How many kilometers should a new car run before going on the highway?

[RuthRose]

Generally, it is safer to drive on the highway after 2,500KM. During the break-in period of a new car, the following points should be noted: 500 kilometers for the initial break-in: At this stage, the speed should not be too fast, generally below 70-80 km/h, and it is best to keep the engine speed below 2,200 rpm. 500-1,000 kilometers for the mid-term break-in: The maximum speed can be appropriately increased, generally up to 90-100 km/h, and it is still advisable to keep the engine speed below 2,500 rpm. Properly increasing the speed will not only not affect the engine but can also promote the break-in process and help detect any abnormalities during acceleration.
