There are common warnings about the dangers of using a gas-pressure washer to clean cars. However, as long as a low-pressure nozzle is used, there should be no issues. While it isn't designed for maximum power, this Champion model provides effective cleaning, especially for cars, trucks, quads, and RVs.

A 196cc motor powers a maintenance-free axial pump that delivers water at 3,100 psi and 2.2 GPM through a 25-foot high-pressure hose. There are four spray nozzles with varying spray intensities, plus one for soap. A 1-gallon soap tank can clean even the biggest vehicles without needing to be constantly refilled.

I've put it to the test on all sorts of tough cleaning jobs from restoring faded decking to deep cleaning greasy tools.

Time after time, it chews through dirt and stains that would make lesser machines struggle for hours. As a professional cleaner, the productivity boost it's given my business has been incredible.

When it came to finding a pressure washer for my business, I knew I needed one with durable, commercial-grade components that could stand up to daily use. That's why I've been so impressed by the all-metal piston pump on the Champion.

This thing just keeps on pumping at peak pressure day after day with zero signs of weakening, even after months of continuous cleaning jobs. The consistent 3100 PSI output allows me to blast through grime at top speed, saving me valuable time on job sites.

How It Worked in the Long-Term

This Champion pressure washer has been super helpful for the last eight months. As someone with a smaller garage, I appreciate the compact size of this pressure washer. Whether washing mud from my truck after weekend yard work or blasting leaves and grime off the siding, the job is done well. Even after consistent use during the warmer seasons, the engine starts on the first pull and runs smoothly with each use.

Editor’s Verdict: For drivers seeking gas power and value, Champion wins as top car washer.
