed, improve fuel economy, and accurately control the driving speed of the car to avoid speeding.

Lotus l3 Cruise is equipped with cruise control on the multi-function button of the steering wheel. The reason is to reduce the driver's fatigue, avoid the fluctuation of engine speed, improve fuel economy, and accurately control the driving speed of the car to avoid speeding. As we all know, the cruising speed is fixed. Before you use it, set a speed, and the vehicle can move forward automatically according to this speed. Then adjust the speed. You can fine-tune it by using the cruise lever or the buttons on the steering wheel. It's actually quite simple. Since the popularization of electronic throttle, it is not difficult to achieve constant speed cruise compared with the previous mechanical pull throttle, so this is definitely not a technological configuration.

Cruise at a fixed speed is very convenient, but its practical use is very limited, because most highways in China are not always unblocked. If the traffic volume is large or there are frequent overtaking and lane changing, the use efficiency of cruise control function is not high. Besides, it's a little troublesome. If you want to use it again after stopping or suspending the cruise, you must manually resume the operation. Of course, for many people, this is not a problem. It is a big deal to use it when the traffic is slow and smooth.

In fact, the biggest drawback of cruise control is that it is easy for people to slack off. After a long period of use, the feet leave the accelerator. If there is a sudden emergency, it is easy for people to make a wrong operation, and stepping on the brakes becomes stepping on the accelerator. Adaptive cruise can automatically analyze the road conditions through on-board sensors, and can automatically slow down and restore speed, which is both comfortable and safe.
