Do new energy vehicles have transmissions?
1 Answers
Pure electric vehicles do have transmissions. Pure electric vehicles rely on battery packs to drive the motor for power output. Almost all electric vehicle models are equipped with a single-speed transmission, unlike gasoline-powered vehicles which have variable-speed transmissions. Here are the advantages of pure electric vehicles: 1. Environmental protection: Electric vehicles use power battery packs and motors for driving, which do not produce exhaust gases or tailpipe pollution during operation. This is highly beneficial for environmental protection and air cleanliness, making them virtually 'zero pollution'. 2. Low noise: Electric vehicles do not generate the same level of noise as conventional vehicles, and the noise they produce is almost negligible. 3. Economical: The operating cost of electric vehicles is low, about one-fifth that of gasoline-powered vehicles. They also have high energy conversion efficiency and can recover energy during braking and downhill driving, improving energy utilization efficiency. Charging during nighttime using the grid's low-cost 'off-peak electricity' helps balance the grid's peak and off-peak differences. 4. Easy maintenance: Electric vehicles use motors and batteries for driving, eliminating the need for the tedious maintenance items required by traditional engines, such as oil changes, filter replacements, and belt changes. Electric vehicles only require regular inspections of components like the motor and battery.
