Must see! How to choose a hybrid car？ One article takes you to buy easily →

With the rapid development of new energy vehicles

Hybrid cars are favored by more and more consumers.

The design concept of "dual use of oil and electricity" makes people feel "really fragrant"

However, there are many hybrid car models.

Let many consumers make it difficult to choose.

Then follow the experts.

Understanding Hybrid Vehicle from Technical System

Choose the car that suits you best.

What is a hybrid car?

Hybrid electric vehicles are referred to as "hybrid vehicles" and generally refer toCombining the traditional internal combustion engine technology with the motor technology.As a power source, a car canSwitching power sources under different driving conditionsSo as to optimize the energy use efficiency and give consideration to the endurance of fuel vehicles and the environmental protection characteristics of electric vehicles.

According to the structural form of power system

Series hybrid electric vehicle (SHEV)

Only the engine works to drive the generator to provide drive for the motor.

√ Advantages

The engine always generates electricity in the high efficiency range, which can provide a smoother driving experience and fuel-saving effect at low speed, and the energy recovery system is also more efficient.

X shortcomings

When driving at high speed or needing high power output, the fuel consumption performance is poor, and the motor conversion efficiency is reduced, resulting in higher fuel consumption than ordinary fuel vehicles.

Parallel hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV)

The engine and motor can work simultaneously or separately.

√ Advantages

In pure electric drive mode, the use cost is low; In the hybrid drive mode, the dynamic performance is excellent.

X shortcomings

We can’t rely solely on pure electric drive for a long time, and we can’t fully reflect the economic advantages of electric new energy. In pure fuel mode, fuel consumption may be difficult to control.

Series-parallel hybrid electric vehicle (CHEV)

The engine can also generate electricity while driving the output with the motor.

√ Advantages

Combining the advantages of series and parallel technology, the fuel economy, power output energy efficiency, cruising range and driving experience are better.

X shortcomings

The overall system layout of the automobile is more complex, and the requirements for the control system are higher, so the daily maintenance cost is relatively high.

According to the external charging function

Plug-in hybrid electric Vehicle

A hybrid electric vehicle that can obtain electric energy from off-board devices under normal use.

Unplugged hybrid electric vehicle

A hybrid electric vehicle that obtains all the energy from on-board fuel under normal use.

How to choose a hybrid car that suits you?

Charging condition

√ There are charging conditions:Suggested choicePlug-in hybrid vehicle, convenient for power supply, not limited by time and place. with regard toShort daily commuteFor consumers, it can maximize the economy.

× No charging condition:It is recommended to choose an electric drive with a long cruising range and support DC fast charging.Series hybrid vehicle, series hybrid vehicle or non-plug-in hybrid vehicleWhen the power is insufficient, you can still rely on the internal combustion engine to work, which avoids the problem of mileage anxiety and reduces the inconvenience of frequent charging and charging time.

Fuel consumption situation

In addition to the actual fuel consumption performance of the car, it is recommended to choose.Low loss/feed fuel consumptionA hybrid car.

In the case of no charging, the output economy of the engine determines the use cost.

ifOften run long distances.% of consumers don’t recommend choosing series hybrid cars, because the economy of high-speed fuel consumption is relatively poor, so choose.Parallel and series-parallel hybrid vehiclesMore appropriate.

Loss of electricity and fuel consumptionRefers to the fuel consumption that depends solely on the engine for output when the automobile is exhausted or insufficient.

Feed oil consumptionRefers to the fuel consumption of the engine not only for power output, but also for charging the battery.

Power battery capacity

The sustainability of the peak power output of the motor is often limited by the output of the battery.

If necessary, often.Long distance driving, high capacity batteryThe model is a better choice;

If it is mainlyShort-distance travel in cities, you can consider choosing.Medium or low capacity batteryTo balance cost and performance.

Mileage

Suggest according to oneselfDaily commuting or traveling.Demand, choiceMatches the pure electric cruising range version.Our car.

At the same timePay attention to whether the model supports the fast charging function.In this way, the charging station can be better used for quick charging, and the use cost can be reduced through pure electric driving.

rated power

Refers to the stable output power of a car for a long time.

with regard toDaily driving in citiesConsumers, it is recommended to choose.Moderate rated powerThe model of.

For oftenTraveling with full load or driving at high speedConsumers, it is recommended to choose.Rated power is higherThe model of.

Weibao agency

selectMaintenance outlets cover a wide range.Brand, can facilitate maintenance and repair in daily use, to a certain extent, reduce the use cost and traffic inconvenience during maintenance.

Warranty interest

Need to know and compare the quality assurance policies of different brands and models, and choose to provide them.The warranty period is long.andThe warranty content is more comprehensive.Our car.
