What is the difference between 48V and 60V lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles?

What is the difference between 60V and 48V lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles?

1. Price difference: The price of a 48V electric vehicle will be lower, while the price of a 60V electric vehicle will be higher. For the general public, both can meet the needs of commuting.

2. Driving speed and load capacity are different: The speed of a 60 volt electric vehicle is generally higher than that of a 48 volt electric vehicle, and its load capacity naturally varies. If you frequently climb hills, a 60 volt electric vehicle will definitely be better.

3. Although both of these cars can meet people's commuting needs, the motor power is different. A 48V motor has lower power than a 60V motor, so the driving power and range of these two cars are completely different.

4. Battery quantity and vehicle weight: In terms of the overall number of lithium batteries, 48V electric vehicles usually have 4 batteries connected in series, while 60V electric vehicles usually have 5 batteries connected in series. Therefore, the overall weight and price of 60V electric vehicles are higher than that of 48V electric vehicles. At the same time, because most of the current electric vehicle batteries are lead-acid batteries, 60V electric vehicles are slightly heavier than 48V electric vehicles in terms of vehicle weight, and overall stability is relatively good.
