Range & Performance
The range of an electric vehicle is
defined as the distance the vehicle
travels on a single full charge of the
Powerpack.
Like all vehicles, mileage will vary depending on
your riding habits and conditions. Your range
results are a direct reflection of your riding
habits. The more conservatively you ride, the
better range you can expect from your NKD.
Some of the factors which affect range include:
speed, acceleration, number of starts and stops,
ambient air temperature, terrain, tyre pressure
and load are all important considerations.
We suggest that you ride conservatively as you
get to know your NKD. Once you become
familiar with the range versus performance of
your vehicle, then you can adjust your riding
characteristics if you desire. This applies mainly
to riders with trip profiles which are at the edge
of the performance envelope.
The reported riding range is calculated using
industry standard test procedures of ‘City Riding’
which is specified to determine riding during
operation typically found in urban areas of
stop/start. Actual range will vary based on riding
conditions and habits.
Fonz is conducting further testing at 89 km/h
with the test running on a single charge, in order
to report the associated measured range values
in higher speed “Highway Riding” conditions.
Range values labeled will include “Combined”
and will be based on a calculation that assumes
a duty cycle comprising 50% City / 50%
Highway.
Maximising Range
Your real world range will be most positively
impacted by using Fonz’s regenerative braking
system to your advantage.
You will maximise this energy-recovering
function by setting up to come into a stop
early, therefore electronically braking gently
and using the ‘manual’ brakes only when
necessary, such as an emergency stop.
