Question about my YANGWANG

[kimberlyanne]

I'm new here and have a question: Is it possible to manually engage the ICE and reduce the power output of the electric motors?

Welcome! Yes, that is possible. But it is not a good idea to reduce the electric motor’s power output completely.

I’ve looked into the YANGWANG system, and from what I understand, it prioritizes electric drive but uses the ICE as a range extender. Manual control over the ICE may be limited, but try exploring the vehicle's hybrid drive modes, some let you adjust power output or force charging modes.

@kimberlyanne Have you checked the owner’s manual? I am not sure if this is possible, you can also try contacting your dealership on this.

That's my problem as well, it doesn't come with the manual that's why I can't find any info.

EV conversions in manual transmission cars are possible. Often, the clutch is removed, and the car is basically stuck in one gear (usually third). Regular transmissions are needed for gas cars because their engines have a limited RPM range. Electric motors don't have that problem, so they don't really need gears.

Hey! I haven’t found a manual for it, but if you’re looking to find out how to force the internal combustion engine to start or the nominal power of the electric motors, I’d recommend reaching out to the dealership or a dedicated service center. They should have the detailed specs and info you need!
