How to use new energy vehicles to maximize battery life? As a new energy vehicle practitioner, here are some suggestions:
1. Charging habits
Maintain the battery power at 20%-80%, and avoid long-term full discharge (<20%) or full charge (100%). Lithium iron phosphate batteries can be fully charged and calibrated occasionally, and ternary lithium batteries should be fully charged with caution.
Use slow charging more often in daily life and fast charging less (for emergency use). Charge as you use to avoid deep discharge.
2. Temperature control
Avoid exposure to the sun or extremely cold environments when parking. High temperature accelerates battery aging, and low temperature reduces activity. Ensure that the battery temperature returns to normal temperature (20-30℃) before charging.
Remotely preheat the battery in advance in winter, and avoid charging immediately after high-speed driving in summer.
3. Driving and use
Drive smoothly, reduce sudden acceleration/sudden braking, and reduce high-current discharge pressure. Reasonably use high-gear energy recovery to balance endurance and driving experience.
4. Long-term parking
Keep the battery at 50%-70%, check and recharge monthly to prevent over-discharge or attenuation.
5. Maintenance and upgrade
Update the battery management system (BMS) regularly, use the original charging equipment, and avoid voltage fluctuations.
Check the battery health status (such as capacity, internal resistance) every year, and check abnormalities in time.
6. Special circumstances
Charge to 100% before long-distance travel. It is recommended to complete it 1-2 hours before departure to reduce the full-charge static time.
Avoid deep wading to prevent the circuit from getting wet (although the battery is waterproof, risks still need to be avoided).
How can new energy vehicles be used to ensure the maximum battery life? Core concept: gentle charging and discharging (small current, moderate power), avoid extreme temperatures, and regular maintenance. The life of ternary lithium batteries is about 8 years+, and lithium iron phosphate batteries are longer, about 10 years (but generally determined according to the technical requirements and warranty agreement of the battery factory).
