How long should a new car be driven each time during the break-in period?

[GideonAnn]

The break-in mileage for a new car is generally between 1,000 kilometers and 3,000 kilometers. The break-in period for a new car has the following characteristics: 1. More driving issues: Due to factors such as improper assembly of parts, new cars tend to have more driving issues during the break-in period; 2. Higher fuel consumption: To ensure the new car operates under light load during the break-in period, carburetor-equipped cars are fitted with speed limiters, which can easily cause an overly rich air-fuel mixture, leading to increased fuel consumption; 3. Lubricating oil is prone to deterioration: During the break-in period, the rough surfaces of parts and the small gaps between them can cause the lubricating oil temperature to rise. Additionally, many metal shavings are worn off and fall into the lubricating oil, making it more susceptible to oxidation and deterioration.
