Do new cars still require a break-in period nowadays?
1 Answers
Every new car actually has a break-in period, but for today's vehicles, there is no need to deliberately break them in—just drive normally. Specific explanations are as follows: 1. The manual states that no special break-in is required: Many vehicle user manuals provide specific instructions regarding "break-in." For example, Hyundai and Kia manuals mention under "Vehicle Break-in Procedures" that the first sentence states, "This vehicle does not require any special break-in." 2. Advancements in manufacturing technology: The main reason why no special break-in is needed is due to improvements in manufacturing processes, as manufacturers have already taken these factors into account.
