What Does the Battery Symbol on a New Energy Vehicle Dashboard Mean?
2 Answers
If a battery symbol appears on the car dashboard, it indicates that the battery is currently powering the vehicle's electronic devices. Additional information is as follows: 1. Introduction: New energy vehicles refer to automobiles that utilize unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new onboard power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving systems, resulting in vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and innovative structures. 2. Classification: New energy vehicles include pure electric vehicles, extended-range electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, hydrogen engine vehicles, etc.
When the battery symbol suddenly appears on the dashboard of my new energy vehicle while driving, my first reaction is not to panic, as it might not be a big deal. In my daily use, it often just reminds me that the battery is low, warning that it's almost out of power, and the system will automatically enter power-saving mode, commonly known as "turtle mode," where the speed slows down to avoid a breakdown. However, if the symbol flashes, it's more dangerous, such as indicating battery overheating or internal failure. Once, I neglected it, and the car stopped midway. Later, the mechanic told me it was caused by loose battery connection wires. The solution is simple: find a safe place to stop and try charging it; if the symbol doesn't disappear, go to a professional shop for inspection immediately. This can prevent greater losses and avoid damaging the battery's lifespan. Developing a regular charging habit and not letting the battery run out can usually reduce the occurrence of such alerts.
