Is It Normal for the Car Temperature Gauge to Be at Half?

[VanClara]

It is normal for the car temperature gauge to reach the halfway point. Generally, when the car engine is operating, the water temperature fluctuates between 85-100 degrees Celsius. Below is some related knowledge about the water temperature when the car's air conditioning is on: Water Temperature: The water temperature gauge ranges from C to H, where C represents 60 degrees Celsius. As long as the needle points to C, it indicates the water temperature has reached 60 degrees. The red H mark represents 110 degrees Celsius, and the span from 60 to 110 degrees allows estimation of the temperature indicated by the gauge. Precautions: Turning on the air conditioning can cause the water temperature to rise because the engine idling automatically increases, generating more heat and making it harder for the car to cool down. This happens when the fan's cooling speed is insufficient, but most cars won't experience this issue due to the presence of a temperature-controlled fan. Prolonged high water temperature can reduce the lubrication of engine oil, leading to wear and tear on internal engine components.
