fuel and gases. Therefore, such as vehicle is seen as a possible replacement for
global warming, depleting natural resources, etc. Though the concept of electric
vehicles has been around for a long time, it has drawn a considerable amount of
interest in the past decade amid a rising carbon footprint and other environmental

⮚ However, automakers still need to overcome some hurdles before
they’re broadly adopted.
The amount of time it takes to charge a car depends on the battery capacity and
the speed of the charger. A standard wall charger can take 8 hours to charge a
Tesla Model S, whereas a supercharger would take 1 hour. Many chargers that
you will encounter out and about will take at least 2 hours to charge a discharged
battery fully.
Although the range of most electric vehicle models has improved significantly in
just a few short years, a limited driving range does present a challenge to many
drivers.
The range on the 2020 Nissan Leaf is 150 miles, and the Tesla Model 3
trip in an electric vehicle would require some careful planning and likely some
3
inconvenient stops. A study by AAA found that vehicle range went down by 41%
when the temperature dipped to 20 degrees Fahrenheit and the heat was on.
There are rapid developments in battery and charging technology, but this is
causing deep uncertainty. Which charging technologies will become the gold
standard?
Perhaps home charging will not be as important as it is now. Should drivers use
facilities at petrol stations, their office or in empty supermarket car parks at night?
Other options being explored include induction pads embedded in major roads,
Once we ensure enough green energy to charge all EVs, we have to secure enough
recharging stations around the world. This also won't be an easy task. According to
the Department of Energy, there are over 30,000 charging stations in the U.S.
However, as in traffic, there are peak hours which are the most convenient periods

To do that, the electric grid should have its own relatively high-cost storage system of
green electricity. Even with many owners recharging their electric cars at home
during the night, the home electrical systems should have their storage, since
renewable energy, like solar and wind, also has its "working hours".
⮚ Although electric cars require less maintenance and fewer repairs, it is still
important to find a qualified mechanic in your area. Unfortunately, 97% of
mechanics are not qualified to work on electric vehicles. Of the 3% that is,
They may not produce the usual exhaust pipe emissions, but even if all of the world
electricity was from renewable sources, there would still be an environmental cost.
Sourcing the minerals used for batteries, dismantling batteries which have
