Why is the tire pressure of Model 3 set so high?
1 Answers
The tire pressure of Model 3 typically ranges between 2.3 and 2.5. In addition to following the manufacturer's recommended standard tire pressure, various other factors should be considered, such as season, vehicle load, tire pressure environment, and driving conditions. Taking season as an example, in winter, it is advisable to slightly increase the tire pressure by about 0.2 bar based on the standard tire pressure. In summer, the lower limit of the standard tire pressure should be followed. Here are more related details: 1. Load: The load also significantly affects the tire pressure. When the vehicle is empty, the lower limit of the standard tire pressure should be used (the tire pressure indicated on the vehicle's label can serve as a reference for the minimum tire pressure). When fully loaded, the upper limit of the standard tire pressure should be applied (the maximum tire pressure indicated on the tire can serve as a reference for the theoretical maximum tire pressure). 2. Tire pressure standards: Too low tire pressure increases driving resistance, raises fuel consumption, and accelerates tire wear. Too high tire pressure affects comfort. Both excessively high and low tire pressures pose a risk of tire blowout. The standard tire pressure may vary slightly depending on the vehicle model and style. It is necessary to refer to the standard tire pressure chart for the vehicle. The standard tire pressure chart can usually be found in the following places: the vehicle's user manual, the label near the driver's door (B-pillar), the drawer next to the driver's seat, or the fuel tank cap. These locations indicate the standard tire pressure for full load and three passengers.
