What is the normal tire pressure for the Chery Tiggo 8?
3 Answers
The normal tire pressure for the Chery Tiggo 8 ranges from 2.2 to 2.5 bar. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, and unstable tire pressure can reduce the tire's lifespan. Hazards of high tire pressure: 1. Reduced friction and adhesion of the tire, affecting braking performance; 2. Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; 3. Accelerates localized wear on the central tread pattern of the tire. The Chery Tiggo 8 has a body length of 4700mm, width of 1860mm, height of 1746mm, a wheelbase of 2710mm, a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters, and a trunk capacity of 193 liters.
I've been driving a Chery Tiggo 8 for a long time, so I know all about tire pressure. The normal tire pressure is between 2.3 and 2.5 bar, which is approximately 33 to 36 psi. When I first bought it, I didn't know either, but I discovered this little secret on the sticker on the driver's door frame. Remember, keeping it within this range makes the car run smoother: too high and the tires wear out faster with unstable handling; too low and fuel consumption skyrockets, tires can overheat and burst, and braking performance is affected. I check it every two weeks with a portable tire pressure gauge, and it's most accurate when the car is cool in the morning. In summer, the effect of thermal expansion and contraction is obvious, and in winter when temperatures are low, it can be slightly higher. If the car isn't driven for a long time, the tire pressure will slowly drop, so regular maintenance saves both hassle and money, and can extend tire life by at least a year.
From my experience, the standard tire pressure for the Chery Tiggo 8 is typically between 2.3-2.5 bar, but the key lies in how to handle daily variations. When the vehicle weight increases, such as carrying more passengers or luggage, the tire pressure can be adjusted up to the upper limit of 2.5 bar; when the car is empty, maintaining it at 2.3 bar is sufficient. Measuring is simple—just use a 20-yuan tire pressure gauge, and the most accurate reading is taken when the tires are cold, at least 2 hours after parking. Don’t overlook the impact of tire pressure: when it’s too low, the steering wheel feels heavy, and the car may feel unstable at high speeds, increasing fuel consumption by 1-2 liters per 100 km; when it’s too high, the ride becomes harsher over speed bumps, and the center of the tire wears out faster. I recommend checking it monthly—uneven tire wear is a clear sign it’s time to take action.
