What is the RPM at a speed of 100 km/h?
1 Answers
The RPM at a speed of 100 km/h is generally around 2400-2500. Different vehicles may have varying RPMs even at the same speed. Speed is related to engine RPM, but it's not a direct proportional relationship due to the influence of the transmission. The maximum rated RPM an engine can achieve is its peak RPM. Typically, the tachometer indicates this with a red line marking the starting RPM, but it doesn't represent the absolute maximum RPM the engine can reach. For modern four-stroke engines, the average idle RPM ranges between 600-800. An engine needs to reach a certain RPM to operate stably, known as the idle speed. Below this RPM, the engine will stall, while above it, the engine functions normally. Additionally, each engine has a defined maximum RPM, which varies based on its design. Increasing RPM can enhance power output.
