What is the normal tire pressure for the Cruze?

The normal tire pressure for the Cruze is between 2.0 and 2.5. Both overinflated and underinflated tires exhibit different symptoms. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In car maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car—damage to the engine can lead to the end of the car's life, while tire pressure is the blood pressure of the car. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the performance and power of the vehicle. The Cruze measures 4614 mm in length, 4630 mm in width, and 1798 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2640 mm. The Cruze inherits the classic dual-cockpit design of the Chevrolet family, incorporating the aesthetic craftsmanship of 3D tailoring. The dashboard features a wraparound structure that extends horizontally to both door panels, equipped with an 8-inch HD touchscreen, piano black lacquer panels, large areas of soft-touch materials, and a floating central armrest.
I believe that for driving the Cruze, tire pressure is crucial for safety. The normal value generally ranges between 210 to 230 kPa, or approximately 32 to 34 PSI, with specific references to the label on the door B-pillar or the manual. When the tire pressure is too high, the middle of the tire wears out quickly, and handling becomes unstable; when it's too low, the sides wear severely, fuel consumption increases, and it may even cause a blowout. I check it myself once a month—buying a small tire pressure gauge costs only a few dozen yuan, and measuring it when the car is cold is the most accurate. In summer, when temperatures are high, air expands, and the tire pressure rises, some air needs to be released; in winter, when it's cold, the tire pressure drops and needs to be replenished, with a change of 0.1 to 0.2 for every 10-degree temperature difference. Maintaining the correct tire pressure not only extends the tire's lifespan but also ensures smooth and safe driving, preventing skidding in the rain or issues during emergency braking. These small details may not seem noticeable in daily life, but they can prevent major accidents.
