Does driving a new car at high speed for 2000 kilometers have any impact?
1 Answers
Driving a new car at high speed for 2000 kilometers has no impact, but driving a new car with less than 500 kilometers at high speed will significantly increase engine wear and even cause abnormal wear. Tire blowout: Continuous driving, coupled with the high surface temperature on the highway due to sun exposure, can lead to severe tire wear. Prolonged driving reduces the friction between the tires and the road, and the high temperature may even cause a blowout. A poorly handled blowout on the highway is extremely dangerous. It's advisable to take breaks every few hours to cool down your car. Cooling system failure: After long hours of highway driving, the cooling system is most likely to develop issues, such as the common 'boiling over' phenomenon, leading to clogged radiators and difficulty in cooling. Especially for older vehicles, excessive temperature can result in poor cooling and lubrication, causing cylinder scoring and engine damage. These conditions can worsen, with the most severe cases leading to engine overheating and seizure. If the engine fails to start due to overheating midway, it can become a major hassle.
