With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle market, consumers are paying more and more attention to the performance of these vehicles under extreme weather conditions, especially in the harsh winter, and the low-temperature performance of electric vehicles has become the key to evaluating their practicability. In order to gain a deeper understanding of how these models perform in cold environments, a number of models such as the Lynk & Co 08 EM-P, BYD Corvette 07, Wenjie M7 and Xpeng G6 have recently undergone a series of rigorous winter tests.
In these tests, the first thing that is put under the microscope is the heating efficiency of the vehicle in a low-temperature environment. In temperatures between minus 10 and minus 15 degrees Celsius, the heating capacity of the vehicle is directly related to the comfort of the driver and passengers.
In this round of testing, the Lynk & Co 08 EM-P impressed with its excellent fast heating ability. It took only 15 minutes for the car to raise the interior temperature to 15, far more than other models, and finally stabilized at a more comfortable 20. This performance is mainly due to the application of PTC heating technology, which achieves heating by increasing the resistance of the material, which is both efficient and safe, and greatly improves the driving comfort of the vehicle in low temperature environments.
In addition to excellent heating performance, the Lynk & Co 08 EM-P also has an advanced integrated thermal management system of oil and electricity. The system effectively boosts the heat generated by the engine and helps the vehicle to maintain the optimal temperature range. In extremely low temperature environments, the Lynk & Co 08 EM-P will preferentially run in pure electric mode and heat the passenger compartment through PTC technology. If the energy consumption of the PTC is too high or the temperature drops further, the vehicle will start the engine and use the heat generated by it to heat up further, reducing energy consumption and increasing range.
Another key metric in the test was autonomy. All four models were tested in all-electric mode until the engine or range extender needed to be started. The test results showed that the BYD Corvette 07 performed best with a mileage of 143km, and the Lynk & Co 08 EM-P performed with 1234km is a close second. The M7 and Xpeng G6 also performed quite well, although they were slightly inferior in terms of range.
These tests provide valuable information for consumers living in cold regions, not only demonstrating the performance of different vehicle models in extreme climatic conditions, but also confirming that properly selected new energy vehicles can provide an efficient and comfortable driving experience even in winter. In particular, the Lynk & Co 08 EM-P showed its strength as a model with excellent overall performance in this test, showing commendable performance in both heating efficiency and range.
