The implementation of the new national standard for electric bicycles has been nearly three years
On the speed, quality, voltage and other aspects of the vehicle
All are clearly stipulated
On the eve of "3.15", the reporter visited the market and found that
Although the manufacturer produces electric bicycles
In line with the new national standard
But the phenomenon of illegal modifications still exists
It has brought no small hidden dangers to road traffic safety
Adjust the speed of the car to increase the battery
Old standard cars are sold as used cars
On March 3, the reporter visited more than 10 brand electric bicycle stores near Jiqingmen Avenue, Jiqing Road and Xishan Bridge in Nanjing. According to the requirements of the new national standard, the maximum speed of electric bicycles must not exceed 25 kilometers per hour.
For a "Yadi" electric vehicle worth more than 3,000 yuan, the sales staff said that the maximum speed set by the vehicle is 25 kilometers per hour, and if the speed is slow, they also have a way to make the car run faster.
"Yadi" electric vehicle store sales staff: after the adjustment, the maximum speed can reach 40 kilometers per hour.
After adjusting the speed, will the vehicle be seized? "Yadi" sales staff said that they do a relatively hidden speed regulation, even if the speed of the car reaches 40 kilometers per hour, the dashboard only shows the speed of 25 kilometers per hour, so from the outside, it can not be found at all.
"Yadi" electric vehicle store sales staff: when the traffic police check, the dashboard shows 25 km / h, the safety factor is certainly not as safe as 25 yards km / h, it must be slower and safer.
An electric bike owner said that his car has been adjusted overspeed, and indeed the dashboard only shows a maximum speed of 25 kilometers per hour.
In addition to the "Yadi" electric vehicle, the sales staff of the "Green Source" and "Knife" brands of electric vehicles have said that they can help customers increase the speed for free.
"Green source" electric vehicle sales staff: the speed can be adjusted, each car is different, like this at least thirty km / h, faster can reach 40 km / h, speed regulation does not cost money.
"Knife" electric vehicle sales staff: more than 30 km / h.
Reporter: After buying it, you can adjust it, right?
"Knife" electric vehicle salesman: I don't have to adjust, you can just 35 km / h.
Reporter: So how could it be?
"Knife" electric vehicle salesman: you don't have to care so much, know 35 km / h on the line, know that you can get on the green card, it's as simple as that.
Electric vehicles have increased speed, and if you want to get a greater range, you must increase the battery voltage. According to the requirements of the new national standard, the battery voltage of electric bicycles must not exceed 48 volts, but the sales staff of knife and tailing electric vehicles on Shangyuan Avenue in Jiangning District, Nanjing City, said that as long as the reporter is willing to spend money, another set of batteries can be added to make the voltage of the car 60 volts or 72 volts.
"Knife" electric vehicle salesman: you want us to change it for you, the battery is also under the cushion, you can add a section, install a 72-volt battery for 3599 yuan, 48 volts is cheaper than two hundred yuan.
"Tailing" electric vehicle sales staff: can be installed, the original is 48 volts, 4 batteries, and then install a 60 volts, more than 48 volts can run 10 kilometers more.
Salespeople said that in order to meet the needs of some customers and sell electric vehicles, they sometimes secretly help modify batteries. Once this behavior is discovered by the market supervision department, the merchant will be punished.
"Knife" electric vehicle sales personnel: must meet the new national standard standards, you do not meet the immediate check you, check you will be fined money, a car fine tens of thousands of yuan can not stand.
The reporter noted that some electric vehicles need to re-weld and punch holes when installing batteries, and this Maverick electric vehicle has left enough space for the installation of batteries when it is produced.
"Maverick" electric vehicle sales staff: This is not a battery compartment, this position also has a battery compartment, can be connected in series, tandem on two batteries, up to three groups, battery capacity increased, endurance enhanced.
According to the regulations, after the implementation of the new national standard, the old national standard electric vehicles cannot be sold and licensed. During the investigation, the reporter found that there are still merchants secretly selling.
"Knife" electric vehicle sales staff: this kind of car is normal not allowed to sell, can be equipped with a 72 volt 45 ampere battery, the speed is not slow, this car has strength, 50 km / h almost.
Merchants said that these old standard cars are produced before the new national standard, due to the fast speed, long endurance, deeply welcomed by the takeaway express and other industry personnel, they rushed to the new national standard before the implementation of the license plate, if you want to buy it.
"Xianglong" electric vehicle salesman: Don't want you to get on the license, you buy me and I will give it to you, I count the second-hand car transaction.
There are hidden dangers in illegally modified cars
Merchants will be penalized
The violation of laws and regulations by electric vehicle merchants also brings no small hidden dangers to road traffic safety. When the reporter followed the Nanjing traffic police department on the road to inspect, he found a number of illegally modified electric bicycles.
For example, after the car is equipped with batteries, the line is still exposed, and after the car regulates the speed, the speed can reach 41 kilometers per hour.
Electric vehicle owners: The merchant helped me adjust, and this was the way I bought the battery car.
Nanjing Traffic Management Bureau traffic police eighth brigade police officer Wang Jinghan: Generally speaking, nine of the ten accidents are fast, most of the accidents, one is the speed of the electric vehicle is too fast, like we dealt with an accident in the early stage, when the morning rush hour, the parties in the driving due to the speed of the car is too fast, the front guardrail did not avoid in time, resulting in people directly crashing into it.
According to the relevant provisions of the Regulations on the Administration of Electric Bicycles in Jiangsu Province, if a merchant has the business behavior of assembling, modifying or installing electric bicycles, the market supervision and management department will impose a fine of 5,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan. If a citizen drives an electric bicycle that exceeds the service life or is assembled, modified, or installed on the road, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the vehicle and impose a fine of 200 yuan; if it is installed or modified, it shall be ordered to restore the original state.
Today's sharp comment: the rectification of illegal modification of electric bicycles requires "five-finger synthetic fist"
Once the electric bicycle is modified, the performance of the vehicle has changed, so on the road, the safety hazards are self-evident. Rectify the illegal modification of electric vehicles, in addition to the traffic police department on the road inspection, it is more important to start from the source: manufacturers should produce products that meet the standards in accordance with laws and regulations, and cannot leave space for illegal modification; dealers must operate in accordance with the law and cannot provide modification services. Correspondingly, the market supervision department should strengthen law enforcement inspections and seriously deal with problem businesses. We also remind consumers that in order to travel safely, we must consciously resist the illegal assembly, modification and installation of electric bicycles, and if these behaviors are found, they should complain and report to the local market supervision department.
