What does DM mean on a car?
1 Answers
DM on a car stands for EV plus HE. EV is pure electric, HEV is hybrid electric, so DM refers to a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. Hybrid electric vehicles are currently the trend in new energy vehicle systems. A hybrid electric vehicle is one that has two power sources. These two different power sources work together during driving, significantly reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, achieving environmental protection and fuel efficiency. The advantages of hybrid vehicles over traditional fuel-powered cars are that they are cleaner and have higher fuel efficiency. Hybrid vehicles reduce the consumption of fossil fuels, saving users operating costs. Every time a hybrid vehicle brakes, it is a process of energy recovery. The kinetic energy of the car can be converted into electrical energy and stored in the battery. In continuous downhill situations, it can also function as a hill descent control, reducing the use of the braking system and ensuring driving safety.
