First of all, it is possible for a new car to drive on the highway, but it is important to note that during the break-in period, the engine should not be operated at high RPM, under heavy load, or for extended periods of time, as this is not beneficial for the vehicle during its break-in period. Therefore, it is recommended that you stop at a service area every 2-3 hours to rest both the car and the driver, preferably for about half an hour to allow the engine to cool down. Below is some relevant information: 1. Cold break-in of a new car: New cars have already undergone cold break-in treatment before leaving the factory and do not require further break-in. In practice, more than 95% of car owners will perform a break-in period of 3-5 thousand kilometers. This process allows all parts of the car to fully contact, rub, and adapt to each other. 2. Precautions during driving: The speed of a new car should not exceed 100-110 km/h, the engine RPM should not exceed 3000, do not overload, do not accelerate suddenly, do not brake sharply, and take a break every 2-3 hours during the trip. It is best to refuel when the fuel tank is down to one-third.
