What is the optimal RPM for Aoling CTS?
2 Answers
While driving, the engine RPM of a typical fuel-injected vehicle is most fuel-efficient at around 2200-2500. Introduction to downshifting: It is recommended to downshift when the RPM is below 1500. The engine is more fuel-efficient at 2000-2500 RPM (with slight variations depending on the engine), with moderate torque and relatively low noise, making it suitable for normal driving. Introduction to upshifting: At 2500-3500 RPM, the engine torque is more suitable for overtaking or climbing steep slopes, but fuel consumption increases and noise becomes louder. Above 3500 RPM is not recommended for prolonged operation, as the engine consumes significantly more fuel and produces very loud noise in this range.
As a long-time driver of the Aoling CTS, I've found that this truck's optimal economical RPM range typically operates between 1800 and 2200 revolutions per minute, which maximizes fuel efficiency and minimizes wear. Under light load conditions, it's best to maintain around 1800 RPM for smooth driving. When fully loaded or climbing hills, slightly increasing to above 2000 RPM helps prevent engine strain. For city driving at 40-50 km/h, keeping the RPM steady at 2000 is ideal, while maintaining 80 km/h on highways without frequent fluctuations is recommended. Installing an RPM monitoring gauge is highly practical for real-time adjustments. Cultivating gentle acceleration habits—avoiding sudden throttle inputs or coasting in neutral—saves fuel and reduces emissions. Regular maintenance, including oil changes and air filter replacements, is also crucial to ensure stable operation within the optimal RPM range.
