1 Answers
According to official information, the maximum wading depth of the Trumpchi GS4 is 400mm. Common tire specifications include 225/60R17 and 225/55R18, with a body length of 4545mm, a curb weight of 1480-1540kg, and it is a 5-door, 5-seat SUV. The maximum wading depth refers to the deepest water a vehicle can safely pass through. Generally, the maximum wading depth for sedans does not exceed 30cm, while SUVs can handle slightly deeper water, though it is still advisable not to exceed 50cm. Among common models, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a maximum wading depth of 30cm, the Audi A4 has 32cm, the Volkswagen Sagitar has 30cm, the Land Rover Range Rover has 90cm, the Jeep Compass has 48cm, and the Highlander has 45cm. SUVs clearly have a higher maximum wading depth than sedans. Generally, when driving through water, vehicle owners should take different measures depending on the water depth and the vehicle's specifications, as outlined below: If the water reaches the exhaust pipe height, it is relatively safe. Even if water enters the exhaust pipe, the pressure inside is sufficient to expel it. As long as the engine is not turned off in the water, water will not flow back into the vehicle. If the water reaches the door frame height, it becomes more dangerous. Most of the vehicle's circuits, electronic components, and sensors are located at the bottom, which could lead to short circuits, damaging critical electrical components and preventing the car from starting. If the water reaches the air intake height, it is extremely dangerous. Driving into such conditions could cause the engine to stall immediately, leading to permanent damage or rendering the engine unusable.
