Is it okay for Wuling Hongguang to run at 4000 RPM on the highway?
1 Answers
It is advisable not to take a new car on the highway immediately. Wait until the mileage exceeds at least 1000-1500 kilometers before driving on the highway. You can then moderately push the engine at a reasonable speed below 120 km/h, preferably keeping the engine RPM under 3000. Avoid exceeding 100 km/h whenever possible, and refrain from sudden acceleration or hard braking. Additionally, before embarking on a long highway trip, it's best to have a thorough inspection of all vehicle components at a local 4S shop. Here are the details: 1. RPM Range: Generally, car RPM fluctuates between 1500-3000 RPM, with idle RPM being lower, around 800-1500 RPM. However, if you observe the car's tachometer, you'll notice it is divided into several zones. The white scale indicates the safe RPM range, while the red scale marks the dangerous RPM range. 4000 RPM does not fall within the dangerous range, so it is not considered aggressive driving. 2. Protective Measures: Moreover, with advancements in automotive technology, engine protection mechanisms are now quite robust. If the engine operates under extreme conditions, fuel cutoff protection measures are usually activated. Therefore, even if the engine frequently runs at 4000 RPM, it may not necessarily harm the engine.
