A senior player in the eyes of the calf electric car

Cow power technology releases a new calf electric N1 yesterday, Li at the press conference introducing the Mavericks electric N1 ‘s hardware configuration and technology, must believe that the outside world has many wondering: Dallas electrical configuration, technology or price what is a concept?

Network interviewed a Lei feng has many years of experience in electric car conversion fever player Wang, while he himself is an electronics engineer, for electric car technology understand very well, let us look at the players in the eyes of the calf how electric. Lunatik iWatch frame

Lei feng’s network: yesterday’s calf electric cars, what is your impression?

King: first impression reminds me of the Sanyang Tini (bottom), two shape styles are very similar, although not strong, or at least not too ugly, because I have not seen the real, worked temporarily for evaluation of vehicle.

I am most impressed by this car should be placed under it (in the pedal position) lithium battery pack and 18.9L storage box, ordinary electric cars now on the market most of the used lead-acid batteries, volume is quite big, very barrel of locker space. Calf this under electric battery design is reasonable, can retain the maximum bin space, went out to buy a dish or something does not have to worry about no place to install.

There are before and after its 12-inch wheels than any other electric vehicle 10-inch wheels, rolling resistance will be very small, road feel is also better.

Another is price 3999 and 4999, for people who do not understand the industry, the price may seem a bit expensive, but according to the configuration of my rough estimate, let me save a car this configuration, cost almost the price, so the price is very conscientious.

But his propaganda 100km and 80km range, people who know know this is concept confusion, look good.

Lei feng’s network: 80 km and 100 km endurance, “look good” is going on here?

The old King: for this 80 km and 100 km of battery life, I think this is a very nominal figures, they say it is in a lab environment and low speed test results, you can’t refute them. But in the users actual riding conditions, it is impossible to attain, if the range of data to advertise, it is easy to mislead the user, this is conceptual confusion.

Version for 100 km mileage, laboratory 20km/h 100km mileage can be run at a constant speed, backward may discharge the battery for 5 hours, 26Ah, battery capacity, you can find out when the current is around 5A, the input power of the motor is approximately 300W, actual output may be about 270W is common sense in the power the speed can be set up. But if in a State of actual commuting, how many users will be riding a model electric motorcycle running 20km/h slow?

I think the vast majority of users are not so slow speed, such as 35 or 40km/h speed, motor need power will be much larger, 40km/h speed, to my understanding at least 800, 900W, motor output power can be. Actual motor is probably at around 1000W power consumption, by his 60V battery discharge voltage of 70V measured battery voltage, it takes about 14, 5 a of current to maintain the speed, conservative point 14A current count, 26AH, battery, battery life is 26/14=1.85 hours, multiplied by the speed of 40km/h, life is 74km.

Losing commute if frequent acceleration and braking, such as loss, actual mileage will have a 65~70km on Heaven, and this is the summer high temperature case, if it is winter, battery performance is reduced, and mileage will be further reduced, may 50km are not able to run.

Lei feng’s network: it’s main features such as integrated GPS, remote monitoring, security, what do you think about it?

Old King: this GPS module actually also not what highlights, now market Shang on has many ready-made of programme, like locomotive Ranger (following figure), and motorcycle Capricorn star, third party products, 3, and 4 years Qian we on has with Shang has, can casually installation to General Electric Shang, also can support phone App view real-time location, and lane track and alarm push sent, function, equipment costs 300 around, follow-up of service costs annual also on 100lai block money, for electric for this not what fresh of stuff.

Anti-theft feature, specifically the thief who stole the car the anti-theft feature is a tasteless, thieves are directly carried to electric van, and then pulled down her car and finally found the GPS anti-theft module and away. I have lost several friends had such equipment, not a back.

Lei feng’s network: when you said in the beginning, the impression of it, said the calf’s pricing was “man with a conscience”, then for the two price 3999 and 4999 Yuan, which one do you think is more cost-effective?

Old King: to I selected of words I will selected 3999 of that paragraph, because it compared 4999 of that paragraph, just in battery capacity Shang less has 6Ah, probably only less has 23% of battery capacity and range, but can save 1000 Yuan of price, and other configuration almost is exactly of, to I years of experience,, these range of difference for in the short distance commuter Shang of feel is almost is nothing feel of.

3999 other that batteries are lighter, charging upstairs will save energy.

Lei feng’s network: there is a problem is that it can not be normal on the road? At the press conference yesterday said no further information about the policy. iWatch bumpframe

The old King: electric motorcycle in our country has always been a grey area, it can be registered and legitimate way, it depends on the Mavs have passed the national mandatory standards and have access to list of places to put your brand on a product’s environmental manual, I don’t really know what the Mavericks have done without.

But I think that if he had such a high profile release products should not continue to cling to the grey walking.

Summary

After the Conference ended yesterday, a lot of people talked about views on the Dallas electric in the field: some people say that its higher price, it has been described as “mother”, raised on a reservation was also expressed. Although Dallas electric Lee Blessing, from being born with a Halo. But Wang said in the interview, Dallas electrical question for now is whether it can enter the road standard, while “Halo” and the form of how to continue?

According to Lei Feng network by understand to of message, national standards Management Committee early in 2010 on announced has electric motorcycle and electric light motorcycle security requirements, 4 article on electric motorcycle and electric light motorcycle of related national standards, which a items “20/40 standard”–“40 kg above, and speed 20 km above of electric bike, called light electric motorcycle or electric motorcycle, designated into motor vehicle category”.

Apparently Dallas electric was consistent with this standard, as of right now, most of the domestic electric car still wandering at the edge of law. Li said the Mavericks electric lithium revolution brought, then the grey areas of policy it will bring revolution?

Note: network edit @ hero of Lei Feng contributed to this report.

Calf N1 a smart electric car

Calf electric from launches Shang revealed of parameter and configuration, undoubtedly is market Shang very excellent of a paragraph electric products, from electric most core of battery Shang, you will see 170 section 2600mAh capacity of Panasonic 18650 lithium battery combination provides 1560wh power, and over 80km of range, and 6 hours full, and battery life 5 years, but from function Shang for, calf electric of intelligent of also compared primary.
