What is the normal tire pressure for Geely cars in kPa?
2 Answers
The normal tire pressure for Geely cars is between 220 kPa and 250 kPa. Due to seasonal variations, slight fluctuations in tire pressure are normal and still fall within the acceptable range. According to the international standard GBT2978-2008, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: standard tires should be inflated to 2.4-2.5 bar; reinforced tires should be inflated to 2.8-2.9 bar; and the maximum pressure should not exceed 3.5 bar. In winter, it is advisable to increase the tire pressure slightly by about 0.2 bar above the standard pressure. In summer, the tire pressure can generally be set to the lower limit of the standard pressure, such as 2.4 bar for standard tires. If the car is often parked outdoors, the tire pressure can be slightly lower than the standard by about 0.1 bar to prevent tire blowouts due to high temperatures.
I've been driving for over a decade and always keep my Geely's tire pressure between 220 to 240 kPa, which is the most stable range. My experience is that regular tire pressure checks are crucial, especially during seasonal changes. In summer, don't let the pressure get too high, and in winter, don't let it drop too low—keeping it around 230 kPa is ideal to avoid blowouts or increased fuel consumption. Just spend a minute checking with a tire pressure gauge before driving. For Geely models like the Boyue, the recommended value is 230 kPa, as marked in the manual, but always check for your specific model. Remember, correct tire pressure means better braking and longer tire life.
