Riding an electric car, the faster the more power saving? Or is it slower and more power efficient?

In the past two years, long-range electric vehicles have become more and more popular, and consumers have higher and higher requirements for range.

Recently, some users have suggested that the faster the cycling, the better the energy saving effect? Or is it better to save energy at lower speeds?

I just gave you a statistic, now the major electric vehicle manufacturers, the maximum range of electric vehicles, are based on 25 kilometers per hour.

This speed, when riding, can be said to be a more power-saving speed, many people will ask, running fast, or running slow, will it be more power-saving? Of course, if we go slower, we can save more electricity, because we want to buy an electric car that is faster than a bicycle.

In fact, the energy saving of electric bicycles is not only about speed, but also related to the weight, temperature, and driving habits of the bicycle.

1. The relationship between electric vehicle power saving and riding weight.

People who ride electric vehicles, in the process of riding bicycles, in addition to themselves, also carry a lot of heavy things, which means that the weight of the vehicle has exceeded the capacity of the vehicle, at this time, riding an electric vehicle, will increase power consumption, thus greatly reducing the mileage.

This puts forward a requirement for all car owners, if you want to save energy for electric vehicles, you must pay attention to not overloading, not overloading, and not loading heavy objects on the vehicle casually, otherwise it will seriously reduce the battery life.

2. The relationship between power saving and temperature of electric vehicles.

The ideal driving temperature of electric vehicles is 25 degrees Celsius, which is related to its core component - the battery, because most electric vehicles now use lead-acid batteries, and the optimal charging and discharging temperature of lead-acid batteries is 25 degrees Celsius, if it is too hot or too cold, it will reduce the service life of the battery.

Especially in winter, the average battery life will be shortened by one-third to one-half, and as the temperature rises, the power will also increase, which is something to be aware of.

3. The relationship between power saving and riding habits of electric vehicles.

Finally, if you want to make electric vehicles more energy-efficient and energy-efficient, you must develop good cycling habits, such as not braking suddenly, not stopping suddenly, not climbing steep slopes, and you can take the method of pushing.

Due to different driving habits, the amount of battery discharge will also vary, which in turn will have a certain impact on the range of the entire car.

Of course, like I said at the beginning, you can ride slower if the bike is permitted, which saves more energy. What do you think about this? Comments are welcome.
