What is the battery voltage of the Trumpchi GS4?
2 Answers
The normal battery voltage of the Trumpchi GS4 is between 13.7 volts and 14.7 volts. More relevant information is as follows: 1. The Trumpchi GS4 is a compact SUV produced by GAC, with body dimensions of 4545mm in length, 1856mm in width, and 1668mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2680mm. 2. The safety features of the Trumpchi GS4 include front airbags for the driver and passenger, seatbelt reminder, rear child seat interface, tire pressure monitoring, ABS anti-lock braking system, brake force distribution, brake assist, traction control, and electronic stability control. The Trumpchi GS4 is equipped with a 1.5T 169 horsepower L4 engine and comes with a 6-speed manual transmission.
As someone who frequently tinkers with cars, I've been driving the GAC GS4 for nearly three years, and it uses a standard 12-volt battery. After turning off the engine, the normal voltage is around 12.6 volts. When the engine is running, the alternator kicks in, raising the voltage to between 13.5 and 14.5 volts to charge the battery. If the voltage drops below 11.8 volts, you might face difficulty starting the engine or even fail to start it—I once experienced a complete battery drain after leaving the car unused for an extended period during winter. I recommend regularly checking the voltage with a multimeter, especially before and after extreme weather conditions, like scorching summers when overcharging is a risk or freezing winters when starting the engine demands more power. Avoid using in-car electronics unnecessarily while parked, such as leaving headlights or chargers on for extended periods, as this can drain the battery and accelerate its aging. The original battery in the GAC GS4 is quite reliable, but if you frequently measure voltages below 12 volts, it's best to replace it early to avoid getting stranded. Remember to keep the battery terminals clean and corrosion-free to extend its lifespan and save both money and hassle.
