In Brief
  • Recently it has been discovered that electric cars are preferable for the current state of our environment.
  • Their emissions are less harmful, and they have a smaller carbon footprint than regular petrol or diesel vehicles.
  • Most electric cars are equipped with batteries that allow them to travel at least 50 km without being charged.

Recently it has been discovered that electric cars are preferable for the current state of our environment. Their emissions are less harmful, and they have a smaller carbon footprint than regular petrol or diesel vehicles. Most electric cars are equipped with batteries that allow them to travel at least 50 km without being charged.

There are two types of batteries available on the market: Lithium-ion batteries (Li-ion) and Nickel Metal Hydride Batteries (NiMH). The Li-ion battery may last up to 2 years if used correctly, while NiMH batteries could last forever. However, it is costly to replace a Li-ion battery.

This kind of vehicle can be found in many countries worldwide, including Australia, where the first modern car powered by electricity was being sold in 1903. The problem is that these cars are still not very popular, maybe because of the high price of large battery packs.

There has been a lot of research done to make these vehicles cheaper and more efficient. However, even when they become more affordable and better, there will probably still be “range anxiety,” when people worry that their batteries will run out before getting back home or arriving at their destination. Luckily, this feeling could decrease in future years because vehicle manufacturers invest in developing technology to make long-distance journeys possible for electric vehicles (EVs).

 

Who are manufacturing electric vehicles?

Nowadays, people can already buy an almost regular Nissan Leaf with a 100% electric motor and no petrol tank. In addition, other models have been announced by companies such as Tesla Motors [Tesla’s website], Volkswagen [VW’s website], Renault-Nissan [Renault-Nissan’s website], and Mitsubishi [Mitsubishi’s website]

It is expected that this technology will be widely used in vehicles all over the world in the future. However, it would depend on consumers if they choose to purchase an EV or a regular car. Electric cars could help save the environment because they would emit only water from their tailpipes instead of harmful gases such as CO2 and NOx. In addition, EVs can accelerate faster than regular cars, and they have a smaller turning radius. Their engines are specially designed to be quiet, making them suitable for driving in the inner city where the noise from traffic can annoy people.

However, electric vehicles will cost more to make, maintain and recycle because their batteries contain expensive rare elements such as cobalt, nickel, manganese, and graphite. In addition, recycling these batteries is hard because old ones cannot provide enough energy for powering a car anymore. Therefore, research has been done into producing longer-lasting Li-ion batteries that would increase the range of EVs. In addition, companies are also researching cheaper methods to produce them so that battery packs could eventually become much more affordable than buying petrol or diesel.

Another problem is that electricity generation can also produce greenhouse gases, which are even more dangerous than those emitted by cars. Scientists have proposed using renewable energy sources to power EVs, but this could be expensive and inefficient. It would require building a massive network of fast-charging stations that would still take long periods before becoming ready for use.

However, there are many advantages that electric vehicles offer over regular petrol or diesel cars—such as avoiding the current oil crisis and reducing CO2 emissions. In addition, they can accelerate faster, and their engines do not need rebuilding as often as those in classic cars. Therefore, most people believe that these kinds of vehicles will eventually become cheaper and more popular. However, whether or not they will replace the existing cars worldwide still depends on consumers.
