Introduction
An electric car is propelled by at least one electric motor that uses electrical 
energy to run. This energy is stored in rechargeable batteries or other 
electrical storage devices. 
Contrary to a hybrid car that is powered by petrol or diesel and uses a battery 
as well as a motor to enhance its efficiency, an electric car is fuelled by 
electricity only.
Electric Cars 
Require Minimum 
Maintenance
In contrast with combustion engines, the motors of electric cars have fewer moving 
parts. As a result totally electric cars can go without maintenance for much longer 
running hours.
However, electric cars lose their efficiency beyond a certain number of recharges. This 
is because, like any battery, the cells in the batteries of electric cars can only be 
recharged a specific number of times before they lose their efficiency.
Electric Cars Can be 
a Money-Saver
Appropriate use of an electric car saves you money in the long term. If 
you intend on using the electric car for local commuting then the cost to 
recharge the car will be lower than running a vehicle on fossil fuels.

commute.

can utilize during the day, when at work.

Electric cars cannot travel as far as cars powered by traditional fossil 
fuels. However, new innovations in technology are being utilized to 
increase their range and to meet with the expectations of new drivers.
