The electric vehicle includes: a handlebar, and an electric vehicle state indicator lamp, wherein the electric vehicle state indicator lamp is located on the handlebar of the electric vehicle, or on an upper portion of a handlebar stem of the electric vehicle, and the electric vehicle state indicator lamp is configured to indicate different vehicle states of the electric vehicle by using different display manners of the electric vehicle state indicator lamp. By adopting the above technical solution, the problem that information on various vehicle states of the electric vehicle only can be known via an instrument screen, causing a high cost and affect a visual effect and the like in the related art is solved. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An electric vehicle, comprising: a handlebar and an electric vehicle state indicator lamp, wherein the electric vehicle state indicator lamp is located on the handlebar of the electric vehicle or on an upper portion of a handlebar stem of the electric vehicle, and the electric vehicle state indicator lamp is configured to indicate different vehicle states of the electric vehicle by using different display manners of the electric vehicle state indicator lamp, wherein the electric vehicle further comprises: a processing module; the processing module is respectively connected to the electric vehicle state indicator lamp and a sound production apparatus; and the processing module is configured to control, after the determination of a vehicle state of the electric vehicle, at least one of the following state information of the electric vehicle: a display manner of the electric vehicle state indicator lamp of the electric vehicle, and a prompt tone made by the electric vehicle, wherein the processing module is further configured to receive, when the vehicle state indicates that the electric vehicle is in a faulty state and the mobile terminal is connected to the electric vehicle via the Bluetooth, receive a fault type of the electric vehicle and a solution corresponding to the fault type which are sent after the mobile terminal tests the electric vehicle. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 1, wherein when the electric vehicle state indicator lamp is located on the handlebar of the electric vehicle, a location of the electric vehicle state indicator lamp on the handlebar of the electric vehicle at least comprises one of the followings: an inside of a handle of the electric vehicle; an outside of the handle of the electric vehicle; and a position between the inside of the handle and an instrument, wherein the instrument is located on a middle position of the handlebar of the electric vehicle. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 1, wherein one or more electric vehicle state indicator lamps are provided. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 1, wherein the electric vehicle state indicator lamp comprises: an annular electric vehicle state indicator lamp, a semi-annular electric vehicle state indicator lamp, a dot array electric vehicle state indicator lamp and an elongated electric vehicle state indicator lamp. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 1, wherein the different display manners at least comprise one of the followings: different display colors of the electric vehicle state indicator lamp; different numbers of powered-on electric vehicle state indicator lamps when a plurality of electric vehicle state indicator lamps are provided; and different display shapes of the electric vehicle state indicator lamp. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 1, wherein the different vehicle states at least comprise one of the followings: a ridden state of the electric vehicle, a stand-by state of the electric vehicle, a faulty state of the electric vehicle, a Bluetooth connection state of the electric vehicle and a charging state of the electric vehicle. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 1, wherein the electric vehicle further comprises: a sound production apparatus, and the sound production apparatus is configured to make different types of prompt tones for the different vehicle states. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 1, wherein the processing module is further configured to receive instruction information sent by a mobile terminal, wherein the instruction information is generated based on an operation performed on a client of the mobile terminal, the instruction information is used for indicating a corresponding relationship between vehicle states and state information, different state information corresponds to different vehicle states, and the mobile terminal is connected to the electric vehicle via Bluetooth. ### Claim 9 (depends on 2) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 2, wherein one or more electric vehicle state indicator lamps are provided. ### Claim 10 (depends on 2) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 2, wherein the electric vehicle state indicator lamp comprises: an annular electric vehicle state indicator lamp, a semi-annular electric vehicle state indicator lamp, a dot array electric vehicle state indicator lamp and an elongated electric vehicle state indicator lamp. ### Claim 11 (depends on 2) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 2, wherein the different display manners at least comprise one of the followings: different display colors of the electric vehicle state indicator lamp; different numbers of powered-on electric vehicle state indicator lamps when a plurality of electric vehicle state indicator lamps are provided; and different display shapes of the electric vehicle state indicator lamp. ### Claim 12 (depends on 2) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 2, wherein the different vehicle states at least comprise one of the followings: a ridden state of the electric vehicle, a stand-by state of the electric vehicle, a faulty state of the electric vehicle, a Bluetooth connection state of the electric vehicle and a charging state of the electric vehicle. ### Claim 13 (depends on 2) The electric vehicle as claimed in claim 2, wherein the electric vehicle further comprises: a sound production apparatus, and the sound production apparatus is configured to make different types of prompt tones for the different vehicle states.
