What does driving range mean?
1 Answers
Driving range refers to both the comprehensive driving range and the actual driving range of a vehicle. Below are detailed explanations about driving range: 1. Comprehensive driving range: In China, when the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology tests the comprehensive driving range of pure electric vehicles, it adopts the NEDC (New European Driving Cycle) testing standard. This standard is mainly used in Europe, China, and Australia. The NEDC cycle includes 4 urban cycles and 1 suburban cycle, with lower speeds in urban cycles and higher speeds in suburban cycles. 2. Among the maximum driving range and comprehensive driving range, the comprehensive driving range is more valuable for reference. However, during actual driving, road conditions are more complex, and factors such as temperature and personal driving habits can cause the actual driving range of electric vehicles to be even lower. This is why an official comprehensive range of 320km might only achieve an actual range of 300km in real-world conditions.
