Does chassis tuning affect the range of new energy vehicles?

 Does chassis tuning affect the range of new energy vehicles? Chassis tuning has a significant and multidimensional impact on the range of new energy vehicles. It directly or indirectly affects range performance by optimising vehicle dynamics and energy efficiency.

  One of the core objectives of chassis tuning is to reduce driving resistance, which is directly related to energy consumption. It can reduce the vertical movement of the vehicle body on uneven roads, thereby decreasing tyre-to-road friction losses; adjusting the stiffness of the stabiliser bar can suppress body roll, preventing additional aerodynamic drag caused by changes in vehicle posture.

  Proper chassis height settings are also critical: lowering the chassis reduces aerodynamic downforce but must balance with ground clearance; raising the chassis can handle complex road conditions but increases the drag coefficient. The intelligent chassis system dynamically adjusts chassis parameters in real-time based on road conditions and driving modes, enhancing stability while reducing energy consumption.

  The braking energy recovery system in electric vehicles relies on the coordinated operation of the chassis and electric drive system: when the driver releases the accelerator pedal or lightly applies the brakes, the motor rotates in reverse to generate electricity, converting kinetic energy into electrical energy stored in the battery. Chassis tuning optimises the response characteristics of the braking system to ensure a smooth and efficient energy recovery process.

  If braking force distribution is unreasonable, it may cause wheel lock-up or motor overload, thereby increasing energy consumption; however, precise brake pedal feel tuning and electronic stability control system coordination enable the energy recovery system to maximise energy recovery while ensuring safety, thereby increasing the energy recovery contribution rate and indirectly extending range.

  Chassis tuning also indirectly affects range by improving driving stability. The motor’s power output characteristics enable new energy vehicles to accelerate quickly, but if the chassis cannot match this burst of power, the vehicle may experience tyre slippage or body roll during rapid acceleration or high-speed cornering, leading to power waste and increased energy consumption.

  Does chassis tuning affect the range of new energy vehicles? In adaptive cruise control scenarios, the steer-by-wire chassis can collaborate with the energy management system to dynamically adjust vehicle speed and motor output power based on the distance to the preceding vehicle and road slope, avoiding energy consumption fluctuations caused by frequent acceleration and deceleration, resulting in more stable range performance.
