Does the new Civic come with tire pressure monitoring?
2 Answers
The new Civic comes with tire pressure monitoring, which can promptly detect abnormal tire pressure issues, providing great convenience for car owners. Unlike directly measuring the tire pressure of each tire, the tire pressure monitoring system monitors the vehicle by comparing the rolling radius and rotational characteristics of each wheel and tire, determining whether one or more tires are significantly underinflated while driving. This will cause the tire pressure monitoring system indicator light to illuminate, and a message will appear on the driver information interface. The system cannot detect tires at low speeds. Factors such as low ambient temperature and changes in altitude directly affect tire pressure and may trigger the tire pressure monitoring system indicator light to illuminate. The new Civic has a body length, width, and height of 4535mm, 1755mm, and 1450mm, respectively.
I've been driving the new Civic for half a year now. As a popular model, it does come standard with a tire pressure monitoring system. During daily driving, I often see the tire pressure values displayed on the dashboard. Whenever the pressure is too low or too high, the system automatically lights up a warning indicator to alert me, allowing me to address the issue promptly. On a recent trip, the tire pressure alarm went off, and upon inspection, I found a small nail causing a slow leak, which helped me avoid a potential high-speed tire blowout. This feature is particularly practical, especially during long-distance trips or when carrying heavy loads. Don't overlook the regular maintenance of the sensor batteries during routine servicing. I recommend getting them checked at the dealership once a year, as this not only extends tire life but also ensures safety. The new Civic offers quite comprehensive safety features, making it highly recommendable.
