Pros And Cons Of Electric Cars

Electric cars vary from the average car you see on a day-to-day basis, this specific type of car is starting to make more appearances in the world due to their efficiency to the atmosphere. What makes an electric car stand out is that they are propelled and powered by an electric motor. The way this specific type of car functions is that it uses electrical energy that is stored in rechargeable batteries either under the hood or in the truck. What makes electric cars unique is the level of silent while being driven on the road rather than your standard gasoline engines. Of course, with everything, there will be a downside to it. Recharging an electric car can take a long time, sometimes up to hours which is an enormous difference than filling

The world produces around 85 million barrels of oil each day. About a quarter of that percentage goes to the United States of America, which is used up mostly by means of transportations. Most people get around from place to place using a car, a car that is powered by fuel. Everywhere one goes driving, they will eventually run into a gas station but not a charging station for electric cars. Regular cars, burn off fuel that produce emissions (carbon, nitrogen, sulfur) that pollute and harm the environment. Although, there are some positives about switching there are also some problems that could appear but could be fixed. Electric cars have the potential to reduce the amount of pollution in the environment, boost the national economy and help

The transportation industry has continued to grow from the first production of the car in the 1990s by Karl Benz. Since this time there have been an outstanding number of model cars, airplanes, buses, motorcycles and scooters, and many other transportation vehicles that uses the standard type of fuel, gasoline. Society as a whole has yet to realize the harmful effects gas powered vehicles have on our ecosystem. Unfortunately, due to lack of this information, the overwhelming price difference between the types of transportation, and convenience, this ever-growing problem my never change until it's too late.

Gas powered cars are one of the major causes of global warming , and air pollution. Gas powered cars are able to create a lot of carbon dioxide that harm the environment. These cars can also spill certain fluids that can harm the environment. Some of these fluids are motor-oil, gasoline and brake fluid. These fluids can harm humans as well as animals, and can pollute our water systems. Electric cars on the other hand are better for the environment. They use half the energy of a gas powered car, so they don’t cause as much pollution in the air. They also use cleaner energy; electricity, which doesn’t harm the environment as much as

Everyone around the country needs to work to lower emissions into the air to reduce the greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere. I am not a fan of electric vehicles but, they are better for the environment than gas or diesel vehicles. They release less gases into the air and can be recharged almost anywhere with solar panel charger adapters. Some companies like, Tesla and VIA (General Motors Company) have made a dream for a person to own and be able to afford one.

Abstract—In this modern era, many advancements in technology have been witnessed. Research and data collected around the world have allowed for these advancements to take place. This has allowed for a better understanding of the footprint humans leave on the environment. As a result, this has allowed for the planet to become eco-friendlier. An eco-friendly advancement in the 21st century is the electric vehicle. There are a plethora of benefits using electric vehicles. Some advantages include no emissions, cost-effective, and low maintenance.

1. No emissions. One of the big reasons EVs are so attractive to some is that they emit absolutely no emissions. If you are worried about your direct impact on the environment, an electric vehicle will allay those concerns.

Due to advancement in technology, there has been an increase in emission of pollutants from the vehicles. Electric cars do not produce pollutants which are very important for the cities to stay green and pollution free as the air quality has deteriorated a lot.

Electric cars are becoming more and more a part of the world today. Society can see them everywhere, from the streets to TV. Car companies like Nissan and Chevy have their own line up of electric cars that perform well. Now one of the most popular car companies, Tesla, can make the Lamborghini of electric cars. To help lower emission levels and jumpstart the industry, the federal government offers a $7,500 tax credit for buyers of pure electric vehicles (Schaal, 2015). Which brings up some common questions; are all these changes in the car industry a good change from the traditional gas engine and are electric cars truly better than Gas powered vehicles making gas powered vehicles slowly become obsolete. Electric cars barely have any maintenance needed compared to gas powered vehicles. Emissions

Electric vehicles (EV’s) are better because they do not run on fossil fuels, and cause very little pollution, but those are not the only things that make EV’s better than gasoline run vehicles. By purchasing an electric car consumers can save hundreds of dollars each year throughout the long-lasting lifetime of an electric vehicle while helping the environment. Electric vehicles are more efficient than gas run vehicles, safer for the environment, and EV’s cost less than other fuel powered vehicles.

Imagine, after coming home from work, you just plug in your car battery to an outlet in your garage, and then the next morning, your car is full of energy. You would not be late because you never have to stop by any gas station to fill up the gas tank, and you could save money for gas each week. You would not see smoke from the tailpipe and your car is quieter. That image sounds great, and those are benefits an electric car could bring to us. Those are also the reasons some people support electric and hybrid vehicle. The Obama administration has set a national goal of one million electric cars on American roads by 2015 and this goal was supported with $5 billion in taxpayer dollars. As taxpayers, we have plenty of reasons to be concerned

The cost of preserving electric cars is lower than the cost of preserving cars fueled by conventional gasoline. The price of fuel varies a lot depending on the military and political situation in countries that provide oil. Even if we do not consider it, one month of driving a gasoline fueled car would cost you about $3,500. Given that you drive about 15,000 miles per year, and buy gasoline at $3.50 per gallon. Mean while, driving an electric car would cost you only $39 per month. Not even counting fuel costs, conventional vehicles call for transmission repairs, regular technical inspections, and so on (EVgo). There for people who want to save money on gas and maintenance electric cars is the way to go.

Electric cars are becoming very popular in today’s world and are becoming more main stream. One reason for this is the need for automobiles that have a lower or a zero carbon footprint. For the majority of the history of the automobile, the propulsion system was a gas or a diesel engine that would run off of fossil fuels. The burning of fossil fuels is very hazardous to our world and also creates much toxic pollution. However, electric cars run off of electricity, which is a very clean and pollution free resource, depending on how the electricity was produced of course. In this paper we are going to examine the history of electric cars, look into modern electric car technology, and peer into the future of electric car technology to see if EVs might be the answer to dramatically reducing our global pollution.

 There is a serious problem facing the world right now.  It is air pollution.  The number one contributor to this epidemic is automobile emissions.  We have all heard of the issues that are involved with air pollution including the depletion of the o-zone layer, the green house effect, and acid rain.  The problem has been scoped from every imaginable angle, and now it is time to solve the problem.  I propose that each of the ‘Big Three’ (Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler) car manufacturers be required to have 10% of their product line as EV’s By the year 2010.  I propose this because it will be the start of cleaner air, EV advancement, and awareness of EV’s and how they work.

Cars are used by many people all over the world to get them from place to place. Most of these cars are powered by gasoline, some are powered by diesel, and some newly cars are powered electrically. Many people believe that electric cars can be the future of the car industry, but will most other car companies hurt from this? Electric cars use an electric motor to power the car instead of an engine, the owner of an electric car recharges the battery inside the car to power the motor. According to Tesla Motors, an electric car company, “Tesla possesses a high powered wall connector, which completely recharges the car in under 4 hours, and at max power, the high powered wall connector charges at a speed of 56 miles range per hour”(Tesla Motors “Tesla Vehicles Provide Attractive Environmental Benefits” 6). While electric cars do not have as much range as gas-powered cars, no emissions are made from the electric battery, which in result ends up benefiting to the environment.
