Long-term Episode 85 · Question 1

Does frequent acceleration and deceleration during daily driving harm the battery/motor?

Official answer

The battery and motor have corresponding protection strategies. Even under extreme conditions involving frequent acceleration and deceleration, there is basically no damage to the battery or motor, although aggressive driving leads to higher energy consumption. Gentle acceleration and deceleration in daily driving are insufficient to cause any harm to the battery or motor, so please rest assured.

Furthermore, during the R&D verification phase, the Xiaomi SU7 underwent verification for many abuse scenarios far exceeding the intensity of daily driving. Additionally, both the battery and motor of the Xiaomi SU7 are provided with an 8-year or 160,000 km warranty (whichever comes first), so please rest assured.

However, for driving safety, we remind everyone not to drive aggressively on public roads.
