1. The impact of low temperature on battery life
Usually,
Electric Car use lithium iron phosphate batteries or ternary lithium batteries as energy storage devices. Charging and discharging is a chemical reaction process. When the temperature is low, the chemical reaction process is slower, and the charging and discharging speed is also affected accordingly. The low-temperature performance of lithium iron phosphate batteries is slightly worse, which has a greater impact on battery life attenuation. Reasonable battery temperature can not only ensure sufficient charging and discharging power, but also save electricity and extend battery life.
2. The impact of heat source on battery life
Defrosting, another function related to warm air, will also consume some power. Whether the window is clear directly affects driving safety. Usually, the defrosting function is achieved by heating the glass or warm air with electric heating wires. Of course, it will also consume power and further reduce battery life.
3. Charge in time to avoid over-discharge
Try to charge the vehicle in time after using it every day. At this time, the battery temperature is relatively high, ensuring high-power charging of the battery and providing protection for the next day's travel.
New Car should avoid being idle for a long time. The self-discharge characteristics of the battery may cause over-discharge and affect the battery life.
4. The impact of tire pressure on cruising range
Due to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction of air, when the temperature drops, the tire pressure will drop accordingly, causing the tire to contact the ground area to increase. More resistance will inevitably consume more power, resulting in a decrease in cruising range. Whether it is a gasoline car or an electric car, insufficient tire pressure will cause excessive resistance, affecting safety and exacerbating the reduction in cruising range. Check the tire pressure in time and replenish it to the manufacturer's rated value when necessary.
5. Antifreeze glass water
If the freezing point of glass water in winter is higher than the ambient temperature, it will cause the ice volume to expand, and the glass cannot be cleaned, affecting safety and may also cause damage to the glass water tank, water pump, and pipeline. The freezing point of water is 0℃. When the ambient temperature is lower than the freezing point, the water will freeze and expand. Replacing glass water with a corresponding freezing point according to the environment can avoid such problems, ensure driving safety and avoid damage to the vehicle. For example: replace antifreeze glass water with a freezing point of -30℃ in the north.
