On holidays, oil trucks and trams inevitably "pinch each other", and most of them have recently gained the upper hand. Recently, heavy snow and freezing rain continued, and the oil truck finally got back, sneering that the tram did not dare to turn on the air conditioner. So, what impact does this have on new energy commercial vehicles?
Nowadays, new energy vehicles have become the second "Chinese business card" after high-speed rail, especially electric vehicles. When the highway is stuck in traffic for a long time in summer and autumn, the tram often "laughs" at the reluctance of some oil cars to turn on the air conditioner, and they can discharge electricity to eat hot pot.
Having said that, even though the tram is so good, it is still facing it."The cruising range is short, the energy replenishment speed is slow, and the charging facilities are insufficientand other pain points. However, this does not affect the use of trams in normal weather, especially in urban areas.
In extremely cold weather, everything changes dramatically! On top of that, there are serious problems such as battery life and the lack of air conditioning. Test data shows that when the tram is parked and the air conditioner is turned on for 12 hours, at least half of the electricity will be lost, and if the power is exhausted, it can only be called a tow truck.
In comparison, the oil truck is much easier. Generally speaking, the idle speed of the oil truck consumes about 1-2L of fuel per hour, and the air conditioner consumes about 20 liters of fuel for 12 hours, which can still be sustained. Even if you run out of gas, fill the tank with fuel or borrow some fuel from the next car and you can run again.
What's more, in extremely cold weather, the battery not only decreases battery activity, the range is greatly reduced, but it also needs to consume more power to "warm" the battery and system. This is a major pain point in the use of trams, which has not been completely solved, restricting its use in extremely cold weather.
Whether it is a fuel car or a tram, it is a serious challenge to encounter a long-term traffic jam on the highway in extremely cold weather, and it is necessary to measure the amount of oil and electricity, turn on the air conditioner reasonably for heating, and strive to drive safely to the next service area. In this situation, for cardholders, how should they choose oil cars and trams?
From the perspective of endurance and energy replenishment, the advantages of fuel vehicles or hybrid vehicles are more obvious, and the maturity is very high, especially for long-distance travel or remote areas, which is more convenient to use. WhileTrams have limited range and insufficient charging stations, making them more suitable for urban or short-distance travel.
According to the survey, only about 30% of truck drivers in the country have relatively fixed transportation routes, and most of the rest are scattered transportation practitioners. That is to say, the vast majority of truck drivers do not have a fixed daily transportation route and transport goods.
Therefore, petrol vehicles and trams have different advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of which type of vehicle depends on the needs of the car. If there are relatively fixed transportation routes and the range of use is controllable, it may be more cost-effective to choose a tram. If the use scenarios are complex, the application range is wide, and the transportation of goods is diverse, you can choose oil vehicles, hybrids, and carefully choose trams.
Afterword
Aside from the impact of extremely cold weather, how to choose a fuel car or tram depends on your own needs. The adaptability of oil trucks is relatively strong, but the cost of using the car is relatively high, and the right of way is restricted; Trams can meet the needs of urban distribution or closed area scenarios, and the right of way is good but the scope of use is restricted. Hybrid vehicles can meet the needs of intercity small, medium and heavy-duty vehicles, and are more popular in northern regions.
