Can the Volvo XC90 go on long trips during the break-in period?

Volvo XC90 can go on long trips during the break-in period, but speed is crucial—keep it below 3,000 RPM. The break-in period helps adjust and enhance the ability of various car components to adapt to the environment and smooth out any protrusions on the parts. The quality of the break-in period will significantly impact the car's lifespan, safety, and fuel efficiency. The Volvo XC90 is positioned as a mid-to-large-size SUV, with body dimensions of 4,950 mm in length, 1,958 mm in width, and 1,776 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2,984 mm. In terms of power, the Volvo XC90 is equipped with a T6 engine, which combines both mechanical and turbocharging to achieve a maximum power output of 225 kW through dual-charging technology.
As an automotive enthusiast, I can confirm that long-distance driving during the break-in period of a new car is completely feasible. The Volvo XC90's engine and components are all optimized in design, and modern vehicles are not as fragile as older models. I've personally driven on highways during the break-in period - the key is to avoid aggressive driving behaviors like sudden acceleration or hard braking. Maintaining speeds between 80-100 km/h will minimize engine wear. For long trips, I recommend taking breaks every hour or two to let the vehicle cool down and prevent overheating. I also checked tire pressure and engine oil to ensure everything was in order. Remember to avoid towing heavy loads or climbing steep hills during break-in, as steady cruising actually helps components wear in better. In conclusion, feel free to travel, but exercising some caution never hurts.
