What are electric car owners most afraid of?
Needless to say, it must be endurance.
The problem of endurance virtual standards, almost from the birth of electric vehicles have been a problem, now for the electric vehicle endurance shrinkage, as long as it is not too serious, almost everyone turned a blind eye, has become a common thing, which day you tell me which electric vehicle endurance does not shrink I feel shocked.
But recently, a owner of GAC Aean reflected to the media that he bought an AION S EVO 630 model at the end of 19 years, and it is still a high endurance version, the car's endurance official logo is 630km, but this is not the case, the owner was mentally prepared for the endurance of the electric vehicle before buying the car, but the car in the process of use, even 350km endurance is difficult to guarantee, it is really disappointing to the owner.
And the owner also revealed that he later learned that even if the endurance of GAC AION S is not discounted, this model cannot run 630km, why? That's because when this model was launched, gahic ace's advertised cruising range was based on the 60km/h constant-speed test conditions, and after a number of resistances to constant-speed testing, GAC Ae-ang also changed to the industry's general NEDC working conditions standard, and the mileage advertised by the AION S 630 series model also became 510k.
More than 500 kilometers is more than 500 kilometers, which is not unacceptable, but the owner said that after running 100km when the car is fully charged, it will show that the endurance is less than 200km, and this is still a car that has only started for more than two years, and more than one owner has this situation, and many of the serious decline in endurance have appeared after the car has been upgraded by OTA.
After the owner of the car said that after the "upgrade", their battery could not be fully filled, the endurance was seriously declining, and it was suspected that the power was locked by the manufacturer, after all, GAC Aean was not the first time to do such a thing. In 2021, the Central Broadcasting Network has reported that the problem of locking the power after the upgrade of GAC AIONS, and it occurred without the knowledge of consumers, some experts believe that in fact, GAC AIONS's battery is generally defective, in order to cover up this defect, dealers will borrow the name of OTA upgrade to lock the power of the model, I don't know if this time is repeating the same mistakes.
GAC Aean's endurance shrinkage is not only for one model, its other models also have a serious problem, there have been media on the market for some new energy models for winter endurance test, the results found that GAC Aian's two models in the bottom, 600km of the nominal mileage is actually only 230km, to be honest, this is not called shrinkage, called waist chop, directly less than half.
In gac aeon's complaints, the problem of light locking electricity accounts for most of the country, reaching 80% of the total complaints, and the staff of GAC Ae'an even said that the power-locking behavior is to extend the life of the battery and ensure the safety of the vehicle. Still lying for a long time, even I believed it.
The previous WM automobile is also deeply involved in the lock electric door incident, this practice will only consume the user's sense of trust in the manufacturer, again and again, not only damage the interests of consumers, but also in the consumption of their own positive image in the market, damage people and not benefit themselves, I hope that this phenomenon can occur less in the future.
