Why is water dripping from the Golf's exhaust pipe?
1 Answers
Water dripping from the Golf's exhaust pipe occurs because gasoline, after complete combustion, produces water vapor and carbon dioxide. Water vapor is colorless and transparent at high temperatures, but when the temperature drops below 100 degrees, the water vapor condenses into water. Taking the 2021 Golf as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4296mm in length, 1788mm in width, and 1471mm in height, a wheelbase of 2636mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters. The 2021 Golf is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 116 PS, a maximum power of 85 kW, and a maximum torque of 200 Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
