What is the wading depth of the Sagitar dry dual-clutch transmission?
1 Answers
According to official information, the maximum wading depth of the new Sagitar is 700mm. Common tire specifications include 225/45R18 and 205/55R17, with a vehicle weight ranging from 1335kg to 1410kg, a body height of 1462mm, and it is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan. The maximum wading depth refers to the deepest water level a vehicle can safely pass through. Generally, the maximum wading depth for sedans does not exceed 300mm, while SUVs can handle slightly deeper water, but it is still advisable not to exceed 500mm. Among common models, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a maximum wading depth of 700mm, the Audi A4 has 320mm, the Nissan X-Trail has 930mm, the Land Rover Range Rover has 900mm, the Jeep Compass has 800mm, and the Toyota Highlander has 455mm. SUVs generally have higher wading depths than sedans. After driving through water, vehicle owners can take the following measures: Drive through the water at low speed; first gear is sufficient. During the drive, apply the brakes several times to allow continuous braking, which helps evaporate moisture from the brake pads and ensures safe braking performance. If the vehicle stalls immediately after wading, try to push it out of the water or wait for assistance. Do not restart the engine, as this could allow air and water to enter the engine cylinders. The high pressure of water may cause impact on the piston rods during engine operation, leading to deformation of the rods and crankshaft, rendering the engine unusable.
