Can a car run at 100 km/h on the highway during the break-in period?
1 Answers
During the break-in period, a car can reach a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, but it is important to avoid running the engine at very high RPMs as this can increase engine wear. Additionally, avoid performing launch starts during this period as it can accelerate transmission wear. Always adhere to the break-in period usage rules when driving during this phase. The break-in period is considered complete after the first maintenance service. Key precautions for new car break-in include: 1. Warm up the car before starting: Wait 5 to 10 seconds after shifting into second gear before driving; 2. Avoid high-speed driving: New cars have speed limits during the break-in period—40 to 70 km/h for domestic cars and 100 km/h for imported cars; 3. Avoid overloading: Carrying excessive weight during the break-in period can damage mechanical components.
