What is the normal RPM range for a car engine?
1 Answers
Car engine RPM normal range is as follows: 1. Generally, when starting the vehicle, the engine RPM will reach around 1200-1500, because lower RPM may cause stalling during startup. 2. After the engine reaches normal operating conditions, the RPM will drop, usually to around 800. 3. When shifting gears, it's typically done at around 2000-2500 RPM. 4. At other times, just ensure the engine RPM isn't too low or too high. 5. Never let the RPM stay in the red danger zone for prolonged periods, as this can damage engine components. 6. Different vehicle models will have different RPM ranges, there's no absolute value.
