A Beginner's Guide to Electric Cars

Electric cars, or EVs, get their power only from electrical sources. An electric vehicle (EV) runs on batteries instead of conventional petrol. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) are another name for Electric Vehicles.

How are EVs different from conventional vehicles?

While both the electric and the petrol/diesel vehicle would look more or less similar; however, both are different. The electric motor(s) in an EV receives power from the vehicle’s batteries. On the other hand, an internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle gets its power from gasoline stored in a fuel tank.

How are Electric Vehicles Charged?

Plug-in hybrids and battery-electric cars require being plugged in to charge, while basic hybrid electric vehicles charge themselves while driving. A household charging station, as is a public or commercial charging station, is another option. In addition, there are charging outlets everywhere, from stores and gas stations to apartment buildings.

The procedure of charging an electric vehicle is equivalent to charging any other device. Electrical connectors supply power to EVs in place of traditional gas caps. Electric vehicles can be charged by connecting the vehicle’s charging wire to a charging station’s cable.

There is also the option of wireless charging, which functions similarly to wireless phone charging. Charging is accomplished by parking a compatible vehicle over a wireless charging pad, as these vehicles feature a wireless charging receiver incorporated into their undercarriage.

Switch of the Auto Industry to EVs. 

Despite being present for over a century, gasoline-powered automobiles have largely overshadowed electric vehicles (EVs). Although EVs have long been tested in the auto industry, relatively recently, their range and performance rivaled their gasoline-powered counterparts. Nevertheless, sales of electric vehicles (EVs) continue to increase every year, and consumers can now choose from an increasing number of EV models available from every major manufacturer.

The automobile industry has begun transitioning toward battery power and away from fossil fuels, even though EVs currently only make up a small portion of the market. The industry is placing bets on rising consumer demand as EVs become more mainstream.

How are EVs environment-friendly?

Since electric vehicles (EVs) create no carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions during operation, the term “zero-emissions transport” is frequently applied to them. However, to begin with, the production of batteries for electric vehicles results in a larger embodied carbon footprint than that of internal combustion engine vehicles. 

A lower total environmental cost is necessary for an EV to have a net positive impact analogized to an internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle. The greater emissions savings must outweigh the higher up-front environmental cost during the lifetime of its operation. If you’re an EV owner, you can do your part for sustainable transportation by charging your vehicle using green energy.
