Can Electric Vehicles Wade Through Water?
1 Answers
Electric vehicles can wade through water for a short period. Here are the precautions for driving a motor vehicle through water: 1. Drive in low gear: Use a low gear (for automatic transmission models, engage the hill-climbing gear), and slowly and steadily pass through the waterlogged area while maintaining control of the steering wheel. Be aware of any potholes or gaps in the road beneath the water. 2. Do not restart the engine after stalling: If the vehicle stalls in the waterlogged area, remember not to restart the engine. A stalled engine indicates that water has entered the cylinders. Restarting it could cause severe damage to the piston connecting rod components due to the incompressibility of water, potentially leading to complete engine failure.
