How many kilowatt-hours does it take to fully charge an Ora?

[MacColin]

It takes approximately 35 kilowatt-hours to fully charge an Ora. Introduction: Ora is an electric vehicle brand under Great Wall Motors, established in 2018. Among Chinese automotive companies, Great Wall was the first to establish an independent new energy brand with dedicated management for its new energy vehicle business. With the launch of the Ora ORA brand, China's first dedicated electric vehicle platform—the ME platform—was introduced. This platform integrates advanced smart connectivity technologies from the chassis to both interior and exterior design, achieving substantial breakthroughs in space, safety, efficiency, and other aspects. Brand Positioning: Ora positions itself as a car brand that loves women more, committed to establishing correct values for the industry in treating female users. Based on China's first dedicated electric vehicle platform—the ME platform—Ora creates a series of high-quality products for users, market and user-oriented, rejecting "oil-to-electric" conversions and avoiding "policy arbitrage vehicles."

The amount of electricity required to fully charge an Ora electric vehicle primarily depends on its battery capacity. Taking the popular Ora Good Cat as an example, the standard version has a battery capacity of approximately 45.99 kWh, which means it theoretically requires nearly 46 kWh for a full charge. However, actual charging involves energy loss, such as charger efficiency typically ranging from 85% to 90%, resulting in an actual consumption of about 50 to 52 kWh. Differences between models are significant: the entry-level Ora Black Cat has a smaller battery, requiring around 35 kWh for a full charge, while high-end versions or newer models may require over 60 kWh. Factors affecting actual electricity consumption include the charging method—fast charging loses more heat energy, reducing efficiency, whereas slow charging is more accurate. Temperature also plays a role, as colder weather increases battery internal resistance, leading to higher energy consumption. As the battery ages and its capacity decreases, the amount of electricity needed for a full charge will slightly reduce, but generally fluctuates within the range of 30 to 60 kWh. Regularly checking charging equipment and battery health can help optimize actual electricity usage.

As an average car owner, my ORA requires about 40 to 50 kWh for a full charge, depending on the model. I use the Good Cat for daily commuting, with a battery capacity of around 46 kWh. In actual tests, each full charge consumes about 50 kWh, considering power line losses or temperature effects. A full charge can cover 400 kilometers, working out to an energy consumption of 0.125 kWh per kilometer, which is quite cost-effective. In terms of charging frequency, I only charge twice a week, taking advantage of low electricity rates during off-peak hours for lower costs. For new users, the ORA app allows real-time monitoring of charging levels and remaining battery, making it easy to avoid unexpected power depletion. Developing a habit of slow charging, such as an 8-hour overnight charge at home, is efficient and hassle-free. ORA offers good value for money among new energy vehicles, with transparent charging levels and generally no worries.

An Ora typically requires 30 to 60 kWh to fully charge, depending on the model. Cost calculation: Assuming an electricity price of 1 yuan per kWh, a full charge costs approximately 30 to 60 yuan, significantly lower than refueling a gasoline car. For example, the Ora Black Cat has a 33 kWh battery, with actual consumption around 35 kWh. Factors affecting costs include charging time—avoiding peak hours when electricity prices are higher—and battery health. New batteries charge more accurately, while aging may slightly increase consumption. Simple maintenance, such as keeping the charging port clean, can reduce energy waste.
