The normal tire pressure for the Haval H6 is 2.5 bar, and it can be slightly reduced in summer. Tires are the only components of a car that come into contact with the ground, and they are crucial for driving stability and safety. The tire pressure should neither be too high nor too low. The Haval H6 is positioned as a compact SUV, with dimensions of 4653mm in length, 1886mm in width, and 1730mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2738mm. The engine equipped in this car delivers a maximum horsepower of 211 ps, a maximum power of 155 kW, and a maximum torque of 325 Nm.

I've been driving a Haval H6 for over two years, and the manual clearly states that the tire pressure should be maintained between 2.3-2.5 bar. During summer highway driving, I usually reduce it to 2.3 bar since tire temperature rises and so does the pressure. In winter, I inflate them directly to 2.5 bar, especially in northern areas where sub-zero temperatures cause tire pressure to drop quickly. It's particularly important to note the silver label on the vehicle's B-pillar—just crouch down to see the manufacturer's recommended values. Last month during a service at the 4S dealership, the technician specifically warned that overinflation can cause tire bulges, while underinflation leads to a noticeable increase in fuel consumption. Now, I make it a habit to check the tire pressure monthly.

With experience repairing hundreds of Haval H6s, the standard tire pressure should be checked on the door frame sticker. Most models require 2.3 bar for the front tires and 2.4 bar for the rear tires. In summer, it's recommended to go 0.1 bar below the standard, and in winter, 0.2 bar above. Mechanical tire pressure gauges are the most accurate, while digital ones may have errors. Recently, I encountered an owner with rear tire pressure at 3.0 bar, claiming it saved fuel. However, the tires overheated and deformed on the highway, costing an extra 800 for replacements. Remember to inflate the spare tire to 2.8 bar, as unused tires tend to lose pressure naturally over time.

The recommended cold tire pressure for the Haval H6 is 2.4 bar, which typically rises to 2.6 bar after driving 3 kilometers. I remember last winter when my tire pressure dropped to 1.8 bar—the steering wheel felt as heavy as pulling an iron block, and fuel consumption soared to 10L. Now, I always keep an air pump in the trunk; the Michelin one with a digital display is quite handy. Don’t blindly trust the air pumps at highway rest stops—last time, mine was inflated to 3.2 bar, causing the car to bounce severely until I manually released some air. Regularly checking tread depth is also crucial.
