Can I turn on the air conditioning while charging my car?
1 Answers
Yes, but it is not recommended. Here is the relevant information: Cooling: It is best not to turn on the air conditioning, as this will increase power consumption and slow down the charging speed. In gasoline cars, when cooling is needed, the AC button must be pressed, which engages the compressor clutch. At this point, the engine drives the compressor to operate, allowing the compressor to continuously compress the refrigerant and deliver it to the evaporator. Compressor: In electric vehicles, the compressor is driven by an electric motor because EVs do not have an engine to power the compressor. Pure electric vehicles have no extra vibration or noise when the motor is running, so the interior quietness of pure electric vehicles during driving is better.
