What is the wading depth of the 10th-generation Accord?
1 Answers
The maximum wading depth of the 10th-generation Accord is 350-400mm. The wading depth of the 10th-generation Accord is determined by the vehicle's ground clearance, which is listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally speaking, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when passing through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, the advantages of off-road vehicles and SUVs are obvious. However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a reference when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of the 10th-generation Accord is below the water level during wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it will cause serious damage to the engine's mechanical structure (connecting rods, pistons, crankshaft, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth should not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the engine's air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before wading, always turn off the automatic start-stop function to prevent the vehicle from automatically restarting after stalling in water, which could cause serious damage to the engine due to water intake; Judge the underwater road conditions based on the passage of the vehicle ahead and choose a suitable entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow their tracks at low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration; On roads prone to water accumulation, observe warning water level markers, trees, and reference points such as the wheels and doors of other vehicles to judge the water depth before deciding whether to proceed; Understand your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half of the tire height or the engine's air intake, do not enter the water rashly; choose an alternative route instead.
