Does a New Car Need Tire Pressure Adjustment?
1 Answers
Generally, there is no need to adjust the tire pressure for a new car as long as it remains within the normal range. Here are the relevant details: 1. The recommended tire pressure for most models on the market is between 2.5-2.7 bar. When picking up a new car, simply follow the manufacturer's recommended value. The recommended tire pressure may vary for each vehicle. The standard tire pressure for a vehicle can be found in the owner's manual, on the lower side of the B-pillar, or inside the fuel filler cap. 2. Whether tire pressure adjustment is necessary depends on environmental factors. Since tire pressure is not constant, it can be affected by road surface temperature or tire surface temperature. In summer, when the ground temperature is very high, the air inside the tires expands, increasing the volume, which in turn raises the tire pressure. In winter, lower temperatures cause the air in the tires to contract, reducing the tire pressure accordingly. Additionally, high-speed driving causes continuous friction between the tires and the road, which can also increase tire pressure.
