A winter, the phenomenon of electric vehicles running not far away makes people feel very headache, the key to determining the mileage of electric vehicles is the battery, the price of the battery itself is relatively high, a group of 60 volts 20Ah conventional batteries are hundreds, if you can buy cheap, but the original battery, that is the expectation of most people, but in the same type of battery in a year, at different points in time, the price is also different, sometimes high, sometimes low, then, in the end when the price of the battery is relatively low? That is, relative to the cheapest time points of the year, if you change the battery at this time, you may be able to save one or two hundred yuan.
Batteries are more expensive when the temperature is low in the season
Usually when the weather is hot, the battery is more durable, the colder the weather, the less durable the battery, for example, in the winter around 0 degrees, the battery mileage is only about 60% of the summer, so the price of the general battery in the summer is cheaper than in the winter, because the summer battery is more durable, and the battery is relatively less; the winter is cold, the battery is not durable, and there are more people who change the battery, so the natural winter battery price is higher.
The price of batteries is higher during the peak sales season of electric vehicles
Now we mainly use lead-acid batteries, also known as boutique batteries, the conventional price is a few hundred yuan, but if it is a large-capacity battery, it may reach a thousand yuan, the price of the peak period of battery use, may be 20-25% higher than the off-season, so that when the price is low, the battery will be one or two hundred yuan cheaper. Only by grasping the right opportunities can we be more cost-effective, which is closely related to the supply and demand of the electric vehicle market. The price is higher in the peak season of the general electric vehicle market, and the demand is relatively strong at this time, and the market is even in short supply.
When the price of lead rises sharply, the price of batteries will also rise
The main raw material of the battery is lead, so when the price of lead rises, the price of the battery will also rebound and rise, but if the price increase of raw materials is not very large, the price of the general battery has little impact. At present, the two largest manufacturers of electric vehicle batteries in the mainland are Tianneng and Chaowei, which control a large share of the battery market. Of course, agents also have a certain impact on the price point.
When is the best price to change the battery?
In the year, New Year's Day to the Spring Festival around a period of time, the battery price is higher than usual, but after the middle of February, the price may be lowered, the magnitude of this downward adjustment is not so large, it is possible that the price will rebound in March, but by April, the battery price may drop to the lowest point of the year, at this time, the electric vehicle market is not hot, the weather is not hot and cold, if this time to change the battery, it is more appropriate, the price is more affordable. But after May and June, after the weather warms up, the price rebounds and rises, which is the case at the end of August and the beginning of September, the price of batteries will rise more, because of the school season, the demand is strong.
But between October and December, the market is generally not so strong, and the price of batteries has dropped again. But the decline is not so large.
Generally speaking, the price of electric vehicle batteries in April is the cheapest in April, the most expensive in early September, if you are changing a large battery of 72 volts, the price comes and goes for two or three hundred, if it is 60 volts, there is also a price difference of one or two hundred. How to judge whether your battery is to be replaced to judge whether your electric vehicle battery is to be replaced, is a multi-faceted factor, although in the different seasons, the price of changing the battery is different, but mainly depends on the degree of use of the electric vehicle battery, if the battery can still be used, does not affect the riding mileage, in time in the low season of the battery price, there is no need to replace, if you need to replace, even if the price is high, you have to change.
summary
Usually when the battery range of the electric vehicle is only one-third of the original, it is necessary to consider replacing it, after all, it will affect your riding mileage. Of course, if the winter weather is very cold, the electric vehicle battery is only half of the summer time, it is generally not recommended to replace, or can be used, but the charging frequency is a little higher. If your battery appears to be charged, the battery bulges, or there is no electricity, but the charging time is very short, and the green light is jumped, it means that the battery has aged, and at this time, no matter what the season, you have to change the battery. If your battery is not used for a long time, remember to charge once a month, if your battery riding mileage is less, not how to ride, but if it is used for two or three years, you should also consider replacing, after all, the battery itself will also age, but usually pay attention to master the correct charging method, learn to maintain the opportunity of battery, you can effectively extend the battery mileage and service life.
