Electric Cars

This is something that I’ve just recently become interested in, because of the many advantages electric cars have. I think we should all be driving them, They produce less noise than gasoline- or diesel-powered vehicles,
and their more energy efficient in stop-and-go traffic, because the engine does not run when the car is not moving!
Picture
The average monthly electricity cost for your average EV driver, P (EV that’s electric vehicle) is less than $30, compared to $175, for gasoline. ​

This graph shows the annual running cost is less than $300

They are eco friendly with No tail pipe emissions and No dependence of foreign oil.

Electric vehicles also have lower maintenance costs, because an electric motor has fewer moving parts than an internal combustion engine and does not require any tune-ups or oil changes.
  • Electric vehicles don’t have timing belts, water pumps, radiators, fuel injectors, or tailpipes to replace.
  • Electric cars acceleration, speed, and handling can equal or exceed that of conventional vehicles. The danger of fire in a crash is reduced because they do not have a gas tank  and their lower centre of gravity makes them less likely to roll in an accident

Recharging at home is cheap and simple, on average 45mins on a normal power point or have a fast-charging High-voltage unit installed in your home and charge in 10 to 20 minutes

Purchase prices can potentially be offset by lower "fuel" and maintenance costs

There is a huge abundance of Renewable energy in the world these come from Natural resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, and geothermal heat which are all naturally replenished and can run your car

  • Economic trends show that  renewable energy gets cheaper over time while other non renewable forms get more expensive

  • New Zealanders commute an average of 62 km per day; the current Tesla model S goes up to 480km on a single charge.

  • To put that into perspective you could drive from Auckland to Rotorua and back.
  • Or from Auckland to Hastings without recharging. After all that driving I think you deserve a 45min break don’t you.
Picture
  • with battery swap stations, just like a stop at gas station but without even getting out of your car, swipe your card and align your vehicle, explain using hands. like at car wash, arms reach underneath your car to detach your battery to recharge and it is then replaced with a  fully charged battery.

  • These are some of the batteries used in electric cars
  • Lead-acid batteries these need to be replaced every 3 years they are the same type of battery that are used to start your gasoline car.
  • Lithium-Ions are smaller and have a long driving range and life cycle, they last 10-15 years
  • Fuel cells are Currently under development that are capable of storing a larger amounts of energy in smaller, lighter weight systems than chemical batteries



Hybrid vehicles combine an electric motor with a separate gasoline or diesel generator engine. Hybrid vehicles can more than double the gas mileage of conventional gasoline- or diesel-powered cars and can cut emissions significantly. Hybrid vehicles do not require the use of recharging stations
  • an electric motor converts electricity “usually from a battery pack” into mechanical power that runs the vehicle

It is because gasoline stations are everywhere. it is more established than charging stations. Tesla for example, has various charging stations, but even hybrid tesla cars drivers still prefer to use gasoline mode on their cars because of the issue on lack of charging stations. This is specially true when you are on a long ride, where in you cannot recharge.

Using electric car gives you a peace of mind that you are helping to reduce carbon emission from using gasoline. It is cool too and may cause you less in terms fuel.
