What is the difference between the new national standard for electric vehicles and the old national standard? What is the difference between yellow and blue license plates for electric vehicles?

Electric vehicles, or electric-driven vehicles, usually use batteries as their energy source, and convert electrical energy into mechanical energy through controllers, motors and other components. Many friends do not understand the difference between the new and old national standards for electric vehicles and the difference between yellow and blue license plates for electric vehicles. Here is some information for you.

The difference between the new and old national standards for electric vehicles

The differences between the new national standard for electric vehicles and the old national standard are mainly as follows: 1. New national standard electric vehicles must have the function of riding with pedals. The old national standard does not have this requirement.

Moreover, the new national standard requires that the pedaling distance of electric bicycles must be greater than or equal to 5,000 meters within 30 minutes.

2. Electric vehicles that meet the new national standard must have 3C logos on the vehicle, motor, and charger socket. The old national standard does not have this requirement.

3. For new national standard vehicles, you can check the basic information of the vehicle by scanning the QR code on the certificate of conformity. But for old national standard vehicles, this is not possible.

4. For electric vehicles that meet the new national standard, a clear but not sharp warning sound will be emitted when the speed control handle is turned to about two-thirds of the position. The old national standard does not have this function.

5. All electric vehicles that meet the new national standards are qualified vehicles that have been tested by inspection agencies and can be checked through the official website of the company or the local electric vehicle society. Electric vehicles that meet the old national standards cannot be checked.

6. The new national standard speed is 25 kilometers per hour, and the old national standard is 20 kilometers per hour. The new national standard vehicle weight is 55 kilograms, and the old national standard vehicle weight is 40 kilograms. The rated continuous power of the motor of the new national standard electric vehicle is 400 watts, and the old national standard electric vehicle motor is 240 watts.

7. The new national standard clearly specifies electrical safety, fire protection performance, flame retardant performance, and radio interference characteristics.

Where is the electric vehicle controller located?

The installation positions of electric vehicle controllers of different types and brands are different. Generally, the controller of pedal-type electric vehicles (electric motorcycles) is installed under the seat, and the controller of simple electric vehicles (bicycles) is installed under or next to the pedals.

The electric vehicle controller is a core control device used to control the start, operation, advance and retreat, speed, stop of the electric vehicle motor and other electronic devices of the electric vehicle. It is like the brain of the electric vehicle and is an important component of the electric vehicle.

The difference between yellow and blue license plates for electric vehicles

Blue license plates are used by electric bicycles that meet the standards of the "Electric Bicycle Safety Technical Specifications", that is, national standard vehicles. There are two types of yellow license plates. One is for electric motorcycles, which are generally yellow license plates. The other is that some regions have given a temporary transition period for vehicles that exceed the standards to be uniformly equipped with yellow license plates, and the traffic management department of the public security agency will manage them in accordance with the non-motor vehicle traffic regulations.

Electric vehicles, also known as electric-driven vehicles, are divided into AC electric vehicles and DC electric vehicles. Electric vehicles are usually referred to as vehicles that use batteries as energy sources and convert electrical energy into mechanical energy through controllers, motors and other components to control the current size to change the speed of the vehicle.
