Can the Ora Black Cat Drive on Highways?
2 Answers
Ora Black Cat can drive on highways. Here is some information about electric vehicles: 1. In China, electric vehicles with a minimum speed of no less than 60 km/h and properly licensed can drive on highways. Unlicensed electric vehicles are not allowed on highways. 2. Regarding range, highway driving is indeed one of the drawbacks for electric vehicles, which limits their highway capability. Theoretically, a range of 200 km before charging is acceptable, but in winter or extremely cold regions, the highway range may be reduced. Currently, in most parts of China, the distance between charging stations is controlled within 300 km.
I have been driving the Ora Black Cat electric car for some time now, and it is fully capable of highway driving. I often commute between the city and the highway. It runs quite smoothly on the highway, with a top speed of 105 km/h, fully compliant with national regulations. However, the battery range depletes faster at high speeds. My Black Cat has an official range of 350 km, but on the highway, it's more like 280 to 300 km, so it's essential to plan charging stops in advance. I use an app to locate nearby charging stations—most service areas have fast-charging ports, and a 30-minute charge can add about 100 km of range. Personally, I find driving an electric car on the highway much quieter than a gasoline car, but don’t forget to maintain a safe distance and stay within the speed limit. This way, the journey is both safe and comfortable, with no need to worry about the car.
