What causes the power output limitation in Chery Ant?
4 Answers
Chery Ant's power output limitation may occur due to the following reasons: 1. Causes: Overheating or overcooling of the power battery will limit the power output, which is a protective measure. This is acceptable in extreme weather conditions and does not indicate a defect in the battery temperature control system. However, if the voltage difference between individual battery cells exceeds 200mv, a "small turtle" warning will appear. This is also a protective measure, but it indicates a problem that needs to be addressed. It is recommended to visit a 4S store to apply for replacement of either low-voltage or high-voltage battery cells. 2. Comparison: The appearance of the "small turtle" warning is not unique to the 726 model; it also occurs frequently in the 729 model. It has been observed in the 151 and 251 series as well, though it is more common in the 726 model. Moreover, it tends to appear shortly after use, clearly indicating poor consistency in the Jiewei batteries, likely due to inadequate grouping and capacity determination during production.
I've been driving the Chery Ant for over a year and have encountered power output limitation issues several times, feeling sluggish acceleration as if being held back. The most common situation is when the battery level is too low—the car automatically reduces power to protect the battery from discharging too quickly. During hot summer days, if the motor's cooling can't keep up, the system will limit power output. Similarly, in cold weather, the battery's efficiency drops due to low temperatures, leading to the same issue. Hardware-wise, faulty sensors misleading the system or software bugs could also trigger this. Solutions: First, check the remaining battery level and try charging it; if it's hot outside, pull over to let the car cool down before continuing; you can also restart the car to reset the system. If the problem persists frequently, take it to the shop for inspection—don't delay, safety comes first. Experience tells me that understanding your car's condition can reduce trouble.
Power limitation is a protective mechanism on electric vehicles. Common causes include preventing over-discharge when the battery is low, avoiding motor overheating in high-temperature environments, and reduced battery performance in cold conditions. It could also be due to unstable circuit connections, such as loose plugs, or software misjudgment from outdated updates. If this happens, don't panic: check the dashboard for warning messages, measure the battery voltage, and avoid leaving the battery at zero charge for too long during regular charging. Try restarting the vehicle to see if it returns to normal. If the issue persists, it's recommended to visit a 4S shop for technicians to inspect hardware like the motor controller or update the system software. Taking preventive measures ensures a more worry-free driving experience.
It's quite annoying when the power output of the Chery Ant is limited while driving, as it may affect overtaking or climbing hills. The reasons are usually related to poor battery conditions: low charge, poor heat dissipation at high temperatures, or reduced battery performance in cold weather. Simple solutions include driving slower and avoiding hard acceleration to prevent exacerbating the issue; check the dashboard for warnings—if it's due to high temperature, pull over to let it cool down. Routine maintenance includes regular battery health checks and using standard charging stations to avoid overcharging or deep discharging. For safety, preheat the battery for about ten minutes before heading out, especially in winter. This can prevent unexpected issues and ensure a smooth ride.
