What is the service life of electric vehicles?
1 Answers
There are generally no national regulations regarding the service life of electric vehicles, so the service life of an electric vehicle depends on the lifespan of its battery. Generally, an electric vehicle can be used for 100,000 kilometers without any issues. Below is a detailed introduction to electric vehicles: 1. Concept: A Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) refers to a vehicle that uses an on-board power source as its power, drives the wheels with an electric motor, and meets all the requirements of road traffic and safety regulations. It operates using electricity stored in the battery. When driving the car, sometimes 12 or 24 batteries are used, and sometimes more are needed. 2. Types: The types of electric vehicles include Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV), Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV), and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV). 3. Power source: Provides electrical energy to the drive motor of the electric vehicle, and the motor converts the electrical energy from the power source into mechanical energy. The most widely used power source is the lead-acid battery, but with the development of electric vehicle technology, lead-acid batteries are gradually being replaced by other batteries due to their low energy density, slow charging speed, and short lifespan. The power sources currently under development mainly include sodium-sulfur batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries, lithium batteries, fuel cells, and other new types of power sources.
