My topic is “The Value of Electric Cars”. The value of electric vehicles is going to increase when the price of gas starts increasing. The price of gas constantly changes depending on location, what gas station you go to or even what type you put in. In the electric cars that run on gas will be nonexistent. Maybe soon after that, there will be self-fixing cars. What is an electric car? The answer to that question is as simple as a car that runs on a different source of fuel. This essay has facts from 10 years of data.
Electric Cars in the big cities play a big role in the fight to end big city smog and pollution. With fewer cars running on gas or diesel fewer emissions pumped into the atmosphere the amount of smog and pollution. Lots of big …show more content…
They would be newer and would be easier to operate than the older taxis that are loud and produce smog. (ENP Newswire,2016)
The first electric car was built in the early 1900’s. A well known electric car maker was an American known by the name of William Morrison. He started the Bailey company in the early 1900’s they started by making electric carriages in 1915 but the batteries couldn’t pull the carriages so they moved onto something smaller and lighter. After they struck gold and got a working battery that moved the car they improved and made it better. The electric car they developed in 1915 could go from 0-60 in 8 seconds. Its top speed was 110 miles per hour. The battery could travel 120 miles at 55 miles per hour before it needed to be recharged. (World Of Invention, 1999)
For the time of that car and the limitation of technology, that’s amazing. But the car never made it very far, a lot of people were more set on gasoline vehicles than electric at the time. During the late 60’s with the increase in oil and gasoline, the electric car popped back into the heads of car designers. Nowadays electric cars have gasoline engines with them too. In case, the owner runs out of energy in the electric motor and so the owner doesn’t have to call a tow truck every time he/she runs out of battery life. (UXL Science, …show more content…
In the 1940’s there were over 100 electric car companies around. But the only one that survived was the Bailey company. The reason for all of these companies failing at the time was they weren’t practical. Gas engines had already been around for so long people saw electric cars as obsolete. They didn 't last long due to a number of reasons. The starters worked better and more efficiently with gasoline motors. The main reason was they weren’t practical. The main problem with them in the early 2000’s was they didn’t sell enough for enough. General Motors took on the challenge of making them but they claimed they did make enough profit off of them. The strange thing is they never were able to be bought only leased. No reason why, nor does anyone know but GM made them for a year and stopped. A big guideline for electric cars in the 21st century was set by California’s zero emission mandate law. This is a law made for hybrid cars and also combustion vehicles nowadays. This changes many things in the system of the vehicle. There is also a different type of emissions there is Federal and California emission systems. The development of the automobile at the end of the nineteenth century fundamentally changed the structure of society in the developed world and has had wide-ranging effects on the
