I. Range (By Power Type)

1. Diesel-Powered Tracked Carriers (Mainstream Models)

There is no fixed "driving range"; it is calculated based on operating hours + fuel tank volume:

• Conventional fuel tank capacity: 40–120L

• Continuous operation under heavy load in mountainous areas: 8–12 hours

• Uniform transport under light load on flat roads: up to 12–16 hours of operation

Converted Mileage: Due to complex working conditions and low travel speed, the daily operating mileage is mostly 30–80km, making them unsuitable for long-distance transport.

2. Electric Tracked Carriers (Small / Indoor Yard Models)

• Battery capacity: 48–72V / 100–200Ah

• Continuous operation time: 3–6 hours

Converted Mileage: Primarily for short-distance yard use, with a single charge range of 10–25km. Fast charging or battery swapping is available for energy replenishment.

II. Energy Consumption Performance

Diesel Models

• Heavy load in mountainous areas / climbing muddy slopes: 3–6L per hour

• Light load on flat roads: 1.5–3L per hour

Fuel consumption fluctuates significantly with load, slope, and ground resistance. Energy consumption increases by 30%–80% on soft ground or steep slopes.

Electric Models

• Heavy-load conditions: 3–6kWh per hour

• Light load on flat roads: 1.5–3kWh per hour

Energy efficiency is stable without the condition-related fluctuation losses of internal combustion engines. Low temperatures slightly reduce the range.

III. Core Factors Affecting Range & Energy Consumption

• Load: Energy consumption under full load is 40%–100% higher than under no load, with a corresponding reduction in range.

• Terrain: Soft soil, swamps, and steep slopes create high resistance, leading to a significant rise in energy consumption.

• Track Condition: Track tension and track shoe wear directly affect rolling resistance.

• Operating Habits: Frequent starts and stops, in-place turning, and idling all increase energy consumption.

• Environment: Low temperatures reduce diesel fluidity and battery activity, degrading both range and energy consumption.

IV. Practical Selection Reference

• Long-distance / Field Use Without Recharging: Choose diesel models with large fuel tanks, and prepare an auxiliary fuel tank to extend operating hours.

• Indoor Yard / Oil-Restricted Environmentally Friendly Zones: Choose electric models, equipped with spare batteries to match shifts.

• Heavy-Load Mountainous Operations: Prepare fuel according to the upper limit of fuel consumption, and reserve a 20% range redundancy for safety.
