Why is Volvo's first maintenance at 10,000 kilometers?

[OAnderson]

Different models have different maintenance cycles. Volvo's first maintenance is at 10,000 kilometers because European vehicle maintenance cycles are generally longer, not just 10,000 kilometers, but even up to 20,000 kilometers for the first maintenance. However, this is the ideal maintenance cycle. If the vehicle is frequently driven in harsh conditions, such as urban traffic congestion or short-distance driving, it is recommended to appropriately shorten the maintenance cycle, for example, performing maintenance every 7,500 kilometers would be more appropriate. Below is more information about the first car maintenance: 1. Maintenance content: The first car maintenance is divided into minor maintenance and major maintenance. Minor maintenance includes changing the engine oil and oil filter, while major maintenance includes engine oil, oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter. 2. Maintenance cycle: The first maintenance for a new car is generally limited to within 3 months or 5,000 kilometers, whichever comes first—either time or mileage.
