14500 battery

In addition to improving 14500 battery technology, what other ways can be used to increase the range of new energy vehicles?

With the continuous development of the new energy vehicle industry, the number of new energy vehicles has also increased year by year. According to the latest data released by the China Passenger Car Association, my country's new energy vehicle production and sales in September were 89,000 and 80,000 respectively, down 33.4% year-on-year and 8% month-on-month. Although the growth rate has eased, it does not hinder the influence of new energy vehicles in the market.

In addition to sales, the range of electric vehicles has always been a concern for consumers, especially for pure electric vehicles. Range anxiety still exists. In addition to improving battery technology, what new ways are there to increase the range? What efforts have car companies and power lithium-ion battery manufacturers made for this?

Hydrogen Cloud Chain believes that there are currently only two effective ways to increase the range of electric vehicles, namely, the energy density ratio of new power lithium-ion batteries or the lightweight body. In other words, either an electric car can carry more electricity, or the weight of the body is reduced, so that the energy consumption per 100 kilometers is greatly reduced.

Therefore, in addition to improving power lithium-ion battery technology, the most effective way to increase the range is the lightweight design of the vehicle.

As we all know, as long as the weight of the vehicle body is reduced, the rolling friction of the wheels will be smaller, and the motor will not use more output power to overcome rolling resistance, thereby effectively extending the driving range. Therefore, whether it is a fuel vehicle or a new energy vehicle, the lightweight design of the vehicle body can be used for energy saving.

According to Hydrogen Cloud Chain, many models have begun to be launched now, using all-aluminum body or steel-aluminum composite body, and the body wrapping is made of carbon fiber materials to create a lightweight body, but the disadvantage of doing so is that the cost of new energy vehicles has increased significantly, making the already high price of pure electric vehicles reach a new high. Therefore, increasing the energy density of power lithium-ion batteries may be the ultimate way to solve the range anxiety of new energy vehicles.

Of course, methods such as reducing motor power, reducing wind resistance coefficient, using pure electric exclusive platform, and adopting extended range design may improve the range on the side, but to achieve true range anxiety, solving power lithium-ion battery technology and charging rate can be completely solved.

In short, power lithium-ion battery technology is not the only way to increase the range of new energy vehicles. Improvements in many aspects of the car can achieve certain energy-saving effects.
