If you drive an electric vehicle, take special care of the battery in summer, otherwise a big accident can also happen. Often people sit making some such mistakes due to which the chance of fire in the battery increases and on seeing it, the car gets burnt. Today we will explain to people that if you use Electric Car, then what is necessary to keep in mind?
The batteries used in electric vehicles are highly sensitive. Many states of India have scorching heat, due to which special attention is required while charging the batteries of electric vehicles. The life of an electric vehicle depends on how the battery is being charged?
First mistake
According to the information given on Kia’s official site, never charge the battery 100 % full. Lithium-ion batteries do the best work when they are charged up to 30 percent -80 percent. Charging continuously until the entire capacity puts pressure on the battery.
Admittedly, the battery management system shuts down the automatic charging process when 100 % charge, but due to keeping charging on charging, the battery life is affected and the battery starts to deteriorate gradually. If the battery continues to be charged in summer, then the risk of fire may also increase.
Second mistake
Do not charge the electric vehicle in direct sunlight, the temperature increases when the battery is charged, but if you charge in direct sunlight, then the temperature can increase even more. Due to high temperature, battery life can be reduced and reduced capacity, which can lead to fire not only due to range but also due to high temperature. In summer, instead of direct sunlight, apply the car on the charge where there is a little shade.
