Differentiation advantages of extended-range vehicles in daily life.

The practical and eye-catching nature of ideal cars has given people a more intuitive understanding of extended-range electric vehicles.

The concept of adding an internal combustion engine to a purely electric vehicle to charge the power battery or directly drive the motor to increase the range may seem obscure. But starting from the actual operational experience in life, the differentiated advantage of the extended-range electric vehicle will become quite obvious.

The biggest feature of extended-range new energy vehicles, besides the “addition” of gasoline engine accessories, is the “roundabout” of its working principle.

Its engine only provides power supply instead of directly participating in driving, ensuring that the extended-range vehicle is always driven by the motor. Therefore, within a certain driving time or distance range, it can achieve the same smooth and quiet driving experience as a pure electric vehicle. And the operation in pure electric mode truly achieves the environmental significance of zero fuel consumption, zero pollution, and zero emissions.

This is undoubtedly a more economical and environmentally friendly steady-win mode compared to fuel vehicles of the same level.

Continuing to travel beyond this driving range, how does the extended-range vehicle create its steady-win situation?!

In the overall environment where infrastructure such as charging equipment has not yet been fully matured, and under practical situations such as queuing for high-speed charging, tight deadlines, etc., the extended-range with a small displacement engine and a generator directly connected to it start to work. It converts the AC power supply of the generator into a DC power supply matched with the power battery voltage to charge the power battery.

Ideal cars, as extended-range new energy vehicles, perfectly achieve the increase of range by adding an internal combustion engine to charge the power battery or directly drive the motor. This overcomes the journey anxiety of long-distance driving of pure electric vehicles, thus becoming a steady-win situation.

During high-speed driving, by opening the ideal car’s hybrid mode and using the regenerative braking, the vehicle can keep the entire battery level in a good range of 60%-70%. With relatively perfect and intelligent operation, it can provide power to the motor drive system of the power battery, as well as provide reverse drag current for the good operation of the extended-range engine. A two-way “mutual benefit” situation is thus produced.

The differentiated advantages created by Ideal Automobile in different environmental zones highlight its wisdom of seeking survival and common development in the process of market evolution, and properly increase its probability of being chosen!
