Electric Cars performance

186 views

Electric cars are by and large ridiculously fast with pretty poor range, especially the news trucks if they are going truck like things such as towing and hauling. Wouldn’t making them a bit slower increase range and/or reduce battery size and charging time/cost?

It doesn’t work that way.

The transmission uses whatever mechanical advantage the truck needs for the balance of torque or horsepower depending on the situation.

It basically does both things. Between what you asked if it could do and what it does, it can do both depending on what’s needed.

The only difference is how heavy the battery is for any specific range. More range means heavier batteries.
