Electric Cars
Electric cars are vehicles that are powered entirely or primarily by electric motors, using energy stored in rechargeable batteries. Unlike traditional cars that use internal combustion engines fueled by gasoline or diesel, electric cars rely on electricity to propel them. They can be charged from external power sources, such as home charging stations or public charging points. Electric cars are known for their potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and decrease air pollution, as they do not emit exhaust gases during operation. They can also offer lower operating costs, as electricity tends to be cheaper than gasoline, and they generally require less maintenance due to fewer moving parts. Electric cars come in various forms, including all-electric vehicles (BEVs), which run solely on electric power, and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), which combine an electric motor with a conventional internal combustion engine. The rise of electric cars is often associated with advancements in battery technology, increased environmental awareness, and the growing availability of charging infrastructure.
