The price is easy to access, the maintenance cost is only 1/3 of a gasoline car Launched on March 24, VinFast VF e34 has an official selling price of VND 690 million, but for customers who ordered before June 30, 2021, the Vietnamese car company offers a special preferential price of only VND 590 million. Includes one-year free battery subscription. This is considered an accessible price for first-time car buyers, young families in big cities in Vietnam. Mr. Tuan Phong (30 years old) ordered VinFast VF e34 just one day after the car was introduced. He said, with outstanding technology such as electric motors, smart features and attractive pre-set price of only 590 million VND and extremely “open” pre-order policy, VF e34 persuaded him to “down money”. without any hesitation. “The battery rental policy that makes the car price more accessible is the first reasonable one. The second is an immediate incentive of 100 million dong for early booking, and the third one is a deposit of only 10 million dong and can be freely refunded / canceled / transferred without penalty, so I have no reason. to hesitate “, Mr. Phong said. According to Mr. Phong, young people often like “delicious-nutritious-cheap” cars because their financial resources are not abundant. With the same amount of VND 590 million, in addition to the VF e34, customers cannot even buy a standard B-class SUV, only a few high-end versions of B-class sedans. Meanwhile, VF e34 Being a model in the higher-end C-segment is clearly a bargain. For young people who buy a car for the first time, owning a car is still vague when it comes to solving some concerns such as the cost of buying a car, maintenance, repair, fuel and parking. Mr. Tuan Phong admitted this, thinking that he was no exception, so he decided to buy an electric car. According to him, VinFast VF e34 not only has the most competitive price in the market, but also has a much more optimal cost-effectiveness than traditional cars. “The cost of electric fuel is cheaper than gasoline, of course. Worth mentioning here is that the maintenance cost of VinFast VF e34 is only 25% -30% of gasoline cars due to its simpler structure, ”said Phong. According to calculations, the total maintenance cost for electric cars after the first 40,000 km is only about 4.4 million VND, and only costs about 12.7 million VND for 120,000 km. Not only that, with VF e34, early customers who order early are also free 17.4 million dong of battery subscription fee in the first year. Overflowing with technology Attractive price does not mean VinFast VF e34 has reduced features, but instead, the car is fully equipped with “toys” and is connected to a smart management application.

The air-conditioning system integrates the air quality control function with the fine dust filter HEPA PM2.5 which is also an advantage for the current air pollution. In addition, the voice control feature to support Vietnamese for multi-regional adaptation is also expected. List of long-term safety technologies, including ABS anti-lock braking, BA emergency brake assist, EBD electronic brake force distribution, ESC electronic balance, HSA horizontal start assist, 360 surveillance camera , lane departure warning, blind spot warning, traffic flow warning until door opening, vehicle warning when reversing, front and rear sensor, tire pressure monitoring, automatic throttle, 6 airbags … Help VinFast VF e34 achieve the highest safety standards. Environmental friendliness Growing up with the Internet, Generation Y and Z (Gen Y – Gen Z) are well aware of the urgency of protecting the environment. Many young people are gradually changing to choose means of using electric energy to limit the impact on the living environment. In the opinion that electric cars are not actually too good for the environment compared to traditional cars, due to the generation of electricity and batteries emitting a lot of CO2, the leading renewable energy company in the UK EDF Energy protested. Accordingly, even with more emissions in the current production process, electric cars are still a “greener” option than traditional cars when taking into account the vehicle lifecycle. That is not to mention that it will be easier and more efficient to treat the waste from the centralized battery production / recycling process in a closed process than to worry about a series of internal combustion engine vehicles discharging every day. . Technology to produce electricity and batteries is also developing and changing day by day, so emissions from manufacturing will be improved positively in the near future. According to EDF Energy, the biggest benefit of electric cars is improved air quality in large cities. Without exhaust pipes, electric cars have absolutely no NOx, HC, CO, CO2 emissions – a combination of exhaust gases that seriously affects human health and living environment. Simply put, electric cars are the foundation for cleaner and cleaner cities and roads. Another fairly common myth is that lithium-ion batteries are as toxic as lead batteries. In fact, lithium-ion batteries are safer, causing less harm to the environment or human health. At the same time, lithium-ion batteries are also of high economic value, so they will be collected, recycled and reused instead of being disposed of as lead batteries, so the risk of environmental pollution is also minimized. In particular, the solution to renting batteries instead of “selling off” cars with batteries to customers will help manufacturers like VinFast better manage the amount of batteries circulating in the market, ensuring that they will not be disposed of indiscriminately, causing harmful to the environment.

After the great success of the urban SUV model Kia Seltos in the Vietnamese market, Kia’s exclusive distributor in Vietnam, Thaco Truong Hai, continued its move to launch another urban SUV, the Kia Sonet. . Information revealed first, the new SUV model has received great attention from the monotonous world. So what are the similarities and differences between Kia Sonet and Kia Seltos?

