Misconceptions About Electric Vehicles

Why The Automotive Future Is Electric

Electric bikes run on electricity that is stored in the batteries which makes them quieter and more eco-friendly compared to their ICE (internal combustion engine counterparts. Here are some of its key features

Low Running Cost

Electric motorcycles cost more than regular motorcycles, however, they have the added advantage of low running and maintenance cost. Also, factors like longer battery life and green tax credits make them cost-effective.

Smooth & Silent Ride

Electric motorcycles provide the rider a smooth and silent driving experience, thus making them very easy and fun to ride. All thanks to the e-motor with fewer moving parts compared to the conventional motorcycles. Also, e-motorcycles do not have any gears which the rider has to worry about. They have a lower center of gravity which ensures better handling, responsiveness, and comfort.

Modern-Day Tech

When it comes to the latest tech and features, the electric motorcycle market adopts them enthusiastically with enthusiasm. So, riders can find the latest technological trends like seamless connectivity, AI-powered health checks, powerful batteries, smart grids, and more, on their ride.

Good For The Environment

By choosing to purchase an electric motorcycle, the buyers do their part to save and be gentle on the planet earth. Unlike conventional motorcycles, electric units run on 100% renewable energy and emit no exhaust fumes and greenhouse gasses.

Convenience Of Charging

With no need for fueling, electric motorcycles are super easy on the pocket. The owner just needs to plug the unit to the power socket and in just a few hours it would be good to go. While it might take longer compared to gas refueling, with some basic pre-planning one will be able to mitigate the impact.

Low Maintenance Cost

Electric motorcycles might be an expensive purchase, however, their overall cost of maintenance and service is low compared to its ICE counterpart. Why? Electric motorcycles feature fewer components, thus no need for regular oiling of parts, also the chances of wear and tear is less.

Little Heavy On Pocket

Electric motorcycles are a little heavy on the pocket compared to fuel-run counterparts. However, with rising market demand their price will go down eventually.

EV Charging Infrastructure

There has been an increased focus by the government on enabling working charging stations throughout the country. This will have the dual benefit of increased access to charging infrastructure and enabling daytime charging.

  • Low Cost Of Ownership And Easy Maintenance

    With limited moving parts electric motorcycles do not require much maintenance, also not many components require replacement when used over a period of time.

  • Applauding Performance

    Electric motors react much quicker compared to mechanical engines, thus offering more agility and torque. Also, electric motorcycles are quieter than ICE-powered units which calls for a more relaxed ride and less noise pollution.

  • Government Subsidies

    Lots of states encourage riders to go green by offering all kinds of rebates and tax incentives.

    Charging an electric motorcycle takes more time then refueling an ICE vehicle. While it takes just 5 minutes to re-fuel a conventional bike, even with the fastest charging station a minimum 30 minutes time is required to charge an e-bike.

  • Battery Replacement Expense

    An electric motorcycle’s battery pack would not require more than one replacement in the vehicle's lifetime; however, if and when the need arises it will be quite an expensive affair.

How To Maintain Your EV’s Battery

  • Avoid Exposure To Extreme Temperature

    Lithium-ion batteries are super sensitive to Extreme Temperatures (on either spectrum) as it can have a significant impact on the e-bike’s battery performance and life. In hotter regions, owners must try to park the vehicle in shade.

  • Do Not Fully Charge The Batteries At All Times

    Conventional thinking tells you to keep your electric motorcycle’s battery at 100%. Avoid this practice unless you need to travel far.

  • Avoid Fast Chargers Unless Necessary

    While fast charging offers great convenience when the battery is about to die, doing it frequently will wreak havoc on your batteries.

  • Maintain Optimal Battery State During Ideal State

    It is not recommended to leave the EVs battery at 0 or 100 percent charge for a long period of time as it is more detrimental to the battery than regular partial discharge. In case you are planning to not use the vehicle for long, it is recommended to charge the battery to 80% and then put it into storage.

  • Do Not Drain The Battery To 0%

    Draining your EVs battery to zero will drastically reduce the lithium ion battery’s life. It is recommended to never let the battery’s SOC fall down to 20% to enhance the e-bike’s battery life.
