Today's new energy vehicles are becoming more and more popular around the world, and for novice users, what is the matter with pure electric, plug-in hybrid, and extended-range hybrid?It is also the problem that bothers them the most.
Pure electric I think is the best to understand, the car itself has a large battery for the motor on the car as the only power, after the power needs to go to the charging pile to charge, the battery can be resurrected.
A little nerve-wracking, a little difficult to understand should be plug-in hybrid and extended range hybrid technology
The extended-range hybrid is simpler in comparison, the engine on the car is only used to charge the battery in the car, and then the battery provides power to the motor, the engine of the extended-range hybrid does not participate in the drive motor, and the disadvantage is that the fuel consumption will be higher when driving on the highway.
The plug-in hybrid is completely different, it will be more technical, not only supporting series and EV modes, but also having two modes: parallel and direct engine drive. This plug-in hybrid will be more adaptable to operating conditions, and fuel consumption will be lower at high speeds. So in my opinion, plug-in hybrid can take into account the dual needs of vehicle performance and economy.
This is also the reason why car companies in the new energy vehicle industry are basically engaged in plug-in hybrids as long as they have a little strength. Among them, I think the most popular is BYD's DM-i super hybrid.
Therefore, when you buy similar new energy vehicles, you must figure out what is a plug-in hybrid, what is an extended-range hybrid, and you must know some gaps between these two technologies.
So finally, I would like to ask you, if you buy new energy vehicles, extended-range hybrid and plug-in hybrid, what will you choose?
