Many owners of electric car brakes are used every day, but basically they will not pay attention to it, it should be the most difficult part of all the parts of the electric vehicle, except for the wheels. And all the time in obscurity. Attentive friends will find that among electric two-wheelers, whether it is an electric motorcycle or an electric bicycle, the proportion of disc brakes is getting higher and higher, but the drum brakes are becoming less and less? What is the reason for this?
First, the disc brake response is more sensitive and safer
We all know that the advantage of disc brake is that it responds quickly, and the heat dissipation is good, and the braking force is very linear, but the disadvantage is that it is expensive, and the advantage of drum brake is that it is cheap, but the response is slower. Therefore, in order to improve the performance and added value of vehicles, many manufacturers have generally begun to use disc brakes instead of drum brakes.
Second, the drum brake maintenance is too troublesome
The drum brake structure is hidden inside the brake, once damaged, it is more troublesome to repair, and the disc brake only needs to be replaced with a brake pad, and the maintenance is not so troublesome.
Third, the one with disc brake is a good car, and a market consensus has been formed
Now the general consensus in the market is that a good electric car disc brake is standard, if the front and rear wheels are disc brakes, then this car looks very cheap, for many consumers who do not understand the principle, it recognizes disc brakes, cars with disc brakes are willing to buy, and those who do not have disc brakes are unwilling to buy! Therefore, when the manufacturer designs the vehicle, as long as the cost can be controlled, it will be equipped with disc brakes, so that the car will sell better!
Fourth, there is not much difference between the price of electric vehicle disc brake and drum brake
In the past, many electric vehicle factories were reluctant to use disc brakes, a big reason is that the cost of disc brakes is too high, and the difference between drum brakes is relatively large, a difference of dozens of yuan, or even hundreds of yuan. Now there are many manufacturers who produce disc brakes, and the price is cheaper, and the price of the disc brake kit is more than 100 yuan, which is a possibility for many manufacturers.
Fifth, the disc brake looks more handsome on the outside
The disc brake looks like a caliper, many also call it the caliper disc brake, the disc brake has a super high exposure in many tracks, therefore, the appearance is very handsome, and the appearance of the configuration car has been stretched. If it's with a drum brake, a small round drum looks ugly!
Summary:
Why can disc brakes gradually become the mainstream of electric two-wheeled vehicles, on the one hand, disc brakes have good performance and high appearance, on the other hand, the price has come down, and maintenance and replacement are simple. Therefore, disc brakes have begun to replace drum brakes as the mainstream of electric vehicles, guys, what do you think about this? Welcome to leave a message!
