What is the maximum wading depth for a sedan?

[ElijahDella]

The maximum wading depth for a car is 15 centimeters. Precautions for vehicle wading: Ensure the vehicle moves at a low speed and constantly check the water depth. For manual transmission models, use the first gear as much as possible, maintain steady throttle control for a smooth passage. Automatic transmission models should also try to engage the forced low gear or snow mode to increase vehicle torque and prevent tire slippage. Avoid drastic driving maneuvers and stalling midway. After exiting the water, apply the brakes several times in succession to quickly evaporate the moisture on the brake discs and ensure the vehicle's braking performance. Solution if water enters the vehicle during wading: Immediately turn off the ignition switch and do not attempt to restart the engine. Remove the negative terminal of the battery as soon as possible to prevent short circuits in the vehicle's electrical components due to water ingress.
