The Electric Car

The Electric Car

Federico Maroli

An electric car is an automobile that is propelled by one electric motor or more, using electrical energy stored in batteries or another energy storage device. Electric Motors give electric cars instant torque, creating strong and smooth acceleration. Some cars have an electric motor that works when the driver is pushing “hard” on the throttle and a benzene motor that works when the driver is exceeding a certain speed. This allows the car to pollute less while driving around the city and driving at normal speeds on highways. Also Electric Cars are considered to be more expensive due to the fact that they are equipped with ultra-modern systems in their motors, however Hybrid Cars, since they are an innovation and an improvement of the “old” cars, they are accessible to “low income people”. One common positive effect these cars have is the decrease of air pollution and also noise pollution, which some people find incredibly annoying. Also, it will allow future generations to have a supply of fossil fuels of their own, in order to use them for public and private transport when they will need it.
