How far can a 60v20a tricycle travel?
3 Answers
60v20a tricycle can theoretically travel up to 60 kilometers. Here is the relevant introduction about vehicle mileage: Composition of vehicle odometer: The vehicle odometer actually consists of two meters, one is the speedometer, and the other is the odometer. The speedometer indicates the speed of the car in km/h (kilometers per hour). The vehicle odometer is generally located directly in front of the driver's position. Introduction to vehicle mileage: Under normal circumstances, most people's cars travel about 50,000 kilometers per year, and with 50,000 kilometers as a stage, each stage of the total mileage requires relatively large maintenance and repair. Small and mini non-operating passenger cars have no service life limit, and the maximum reference mileage for scrapping is 600,000 kilometers.
My 60V20A electric tricycle delivers goods every day, and it can easily run 50 to 70 kilometers on a full charge. It mainly depends on how heavy the load is—hauling two bags of rice versus ten crates of mineral water makes a huge difference in power consumption. If you drive on flat roads at a steady speed of around 30 km/h, it can last 50 to 60 kilometers. But if you’re constantly going uphill or frequently braking and accelerating, the battery drains rapidly. It runs farther in warm weather, but the battery drains much faster in cold conditions. For older batteries that have been used for one or two years, expect about 70% of the original range—don’t count on them performing like new. Oh, and it’s best not to wait until the battery is completely dead before charging; topping it up when two bars remain is better for battery health.
Just helped my uncle calculate his vegetable-hauling tricycle. The 60V20A lead-acid battery holds about 1.2 kWh. With an 800W motor running unloaded at constant speed, theoretically it can go around 75 km. But in reality, carrying 150 kg on national highways with traffic light stops, it's about 55 km after a 30% discount. In winter when temperatures drop below zero, it's worse, shrinking to just over 40 km. Switching to lithium batteries could extend the range by 1/4, though they're more expensive. A quick tip: low tire pressure increases power consumption by 10%, and adding a windbreak cloth to the rear compartment saves electricity. If the battery capacity drops to 80% after two years, it's safest to estimate a range of 45 km directly.
