How many kilowatt-hours does it take to fully charge a GAC Aion?
2 Answers
It takes about 60 kilowatt-hours to fully charge a GAC Aion. Precautions for car charging: Before charging a battery in cold weather, check whether the electrolyte is frozen. Do not charge a frozen battery, as it may cause an explosion. Also, check the electrolyte level before charging; do not charge if the electrolyte is insufficient. Precautions for battery usage: Avoid leaving the car parked in an open parking lot for extended periods. If long-term parking is necessary, remove the battery and take it with you to prevent freezing damage. Do not use car electrical appliances after turning off the engine. Using the battery alone when the engine is not generating electricity can cause damage.
As an electric vehicle user, I think this issue is crucial because the electricity consumption for a full charge of GAC AION depends on the specific model. For example, the AION S has a battery capacity of approximately 50 to 60 kWh, while the AION LX could be as high as 90 to 95 kWh. During actual charging, not all the input goes into the battery—due to charging conversion efficiency and heat loss, the electricity you actually draw from the grid may be 10% to 15% more. For instance, a car with a nominal 60 kWh battery might consume around 66 kWh for a full charge. This affects your electricity bill, so it's advisable to use a home slow charger to improve efficiency and reduce waste. When choosing a model, don't just rely on official data; conducting several actual charging tests to see the measured values is more reliable. Additionally, regular battery maintenance can extend its lifespan and reduce extra consumption.
