Radiators are heat exchangers. The coolant is pumped around the engine, picking up heat energy as it traverses around the different parts and systems. The radiator, which is usually made out of aluminium or some highly conductive metal, then pipes this coolant into thin tubes (often known as fins) which are exposed to the air rushing through the front of the car. The outside of the metal is cooled down, which dissipates the heat energy of the coolant – in turn cooling down the liquid. This cold liquid is then recirculated in the engine, to pick up more heat, and further aid the cooling process.

What will the traffic in the cities of the future look like? At Mando, this is one of the questions we ask ourselves most frequently. This question allows us to explore new areas in mobility technology. Crowding cities worldwide making traffic a much bigger problem makes "smart" traffic a must, especially for big cities. When considering the concept of "smart traffic", it is required to focus on new ideas, think outside the box, moving away from the usual conventions. This mentality is the very reason for the emergence of personal mobility solutions whose numbers have been gradually increasing for the last few years. Thanks to these solutions, innovative solutions beyond cars are generated for personal mobility in cities. At the heart of these innovative solutions lies personal mobility platforms. All personal mobility solutions, both two-wheeler and four-wheeler, are built on these platforms.

There are several acronyms frequently used in the automotive world. Admittedly, most of us do not know what these acronyms refer to. But don't worry, Mando is by your side! LIDAR is the acronym for "Light Detection and Ranging". It is considered the eyes of autonomous vehicles. Measuring with light the distance to objects around the vehicle, LIDAR technology utilizes the laser to understand how far objects are. By calculating the time for the laser beam to return from the object, distances to objects around the vehicle can be detected. LIDAR sensor uses a 905 nm wave width laser beam. Thanks to this non-dispersive laser beam, the system's error margin reduces down to a few millimeters. LIDAR is able to rotate 360 degrees. Sending millions of laser beams to every direction in a second, LIDAR goes beyond perceiving the distances to the objects around and understands their shapes as well.

The widespread use of electronic components in everyday vehicles makes our journeys far safer and more comfortable. One of these technologies is electronically controlled shock absorber technology. Also called "active shock absorbers", an electronically controlled shock absorber is a smart shock absorber system that is able to change the shock absorber behavior within a few milliseconds, depending on the driving situation characteristics. The computer-controlled system evaluates the data from the environment and makes adjustments to the shock absorber. This way, driving safety and comfort are maximized.

Most of us are emotionally attached to our vehicles. Beyond machines taking us from the point A to the B, our vehicles are our companions, even a member of our family. However, this emotional bond does not change the fact that our cars spend a significant part of their lifetime parked. Considering the investment we make for owning a vehicle, it does not sound reasonable to spend a high amount of money on a car that generally sits in the parking lot. Based on this view, auto subscription systems try to provide solutions. The popularization of these systems may turn us from being a car "owner" into a car "user." Sure, our cities will be affected by this change.

"Safe cars " are often referred to as cars that ensure the safety of passengers inside the vehicle. But, for us, as Mando, the safety of pedestrians on the road is as important as the safety of those inside the car. This is why we have developed the AEB (Autonomous Emergency Braking) technology. The AEB system consists of a camera, radar, sensor, and controls. This system allows the vehicle to automatically brake, in case a pedestrian is on its way ahead, during a normal drive. This way, the safety of pedestrians is no longer dependent on the drivers' reflexes. In the AEB system, the radar, camera, and sensors located on the front side of the vehicle constantly scan the road. The system is activated when there is an obstacle ahead of the car and the driver fails to timely react to it. Through controls, the engine power is cut off, and brakes are activated. This way, accidents taking place due to a sudden appearance of a pedestrian on the road or the driver's failure to notice the stopping car ahead are prevented. As Mando, we care about the safety of everyone in traffic, not just passengers. Therefore, in the safety technologies we develop, we do not just focus on those inside the vehicle but take steps for a traffic environment where everyone is safe.

A shock absorber is a part of the suspension system. It takes under control the vibrations caused by the wheel's up-down movement. Its function is often thought to provide comfort, but it is also a vital part for driving safety as well. This is very easy to understand or feel. When you remove the shock absorber from the suspension system, the oscillations that occur cannot be dampened. Then, the car will oscillate longer, and the connection of the wheel with the ground will weaken and sometimes even break. It means that you will not be able to keep the vehicle on track. If this happens when you are taking a bend, your vehicle will skid, or it will stop at a longer distance when you brake.

One of the most surprising reflections of the COVID-19 pandemic in the field of digital marketing is the rapid rise in the Google searches containing the search pattern "near me."

However, this trend cannot be explained so superficially. Because the popularity of the" near me " search pattern has been growing steadily for the past five years. Therefore, if you own a car service shop, we can say that your new customers are near your shop. However, you need to act wisely for them to see you online.
