What is the real range of GAC New Energy Aion V70?
2 Answers
GAC New Energy Aion V70 has a real range of 564km. Below are the detailed explanations about the range: Concept: Range refers to the total distance a vehicle, such as a car or ship, can travel continuously with its maximum fuel reserve. For electric vehicles, the range is the distance traveled from a fully charged state of the power battery until the end of the test under standard conditions. Influencing factors: Generally, the range of lead-acid batteries is about 60 kilometers. The range of lithium battery vehicles varies between 60-300 kilometers. Additionally, factors such as air conditioning usage, vehicle weight, and battery degradation can also reduce the vehicle's range.
I've been driving the Aion V70 for half a year. The official range is labeled at 610 km (CLTC standard), but in real-world driving, I average around 450 km in combined city and highway conditions. During one long trip with the air conditioning and music on, the range dropped to just over 400 km, showing how dependent it is on road conditions. The battery performs worse in low temperatures, possibly reducing the range by about 50 km when it's below zero in winter. For daily commuting under stable conditions, 450-500 km is the normal range. It's recommended to use the eco mode more often, avoid sudden braking and acceleration, and not wait until the battery is nearly empty to recharge, as this helps maintain battery health.
