The difference between new energy vehicles and fuel vehicles and the corresponding maintenance

The reason why electric vehicles have become the new favorite of modern urban transportation is that they have the advantages of zero emission, silence and economy. For many consumers, new energy vehicles need regular maintenance just like fuel vehicles. But in fact, due to their different power sources and operation methods, some necessary maintenance measures are also different. Do consumers need to know whether new energy vehicles need maintenance before buying them? What's the difference between it and a tanker? And why new energy maintenance is so expensive.

Maintenance and repair of new energy vehicles

Compared with traditional fuel vehicles, the maintenance of electric vehicles is simpler, but some precautions are still needed. The connection of the charger should be correct and reliable, and the cable of the charger should be hung on the plug to avoid winding on the car body. At the same time, the battery life of electric vehicles has a great relationship with the charging method, and avoiding excessive discharge is good for battery life. In addition, in the process of use, it is necessary to regularly check the tightness of the wheels, keep the tires in good condition, and ensure the firmness and safety of use.

Regular maintenance is also very important for new energy vehicles. Usually, the brake oil of electric vehicles is changed every 30,000 kilometers, and the replacement interval of other components depends on the actual use. Although the load of electric vehicles is not as high as that of fuel vehicles, there are many electronic components used, including batteries and motors, so it is necessary to check the circuit system regularly.

The difference between new energy vehicles and fuel vehicles

1. power supply

The power source of fuel vehicle is engine, and the power source of new energy vehicle is battery. Electric energy is converted into mechanical energy, thus pushing the vehicle forward. Different from fuel vehicles, new energy vehicles do not need mechanical equipment such as engines and transmission systems in the traditional sense, which can reduce the quality problems caused by mechanical equipment wear.

2. Maintenance costs

Although the maintenance of new energy vehicles is simple, the labor cost in maintenance is very high, which also leads to the relatively high maintenance cost of new energy vehicles. Battery is the core component of new energy vehicles. If the battery needs to be replaced, the maintenance cost of the whole vehicle will rise sharply. Different from fuel vehicles, the electronic equipment and technology of new energy vehicles are very advanced, which means that maintenance requires special technical support and higher level maintenance.

Why is new energy maintenance so expensive?

The maintenance of new energy vehicles is mainly due to its high technical content and quick replacement of spare parts. According to industry insiders, the new energy auto parts on the market can't keep up with the use time of electric vehicles. Once the accessories deteriorate further, the after-sales expenses will rise, which is also a common phenomenon of new energy vehicles at present.

Compared with the replacement of fuel engine, the replacement cost of electric engine is higher. Moreover, there are thousands of control circuits, and the price of the main control chip of high-end electric vehicles has even reached the price of thousands. These are the reasons that lead to the high maintenance cost of new energy vehicles.

abstract

Although new energy vehicles and fuel vehicles are different in maintenance, they both need regular maintenance to ensure the safety and reliability of vehicles. For new energy vehicles, a higher level of maintenance and more scientific and technological support are needed. This means that the maintenance cost may be higher than that of traditional fuel vehicles. Consumers need to understand the characteristics, maintenance methods and costs of new energy vehicles, be prepared for timely maintenance, and better protect themselves and their cars.
