What is the normal tire pressure for the Changan CS55?

[LeNora]

The normal tire pressure for the Changan CS55 is between 2.3 and 2.5 bar. Tire pressure is affected by the season, and car owners can make certain adjustments accordingly. For example, tire pressure should be slightly lower in summer because high temperatures can cause the tires to heat up, and higher pressure may lead to blowouts. In winter, tire pressure should be slightly higher than in summer due to thermal contraction and expansion. The Changan CS55 has dimensions of 4500mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1690mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2650mm. It is a 5-door, 5-seat SUV with a 6-speed manual transmission. The engine is a 1.5T L4 with turbocharged intake, delivering a maximum horsepower of 156ps and a maximum torque of 225Nm.

I've been driving the Changan CS55 for several years. The standard tire pressure is generally around 2.3 to 2.5 bar, depending on the vehicle model and tire type. When I bought the new car, the manual stated that the recommended pressure for the front tires is 2.3 bar and the rear tires 2.4 bar when unloaded, increasing the rear tires to 2.5 bar when fully loaded. I make it a habit to check the pressure monthly with a simple gauge when the tires are cold. In summer, the pressure rises slightly due to higher temperatures, while in winter, it's safer to keep it around 2.2 bar when cold. Too high pressure makes the tires stiff, leading to a bumpy ride and potential suspension damage, while too low pressure increases fuel consumption and accelerates tire wear. Last week, I noticed the steering felt loose on the highway, and upon checking, the tire pressure was only 2.0 bar. After topping it up to the standard value, the car immediately felt much more stable. Remember, the tire pressure sticker can be found on the driver's side door frame. If you're unsure, you can always get it checked for free at a 4S shop.

As a young CS55 owner, I pay more attention to the impact of tire pressure on driving safety. The standard tire pressure is usually between 32-35 psi, such as the recommended 34 psi for my 2020 model. If the tire pressure is too low, the car will lean severely when cornering, increasing the risk of a tire blowout and accidents; if it's too high, the grip will be poor, especially dangerous in rainy conditions when skidding is more likely. Every time I wash my car, I ask the staff to check the tire pressure, keeping it around 35 psi for a more dynamic and fuel-efficient drive—my average fuel consumption has dropped from 8L to 7.5L. Friends who modify their tires should be careful not to arbitrarily increase the pressure beyond the standard 35 psi, as it can damage the rims. If I need to carry heavy loads temporarily, I slightly adjust the rear tire pressure to 36 psi to balance the load. In short, tire pressure may seem like a small issue, but it's a big deal for safety. Developing good habits can help avoid potential hazards.

We take our Changan CS55 on family trips with kids, keeping the tire pressure around 2.4 bar. The owner's manual recommends a reference range of 2.3-2.5 bar, and it drives very smoothly at this pressure. Once when the tire pressure dropped to 2.1 bar, fuel consumption spiked during a long trip and the ride became noticeably bumpy, scaring our baby into tears. Things improved significantly after timely inflation. In winter, I reduce it to 2.3 bar to prevent freezing cracks, while maintaining 2.4 bar in summer to avoid overheating. A simple smartphone app pressure gauge allows convenient checks anytime without professional tools. Remember to keep front and rear tire pressures equal to prevent steering pull and handling difficulties. Regular maintenance is essential for hassle-free and worry-free driving.
