Charging an electric car in the rain is not dangerous

“Can the car charge when it rains?” is a question that many people still ask about the electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle segment. Companies say that charging when it rains is safe for people and vehicles, because electric vehicles and charging stations are thoroughly tested for safety under harsh conditions before they can be sold on the market. Water and electricity are a dangerous combination that can cause fatal accidents. Therefore, the vehicle’s battery and charging system are designed to be as watertight as possible, and integrate many additional technologies to protect against discharge, short circuit, etc. Each step of the charging process is carefully calculated to To protect the driver, electronic components must comply with strict rules set by safety organizations around the world, including the Ingress Protection (IP) standard, which indicates the level of dust/water resistance set. by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The IP standard represents the level of dust and water resistance of electronic components, and is widely used around the world. According to IEC 60529 standards, dust resistance is expressed through the first number, 1-6, water resistance is the next number from 1-8, the higher the number means the more resistant to dust/water factors. big. …

Is It Harmful To Leave Your EV Plugged in All the Time?

Leaving an electric vehicle (EV) plugged in all the time is generally not harmful to the battery, but following the manufacturer’s guidelines for charging and storage can help maximize the battery’s lifespan. Most modern EVs have sophisticated battery management systems (BMS) that ensure that the battery is charged optimally and help avoid overcharging or undercharging. However, there are some factors that can affect the battery’s lifespan if the EV is left plugged in all the time. For example, exposing the battery to extreme temperatures (both hot and cold) for extended periods can degrade the battery’s health over time. Similarly, exposing the battery to high levels of charge (eg charging to 100% capacity frequently) can also impact its overall lifespan. To minimize impact, follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for charging and storage. Some manufacturers suggest keeping the battery between 20–80% capacity to optimize its lifespan. Additionally, if the EV is going to be stored for an extended period (ie several weeks),leave the battery level at ~50%. How Do EVs Prevent Their Batteries from Being Overcharged? A BMS is a crucial component in an EV that manages the battery pack’s performance, safety and health. It’s responsible for monitoring and controlling various aspects of…

What You Need To Know About Driver Assistance Technologies

Driver assistance technologies can help you focus on the road and reduce your chances of a crash. In 2020, 38,824 Americans died in motor vehicle crashes—many of these crashes were tied to human error. Learn more about driver assistance technologies, how they can help you, and what you should know about these technologies when buying your next vehicle. Lane Departure Warning (LDW) This feature helps you stay in your lane and can be used in combination with adaptive cruise control. It uses laser technology to monitor whether you are staying within the lane, warning you when you drift out of it. The LDW system is often combined with collision warning and blind spot detection systems, but this isn’t always the case — some cars have LDW but no other driver assistance features! After just three years in operation, VinFast has managed to bring to market a midsize SUV/C-segment with basic self-driving and steering assistance features such as lane departure warning, blind spot warning, and rear cross traffic alert. These cutting-edge technologies help reduce collisions common in urban traffic, particularly in densely populated cities. Blind Spot Detection (BSD) Blind Spot Detection (BSD) is a feature that alerts the driver if there…
