電瓶車我們又稱為“電動車”，它是由蓄電池（電瓶）提供電能，由電動機（直流、交流，串勵、他勵）驅動的純電動機動車輛。近年來，在我國得到了非常廣泛的普及。目前國內的電瓶車主要用于觀光(guang)載客、治安巡(xun)邏(luo)、搬(ban)(ban)運貨物之用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)，電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)動(dong)觀(guan)光(guang)車(che)的主(zhu)要用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)途(tu)是在(zai)公園、景區(qu)、休閑度假村(cun)、大學、醫(yi)院、高爾夫球場、房地產公司等(deng)場所用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)作載客，電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)動(dong)巡(xun)邏(luo)車(che)主(zhu)要用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)途(tu)是在(zai)車(che)站廣(guang)場、人(ren)流(liu)密集(ji)場所進(jin)行治安巡(xun)邏(luo)，電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)動(dong)搬(ban)(ban)運車(che)的主(zhu)要用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)途(tu)是在(zai)工廠、港口碼頭、物流(liu)庫(ku)房等(deng)。電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)動(dong)環衛(wei)車(che)主(zhu)要用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)途(tu)是用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)于清(qing)(qing)理場地、清(qing)(qing)洗路面、轉運垃圾等(deng)使(shi)用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)。電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)瓶車(che)使(shi)用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)壽(shou)命一般為8至12年(nian)，其(qi)蓄電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)池使(shi)用(yong)(yong)(yong)(yong)壽(shou)命一般為1-4年(nian)

在溫度(du)過低時就要盡(jin)量縮短電瓶(ping)車的使用(yong)時間，并及時進(jin)行充電。同(tong)時，電池(chi)最好不(bu)要長時間閑置，最好每隔一(yi)(yi)個(ge)月就給電池(chi)充一(yi)(yi)次電，保證鉛酸電池(chi)的儲電能力(li)，同(tong)時避(bi)免酸液外溢損(sun)壞電池(chi)。冬(dong)天里在電動(dong)車初起(qi)動(dong)時，一(yi)(yi)定要用(yong)腳踏助力(li)，千萬不(bu)可“零起(qi)動(dong)”，以(yi)避(bi)免大(da)量電流放電，否(fou)則對電池(chi)的損(sun)傷(shang)很大(da)。那雨雪(xue)天電瓶(ping)車能上路嗎(ma)？一(yi)(yi)般電瓶(ping)車在研制開發過程中充分考慮到防(fang)水問(wen)題，采取了相應的防水(shui)(shui)措施，基本能在(zai)雨雪天使用，但(dan)當積水(shui)(shui)淹至后輪的中(zhong)軸位(wei)置時候(hou)，將會造成整車(che)內部線路(lu)的短路(lu)，損壞電機。此外(wai)，電動車(che)最好別在(zai)戶外(wai)長期被雨淋， 這兩(liang)點一定要注意。
