Speaking of the experience of using electricity for this new energy vehicle, first of all, it saves a lot of fuel money, and secondly, it runs around for charging.
Today’s post doesn’t talk about whether it really saves money, but just wants to report how to better utilize the advantages of this car’s electricity consumption.
1. The design of this car perfectly balances the use of oil and electricity. Use oil for long distances and have electricity for short distances in the city. It is energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and reduces noise. However, it is really troublesome to have no place to charge at home, and the design only has AC slow charging. There are very few such charging piles in the market. Compared with the Mercedes-Benz new energy design, it lacks both AC and DC. For convenience, there must be a charging station nearby, and then buy a DC-to-AC equipment, which costs more than 1,500 – 2,000 yuan. If you are not afraid of the trouble of coming out to pick up the car at night, this plug-in hybrid will become very meaningful. Otherwise, the car is really unnecessary. The overall fuel consumption is not low at all.
2. This car provides a battery of 17.7 kilowatt-hours, which is nominally more than 90 kilometers. It is too empty. It is a limit to running 70 kilometers purely in urban areas. My maximum is only 68 kilometers. The air conditioner is too chilly in winter, less than 40 kilometers. Therefore, turning on the air conditioner consumes a lot of power. Once, it warmed up before going out in the morning, but the mission to go out was cancelled, resulting in 1/4 of the power consumption. Based on experience.
3. If this car is not charged and runs while charging with oil, I have never actually calculated it, but I feel that the fuel consumption is very high and outrageous. The overall fuel consumption is no less than 10 fuels per 100 kilometers. So if there is no place to charge, there is no need to buy a hybrid new energy vehicle.
4. Speaking of the good things, the cost is indeed saved, about 1/3 of the gas cost, which is a rough calculation. There is enough power, and urban roads are as powerful as gasoline engines. The noise is low. When the electricity ran out that day, the gasoline engine was working, and the big baby at home couldn’t adapt to it. It was too noisy.
5. Some friends are struggling with how to control the drive with a gasoline engine. They just need to turn the gear lever to manual or select the sports mode. The low-power version of this car, 2.0T, is not very sporty and is not as good as the 3 Series.
6. However, you must remember that since you can charge it, you should use less gasoline engines to charge it. It is not cost-effective. Reserve some electricity when using the car and run on congested roads to save money if you have no electricity and cannot achieve remote temperature control.
