As the world shifts towards sustainable transportation, e-rickshaws have emerged as a game-changer in urban mobility. At Sodyco, we’re proud to be at the forefront of this revolution, manufacturing top-quality e-rickshaws and spare parts. However, we’ve noticed that there are still some misconceptions floating around about e-rickshaw mileage. Today, we’re here to set the record straight and debunk these myths once and for all.
Let’s get started with E-Rickshaw Mileage Myths Debunked!
Myth #1: E-rickshaws can’t go the distance

One of the most persistent myths is that e-rickshaws can’t cover long distances. This couldn’t be further from the truth! Modern e-rickshaws, like those manufactured by Sodyco, are equipped with high-capacity batteries that can easily cover 80-100 kilometers on a single charge. That’s more than enough for a full day of city commuting!
Myth #2: Mileage decreases rapidly over time

Some people believe that e-rickshaw batteries lose their efficiency quickly, leading to decreased mileage. While it’s true that all batteries degrade over time, the rate is much slower than you might think. With proper care and maintenance, Sodyco’s e-rickshaw batteries can maintain over 80% of their original capacity even after years of use.
Myth #3: E-rickshaws are slower than traditional auto-rickshaws

Speed demons, rejoice! E-rickshaws can reach speeds of up to 25-30 km/h, which is comparable to traditional auto-rickshaws. In fact, in congested urban areas, e-rickshaws often outperform their gas-guzzling counterparts due to their nimble nature and quick acceleration.
Myth #4: Charging takes too long and affects daily earnings

While it’s true that e-rickshaws need to be charged, the process is much quicker and more convenient than you might think. With Sodyco’s fast-charging technology, most e-rickshaws can be fully charged in just 6-8 hours. This means you can easily charge overnight and be ready for a full day of work without any interruptions to your earnings.
Myth #5: E-rickshaws are expensive to maintain
Many people assume that the advanced technology in e-rickshaws makes them costly to maintain. In reality, e-rickshaws have fewer moving parts than traditional auto-rickshaws, which means less wear and tear and lower maintenance costs. At Sodyco, we’ve designed our e-rickshaws and spare parts with durability and easy maintenance in mind, saving you money in the long run.
Myth #6: Mileage is severely affected by passenger load

While it’s true that carrying more passengers can impact mileage, the effect is minimal compared to traditional vehicles. E-rickshaws are designed to efficiently handle varying loads, and Sodyco’s models are optimized to maintain consistent performance even when fully loaded.
Myth #7: E-rickshaws perform poorly in extreme weather
Some worry that battery performance suffers in very hot or cold conditions. While extreme temperatures can have a slight impact on battery efficiency, modern e-rickshaws are built to withstand diverse weather conditions. Sodyco’s e-rickshaws are equipped with temperature management systems that help maintain optimal battery performance in various climates.
Parting Words
As we’ve seen, many of the myths surrounding e-rickshaw mileage are just that – myths. The reality is that e-rickshaws offer impressive range, consistent performance, and low maintenance costs. At Sodyco, we’re committed to pushing the boundaries of e-rickshaw technology, ensuring that our vehicles continue to exceed expectations and drive the future of sustainable urban transportation.
So, the next time you hear someone repeating these mileage myths, you’ll be armed with the facts to set the record straight. Join us in embracing the e-rickshaw revolution – it’s not just the future of transportation, it’s the present!
