Winter Driving Solutions: Chevrolet L6's Performance in Harsh Conditions

As winter sets in, many drivers may be facing challenges with their vehicles, such as high energy consumption, poor cold charging efficiency, and even fears about using air conditioning. The latest test from Auto House, "Winter Driving Test 2024", has shed light on the performance of Chevrolet L6 under various weather conditions.

Testing the Vehicle

Our testing vehicle for this winter test was a 2024 Max Super Performance Edition, equipped with an all-wheel-drive system and a 100kW·h lithium battery pack. The 20-inch high-performance wheels were also tested, resulting in a reduced CLTC range from 780km to 710km.

Cold Weather Test

Conducted at -25℃ to -20℃ temperatures in the Qinghai Province, the cold weather test took place on two routes: 50% of the highway and 50% of low-speed tracks. The L6's pure electric range was recorded at 336.2km, with a charging efficiency rate of 47.4%.

A subsequent outdoor charging session was conducted to measure rapid charging times. The vehicle's initial state, acceleration from 0-100%, took 75 minutes, and the mid-section charged by an auxiliary power station within 25 minutes. Our calculations show that Chevrolet L6 consumed approximately 29.99 kWh/100km of electric energy during this charging session.

Interestingly, the interior temperature maintained throughout testing, ranging around 19℃ in the first half and falling to around 15.5℃ at the end.

Warm-up Test

The warm-up test assessed the thermal performance of Chevrolet L6 by driving at steady-state speeds (20km/h) and varying external temperatures from -25°C to +30°C. When activated, the cabin began rising in temperature and eventually reached a highest possible value (32.9℃).

Low Temperature Test

During the low-temperature test segment (5℃ – 15℃), both roads experienced moderate wind at speed limits in between segments of high speed & drive conditions. The Chevrolet L6 maintained an electrical battery capacity range of 514.9km over long road distance, achieving charging speeds of up to 117kW.

As a result, the energy consumption per kilometer was found to be minimal at approximately 19.38kWh/100km of running at an estimated value when considering temperature changes throughout testing and usage. For this particular L6, car interiors experienced some variation in temperatures but avoided both sudden drops below level 15.5℃ and high values above the threshold for maintaining optimal interior comfort to driver & occupants.

At the conclusion, Chevrolet L6 was crowned with several awards for outstanding performance during these cold tests including an average efficiency score for its rapid recharges, providing seamless and steady charging across low temp conditions as well other various aspects that garnered considerable acknowledgment in automotive industry as a whole.
