Does the Geely Boyue have tire pressure monitoring?
2 Answers
Geely Boyue is equipped with tire pressure monitoring, which can be viewed on the dashboard under special function prompts (tire pressure monitoring, active safety information). There are three common types of tire pressure monitoring methods: Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire's air pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the pressure data for each tire. The system automatically alerts when the tire pressure is too low or there is a leak. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure alert systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure. Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): This system combines the advantages of both the above systems. It is equipped with direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and an indirect system for all four wheels. Compared to a full direct system, this hybrid system can reduce costs and overcome the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect when multiple tires have low pressure simultaneously. However, it still cannot provide real-time data on the actual pressure in all four tires like a direct system.
The Geely Boyue indeed comes with a tire pressure monitoring system, which particularly satisfies me as a tech-savvy young enthusiast. This system can display the real-time pressure value of each tire, with data directly popping up on the central control screen via sensors. It automatically alerts you if any tire's pressure is too low or too high, effectively preventing the risk of a blowout while driving. I remember once on the highway, the system gave an early warning about insufficient pressure in the right front tire, allowing me to pull over and inflate it in time, saving me a lot of trouble. Beyond safety, this feature also helps me save fuel, as tires with normal pressure are more energy-efficient. Overall, the Geely Boyue is quite generous with its comfort-oriented configurations, and the tire pressure monitoring is just one of them. It's really practical for daily driving, especially in summer when high temperatures can easily affect tire pressure—having it gives me much more peace of mind.
