The first ever electric car was built in the 19th century about 189 years ago, which is about 4 years after the first gasoline car was invented. Ever since major car industries relied on the latter, making gasoline automobiles the world order. For many years industries have tried to come up with replacements for gasoline automobiles.
Elon musk, one of the founders of PayPal, CEO of space x and many more companies has well as Tesla, always had a vision for a cleaner planet. Using our major and most loved items while it doesn't affect the planet sheltering us is quite a breakthrough. Because of this Vision Elon musk created the solar City a company that is based on building solar panels and also Tesla that is based on building electric cars and trucks. until then other companies never thought an electric car would make it far in the world. But still not everyone would want to drive an electric car, there are lots of car enthusiast in the world and a lot of them prefer the gasoline type automobiles to the electric brands, not because the gasoline are better or more durable, but most times it's the feeling they get form driving gasoline automobiles. “its about the adrenaline, smoking tyres, roaring engines, smell of oil and petroleum", these words are common among racers, mechanics, and die hard car lovers. sincerely the world would be totally different to get to the high way just to notice the roaring sounds of crazy engines of cars,motorcycles are all muted and replaced by a simple soft whizz.
we must take note that if all gasoline vehicles are replaced with electric types it would drastically reduce the rate of ozone layer depletion by about 75%, with this we would get a clear sky and reduced dark clouds and also acidic rains in some areas of the world, not only that, fogs made from fumes hovering
over major industrial cities would reduce drastically.
we wouldn't have to worry so much about a leak, low water, over heating, and also visiting the mechanic at a regular basis. Because this cars are powered by electricity faults pertaining to cars would be minimal and could be easily fixed in your garage. Also queuing for fuel at the petrol station would be totally eliminated has you could power up your car at the comfort of your home.
Many people believe power is the deep sound of revving engines and mistake the silence of electric vehicles to mean they are lacking in speed and effectiveness. In fact, the opposite is true. Electric cars accelerate faster than gasoline cars and have enough speed for every-day usage.
This is because electric motors are less complex than internal combustion engines. Therefore, electric vehicles can provide full driving force from 0 km, resulting in instant acceleration. While the combustion engines take longer time to distribute the power generated from the engines to all wheels. Compared to the electric cars in the gasoline using vehicles the power has to go through various moving parts, like the gearbox, making it less efficient and durable compared to the electric cars.
It would be quite unfair not to state a problem of electric cars, the simple motor of electric cars also has a fault. As most electric cars operate on a single speed gear, industries must choose between top speed and acceleration. You can liken this problem to having to choose only one gear level for your bicycle; the highest level would make it difficult to get started, the lowest level on the other hand would make lack in acceleration and speed. Due to this, many electric car brands seek for a balance between them, which at times means lower top speeds compared to their multiple geared, gasoline powered counterparts. Still,compared to the gasoline cars, the top speed of most electric cars are shadowed by the maximum speed limit accepted by the Government, which makes them fast enough for any normal usage.
Let me Know what you think about the electric cars and gasoline vehicles and which you would rather choose in the comment section below.
