Does the Li ONE need refueling?
2 Answers
Li ONE does not require refueling, but it can be refueled when out of battery. Here is more information about Li ONE: 1. Suspension: The front suspension adopts MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension uses a multi-link independent combination. 2. Body dimensions: Li ONE is an extended-range hybrid electric vehicle with body dimensions of 5020mm in length, 1960mm in width, 1760mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2935mm. 3. Ground clearance: The minimum ground clearance is 180mm, the body weight is 2300kg, and the fuel tank capacity is 45 liters.
I've been driving the Li ONE for a while now. Essentially, it's a range-extended electric vehicle, meaning it's purely electric-driven but comes with a small gasoline engine that acts as a generator. Driving around the city, it relies solely on the battery, with a single charge covering about 150 kilometers, completely eliminating the need for gas. However, on highways or long trips, once the battery runs out, you'll need to refuel. The engine kicks in to recharge the battery, boosting the range to over 800 kilometers. I find this design quite balanced—it retains the quietness and cost-saving benefits of an electric car while addressing range anxiety. The frequency of refueling depends on your driving habits: city drivers might only need to fill up every few weeks, while long-distance enthusiasts may need to top up weekly. The key is that the refueling system is straightforward, no different from a regular SUV, and it runs on standard 92-octane gasoline, making it hassle-free. During maintenance, some attention should be paid to the engine components, ensuring key parts are lubricated. Overall, it can run without refueling, but adding gas makes it more versatile and practical.
