Abstract

Pure electric vehicles are a hot topic in today’s social development. From beginning to end, the energy density of power batteries in pure electric vehicles is generally low, resulting in short range, inaccurate range estimation, and driver anxiety. This is also one of the reasons that hinder the promotion of pure electric vehicles. This article discusses the energy consumption of pure electric vehicles based on actual road tests. By comparing the battery energy efficiency of various roads (including urban roads, suburban roads, and highways) using electric vehicles from Guangzhou to Qingyuan, the energy consumption patterns of pure electric vehicles are analyzed. Experiments have shown that continuously improving the energy density of power batteries is the key technology to solve the problem of insufficient range for electric vehicles. Based on the existing power battery technology, this study investigates the relationship between energy consumption and various factors affecting electric vehicles, which can provide better reference for drivers to predict energy consumption and range.
