What is the normal tire pressure in winter?
1 Answers
In winter, the normal tire pressure for cars is between 2.2 and 2.4 bar. Excessive tire pressure in winter reduces the friction between the car tires and the road surface, affecting driving safety. Slightly lowering the tire pressure by 0.1 bar below the standard can increase the tire's grip on the road. If the tire pressure is too low, it can increase the car's fuel consumption, cause damage to the tires, and easily lead to tire blowouts. The standard tire pressure for each car can be checked at the fuel filler location. The first row in the tire pressure chart indicates the standard tire pressure, which is generally 2.3 bar for most passenger cars. The tire pressure value refers to the cold tire pressure, measured after the car has been parked for at least 3 hours or if the tires have not been driven more than 2 kilometers. If tire pressure can only be measured when the tires are hot, subtract approximately 0.3 bar from the measured value. Strictly speaking, tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tires. In terms of car maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car, and damage to the engine can lead to the end of the car's life. Tire pressure is the blood pressure of the car, and the level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the car's performance and power.