Classification, size

The Kia Seltos is designed to be a B-SUV, while the Kia Sonet is a smaller mini SUV (SUV A +). Kia Sonet has an overall size of 3,995 x 1,790 x 1,642 (mm) long x width x height; wheelbase 2,500 (mm). Meanwhile, Kia Seltos seniors have corresponding dimensions of 4,315 x 1,800x 1,645 (mm), a wheelbase of 2,610 (mm). Thus, Seltos is longer than 320 (mm); 10 (mm) wider and 3 (mm) taller; wheelbase more than 110 (mm). With a much larger length and wheelbase, the Seltos looks better on the outside and the interior is easier to sit, especially for the second row occupants.

Although small, but the Mini SUV Kia Sonet is an A + SUV, compared to the A-class hatchback, the Kia Morning, it is clear that the Sonet still has a larger size.

Engine power

As the A-SUV segment, the Kia Sonet cannot compare with the Kia Seltos in terms of performance. While Seltos uses 1.4L and 1.6L petrol engines with 121-138 horse power, Sonet uses a 1.2L petrol engine with a capacity of only 87 horse power (equivalent to the Morning). Sonet 1.0L T-GDi version uses Turbo engine for 118Hp capacity. Sonet in the world market also has a 1.5L oil engine with a capacity of 97 horsepower, far behind Seltos. So, if you own a Mini SUV Kia Sonet, the owner will have to balance because the ability to climb up when carrying heavy loads is quite weak. Just look at the Kia Morning to know.

Beautiful, youthful and modern exterior design

Since its launch in Vietnam, Seltos has continuously created a fever because of its extremely eye-catching design. Characteristic SUV design, indicators such as tiger nose calipers are arranged harmoniously to help the car look extremely seductive. Many experts and consumers rate the Kia Seltos with the highest score on the exterior. The Kia Sonet, when compared to the Kia Seltos, is equally beautiful, even though the exterior looks smaller, but still exudes the sportiness of a modern urban SUV.

Comfortable cabin compartment

The most similarity when comparing the interior of the Sonet and the Seltos is that the cabin is similar. Both cars are equipped with a 10.25-inch LCD screen that stands on the dashboard. 3-spoke steering wheel with audio adjustment and hands-free phone. Digital display behind the wheel instead of traditional analog. Other amenities that 2 5-seater SUVs have such as intelligent explosion, automatic air conditioning, and the front seats are designed to hold tight against fatigue. The difference is probably in the sunroof on the highest-end Sonet. But do not know if this detail will be cut when returning to Vietnam or not? In addition, the Kia Sonet also surprised with a new 7-seat version launched in Indonesia. But perhaps this version is not about Vietnam.

Safe enough

The Kia Sonet is equipped with just enough safety features such as 6 airbags, ABS brakes, EBD, ESC, brake assist, front and rear parking sensors, tire pressure warning, automatic headlights and security keychains. Full Isofix for child seats. Seltos has some additional features such as support for horizontal slope departure, traction control …

Above are some comparisons between two small SUV brothers Kia Sonet and Seltos. It is expected that with a low price, Sonet will be a new blockbuster in the Vietnamese auto market in the near future.

Task Manager interface.

Turn off booting of some unnecessary programs

All you need is a built-in utility – Task Manager. This app isn’t just the place to stop nasty bots from refusing to shut down. The task manager can also help with boot time management. Open Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Shift + Esc. Alternatively, press the Windows key, type “Task Manager” and select Task Manager from the search results that appear.

If Task Manager is in minimal view, click More details in the lower left of the window to see the full program.

In Expanded view, select the Startup tab. This section lists all the different third-party programs that are trying to launch at boot time. Virtually all of them can be turned off, but there are some possibilities you’ll want to leave them alone.

To figure out what to turn off and what to retain, see the Startup impact column. Any program classified as “High” or “Medium” must be a “candidate” for disabling. Some programs like sound card, password manager or something related to graphics card … must be kept. On the other hand, items like web browser helper or virtual private network (VPN) can wait to launch until you really need them.

To disable a program, select it, then at the bottom right of the window click the Disable button. Under the Status column you will now see that the program has moved from Enabled to Disabled. Continue as needed through the list of third-party programs.

Turn on Fast Startup

Windows 10 also has an option to start your computer faster, which is Fast Startup. When you turn on Fast Startup, Windows 10 automatically creates a Hibernate file for faster startup. How to enable “Fast Startup” as follows:

Step 1: Open “Control Panel”, then select “View by: Large icons”.

Step 2: Select the “Power Options” feature.

Step 3: Click “Choose what the power buttons do” in the left pane of the window.

Step 4: At the top, please click on the green text “Change settings that are currently unavailable”.

Step 5: Under “Shutdown settings”, check the box “Fast Startup”. Click “Save Changes” to save the settings on your machine.
