Recommended tire pressures
Using the recommended tire pressures will optimize the handling and energy consumption of the car, as well as the lifespan of the tires.
The below table shows the recommended tire pressures.
The recommended tire pressures can also be found on the tire pressure label at the bottom of the Bpillar on the driver side.
| Tire type | No load (kPa) | Full load (kPa) | Towing a trailer (kPa) |
| 255/50 R19 | 250 | 290 | 300 |
| 265/45 R20 | 250 | 290 | 300 |
| 265/40 R21 | 270 | 300 | 330 |
Note: Always check the tire pressure and fill the tires when they have the same temperature as the surrounding air (cold tires). The tire pressure quickly increases when the tires are getting warm during driving, which will cause incorrect readings.
We recommend:
Check the tire pressure regularly, especially before long journeys.

Inflate the tires
To inflate the tires:
| 1. |
Unscrew the cap from the valve.
|
| 2. |
Follow the instructions on the pump and reinflate the tire(s) to the recommended pressure.
|
| 3. |
Reinstall the cap on the valve.

Recommended tread depth
Using tires with enough tread depth is crucial to retain the security, stability, and handling of the car, especially when driving on wet roads. Most tires have built-in wear indicators in the tread. These indicators can show the tread depth or indicate when it is time to buy new tires.
Always follow local rules and regulations regarding tread depth.
We recommend:
Check the tread depth regularly, especially when switching between summer and winter tires.
