What does 36v mean for a car?
2 Answers
36v in a car refers to the voltage of the car battery being 36v. Below is a related introduction to car batteries: 1. Working principle: During charging, electrical energy is converted into chemical energy, and during discharging, chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy. When the battery discharges, lead metal is the negative electrode, undergoing an oxidation reaction and being oxidized to lead sulfate; lead dioxide is the positive electrode, undergoing a reduction reaction and being reduced to lead sulfate. 2. Battery maintenance: Avoid parking the car in an open parking lot for extended periods. If the car is to be parked for a long time, the battery should be removed and taken away to prevent it from freezing and getting damaged. The car battery should be charged frequently. If left unused for a long time, the battery will slowly discharge on its own until it becomes unusable. Therefore, the car should be started periodically to charge the battery.
I see many people are curious about the meaning of 36v in cars. It simply refers to the electrical system voltage of the entire vehicle being 36 volts. This voltage configuration is commonly found in some older vehicles, motorcycles, or specific small electric vehicles, unlike mainstream household cars which mostly adopt 12v or 48v systems nowadays. As someone who frequently repairs cars, I believe the advantage of 36v lies in its ability to provide greater power transmission efficiency, such as lower current loss when starting the engine or driving onboard devices. However, the downside is that the battery size is larger and the replacement cost is slightly higher. In terms of safety, voltage levels have no direct impact on daily driving as long as the wiring design is reasonable and regular inspections are conducted to avoid leakage risks. Economically, choosing such a vehicle requires weighing the pros and cons, and maintenance should be done at professional shops to prevent compatibility issues. Overall, while not mainstream, it holds certain market value.
