The three-electric system of electric vehicles is the core of electric vehicles, mainly including batteries, motors, and controllers. In the three-electric system, batteries are the most easily damaged “wearing parts”, because electric vehicles used to mainly use lead-acid batteries, which have a relatively short service life. An electric vehicle often needs to replace batteries 2 to 3 times. The ranking of battery service life is here! Lead-acid batteries are ranked fourth, and the first one has a service life of 10 years.

At present, there are four main types of batteries used in electric vehicles, namely lead-acid batteries, graphene batteries, lithium batteries and sodium batteries. Let’s take a look at how long the service life of these four batteries is and which battery is the most durable.

No. 4: Lead-acid battery

Although lead-acid battery has the longest history among these four batteries, which is nearly 200 years old, and is used in many scenarios, its service life ranks the lowest, ranking fourth.

Because the charge and discharge cycle of lead-acid battery is only 300~500 times, according to the frequency of charging once every 2~3 days, the normal service life of lead-acid battery is about 2~3 years, and the service life of an electric car is 5~7 years, so if lead-acid battery is used, it may need to be replaced 3 times.

No. 3: Graphene battery

Strictly speaking, graphene batteries are still lead-acid batteries, but their service life is far longer than that of lead-acid batteries. They are more durable and have a longer service life than lead-acid batteries.

The third-generation graphene battery released by Yadi has reached 1,000 charge and discharge cycles. The service life of ordinary graphene batteries is also 500 to 600 times, so the service life of graphene batteries is generally 3 to 5 years.

No. 2: Lithium battery

Although lithium battery is not very safe and stable, and the price is also high, but from the perspective of service life, lithium battery performance is still very strong, because its charge and discharge cycle can reach 1500 times, and it can be used for 7 to 10 years normally.

No. 1: Sodium battery

Sodium battery is a new product of electric vehicle battery. Although it has just entered the field of two-wheeled electric vehicles, it has attracted the attention of many car owners due to its excellent performance.

Other advantages are not repeated here. Just looking at the charge and discharge cycle of sodium battery, it can also reach 1500 times. Although it has the same charge and discharge cycle as lithium battery, sodium battery has a longer service life.

Because sodium battery can be discharged to 0 volts, that is to say, after sodium battery is fully charged, it can release more electricity, which reduces the number of charge and discharge, thereby extending the service life of sodium battery. At present, the warranty period of sodium battery is 6 years, and the service life can exceed 10 years.

Summary:

By analyzing the four commonly used batteries, we can know that sodium batteries have the longest service life, ranking first and can be used for more than 10 years, and lead-acid batteries have the shortest service life, ranking fourth, and can only be used for 2 to 3 years. The service life ranking is: sodium battery> lithium battery> graphene battery> lead-acid battery. However, when replacing high-performance batteries, the price will be relatively higher. At present, the price of the four batteries is ranked from high to low as lithium battery> sodium battery> graphene battery> lead-acid battery.
