Does speeding in a new car affect the engine?
1 Answers
Yes, it will have an impact, as it increases engine wear. During the break-in period, it is best to keep the car's speed between 50-80 km/h. Penalties for speeding: If the speed limit is 80 km/h and you drive at 85 km/h, it is considered speeding but does not exceed 10% of the speed limit, so there will be no fine or penalty points, but a warning may be issued. If the speed exceeds 10% to 20% of the limit, a fine and 3 penalty points will be imposed. If the speed exceeds 20% to 50% of the limit, a fine and 6 penalty points will be imposed. Legal basis: Article 86 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China".
