Battery Properties
• It is normal that vehicle performance
is affected by battery electrochemical
properties and self-protection.
Performance varies in the following
conditions:
• When SOC is high, regenerative
braking may decline.
• Charging switches to trickle mode
when SOC is high. If charging time is
prolonged, the estimated remaining
charging time displayed on the cluster
will be different.
• When SOC is low, acceleration
performance may decline.
• When SOC is low, VTOL* cannot be
used. Charge the battery timely.
• In high or low temperatures, it's
normal that the power battery's
charging and discharging capabilities
decline, and charging time is
prolonged. Charging with high-power
equipment is recommended to speed
up the process. Power performance
may also decline under extreme
temperatures.
• When charging in low temperatures,
the temperature control system
can significantly improve charging
capability. For details, see Charging
Precautions.
• When the vehicle is used used in
low temperatures, the battery's
temperature control system will start
heating the battery to ensure its power
and discharging performance and
improve driving experience. When the
vehicle is driver short distances, there
might be invalid heating, increased
power consumption and decreased
driving range.
• When the power battery is normal,
the driving range of the vehicle varies
according to the following:
• Driving habit: e.g. frequent
acceleration/deceleration instead of
uniform speed, or the range is shorter
when driving at high speeds than
when at low speeds.
• Road conditions: e.g. range is shorter
when driving in rough conditions or
on long slopes than when driving in
normal conditions and even roads.
• Temperature: the driving range in low
temperatures is shorter than in high
temperatures.
• Electric equipment conditions: e.g.
the range driven with A/C on is shorter
that that with A/C off.
• Power battery output is lower in cold
weather, and the power available
will decrease along with temperature
decrease. If the vehicle with high
battery level is charged in low
temperatures, the SOC may quickly
jump to 100%.
Battery Usage Tips
• The vehicle can be driven in temperatures
between -10℃ to 40℃. When SOC
is low, timely charge the vehicle to
ensure enough driving range and better
acceleration performance.
• To ensure long term performance, avoid
driving in extreme temperatures for over
24 hours.
• When temperatures drop, the vehicle can
be parked in places where temperatures
are higher, such as underground or
heated parking areas, to reduce heat loss
and ensure vehicle performance.
• Frequent sudden acceleration/
deceleration should be avoided. A/C
use increases power consumption and
reduces driving range.
• Low-power charging contributes to
power battery service life.
