What is the best mileage for a car during the break-in period?
1 Answers
The best mileage for a car during the break-in period is between 1,000 kilometers and 3,000 kilometers. The break-in period refers to the initial driving distance after a new car leaves the factory, during which the engine components are allowed to wear in smoothly. After the break-in period, the mating surfaces between various parts will become smoother, the fit between components will be tighter, and the car will become more powerful, fuel-efficient, quieter, and more agile. Precautions for driving a new car during the break-in period: 1. Avoid emergency braking, as it not only shocks the braking system during the break-in period but also increases the impact load on the chassis and engine. Do not perform emergency braking within the first 300 kilometers of driving. 2. Do not drive at high speeds. There are speed limits for new cars during the break-in period: domestic cars should stay between 40 km/h and 70 km/h, while imported cars should not exceed 1,000 km/h. When the throttle is fully open, the speed should not exceed 80% of the maximum speed. Also, monitor the engine tachometer and speedometer to ensure the engine speed and vehicle speed operate at medium levels. During the break-in period, the engine speed should be between 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
