Why does an electric vehicle suddenly lose power when going uphill?
1 Answers
It may be due to battery issues. Here are the solutions: 1. Battery under-voltage: When going uphill, the high power demand may exceed the battery's capacity, causing the vehicle to malfunction. 2. Poor battery contact: Loosen the battery terminals, boil them in hot water for a few minutes, rinse the connectors, tighten them, and apply some lubricant. 3. Replace the battery. Under normal conditions, a car battery can last between 1 to 8 years. If the alternator is functioning properly and there are no leakage issues, the battery can last over three years. The actual lifespan largely depends on the vehicle's usage conditions.
