First of all, we must clarify the concept of "new energy vehicle", which includes different models corresponding to different technologies and has different experiences. "New energy vehicles"-broadly speaking, vehicles different from traditional gasoline and diesel are all new energy vehicles, including natural gas internal combustion engine vehicles, ethanol vehicles, solar vehicles, pure electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. In a narrow sense, it mainly refers to pure electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. At present, most of the statements about new energy vehicles in the automobile industry refer to a narrow understanding.

Two types of new energy vehicles: pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles.

pure electric vehicle

Such as Tesla Model S, BYD E5, Chery Ant eQ, and cars with white and green license plates and the initials "D" after provincial and municipal codes, such as "E A D 123456" and "Xiang B D56789". "D" stands for pure electric.

Experience:

Driving habits-basically the same as ordinary automatic fuel vehicles, no clutch, no manual shift; Driving experience-because there is no engine, the noise is relatively small and the speed is fast, but the maximum speed is generally not particularly large, charging is slow in winter, and air conditioning consumes electricity quickly;

Plug-in hybrid electric Vehicle

For example, BYD Tang Hybrid Edition, Roewe i6, Boruig PHEV, Great Wall WEY P8, etc., as well as cars with white and green license plates and the first letter "F" after the provincial and municipal codes, such as "E A F 123456" and "Xiang B F56789". , "F" means non-pure electric.

Experience:

Driving habits-because there are two power systems, the engine and the driving motor, and in most cases, the engine works mainly, which is basically the same as the ordinary automatic fuel vehicle. In the process of stopping, accelerating and braking at traffic lights, due to the intervention of driving motor and the function of braking energy recovery system, the running state of vehicles will be different, but ordinary people will not feel it; Driving experience-because there are two power systems, the engine and the driving motor, so the speed is fast, the short distance can be driven by pure electric mode, and the fuel consumption is not high, and the long distance or high speed can be driven by the engine mode with good power.
