What is the best RPM for starting a new car?
1 Answers
For a new car's starting RPM, different models have different idle speeds due to varying engines. Below is relevant information: 1. Generally, the idle speed ranges between 500 to 850 RPM, while the cold start idle speed is around 1500 to 2000 RPM. Once the engine coolant temperature returns to 90 degrees, the idle speed will stabilize within the specified range. 2. While driving, the optimal engine RPM for most fuel-injected cars is around 2200-2500 RPM. Regardless of the gear, it's best to maintain the engine RPM within this range. Too low RPM makes the car sluggish, wastes fuel without moving, and harms the engine; too high RPM increases unnecessary fuel consumption and also damages the engine.
