For many people, electric cargo bikes are no longer strange, and even become an important daily means of transportation for most people. However, many people just know that electric cargo bikes are a means of transportation, and they don’t know how to choose the right one for themselves. For example, when buying a new cargo bike, some people will ask, which electric bikes can run farther and have more power? Which configuration should be selected for battery and motor? As a person in the electric vehicle industry, I know a little about it, just to popularize some common sense for those who don’t know about electric cargo bike.
Which motor is more powerful for electric cargo bikes?
Nowadays, most electric cargo bikes use wheel motor, and the wheel hub will also be marked with motor parameters, usually 10 inch or 12 inch. So, what is the difference between the two motors? Which electric vehicle do you want to run faster? And which motor is more practical? Let’s talk about it in detail.
See the technician explain:
10 inch and 12 inch refer to the diameter of the motor. The 12 inch motor is a circle larger than the 10 inch motor. Generally speaking, most household electric cargo bikes use a 10 inch motor, which is about 1200W, and performs well on the flat road. The maximum speed can reach 40-50km/h, and it can also provide good power, which is suitable for daily using.
The 12 inch motor is usually used in high-speed electric motorcycle. Its power is about 1800W. Its maximum speed can reach 60-70km/h. It can climb 10-20 ° steep slopes when carrying people. It is suitable for mountain roads and hilly areas.
Which battery can be selected for electric cargo bikes to have a longer life?
The battery determines the endurance of electric cargo bikes, but now there are many types of batteries, and there are many specifications to choose from. What battery can electric cargo bike use to last longer? Now listen to my analysis.
1. Battery type:
In order to have a long battery life, the most basic thing is to choose a good battery. At present, electric vehicles mainly use lead-acid batteries and lithium batteries. If you want a long life, you’d better not choose ordinary lead-acid batteries. You can choose some upgrades battery, such as the most common graphene batteries, which have a strong life span. The battery life of lithium battery is naturally better than that of lead acid battery, but lithium iron phosphate is the best choice, which is relatively safe.
2. Battery specification:
After the battery type is selected, the specific specifications of the battery should be selected. In fact, the battery life is related to the capacity. For example, an electric bicycle with a 48V12AH battery has a life span of one time charge about 30 kilometers. If a 48V20AH battery is used, the life span of one charge may exceed 50 kilometers. For electric motorcycle, it is better to choose 72V32AH or above because of the high speed. To sum up, the larger the capacity, the farther the endurance.
Summary
For many people, electric cargo bikes have become an indispensable part of their lives. So if anyone wants to change a new cargo bike but doesn’t know how to do it, you can refer to the motor and battery configuration I mentioned above, and choose according to their own needs.
