Why electric car?

  1. GREEN : First of all, they are clean. Zero emissions --- no NOx, no CO, no CO2 --- nothing.
  2. NO MORE FUEL IN FUTURE : In 50 years or earlier, it’ll be too expensive to produce fossil fuel. That means we have to find other energy sources. Electricity can be produced by many sources; coal, natural gas, nuclear, hydraulic power or from renewable sources like wind or solar.
  3. HIGH EFFICIENCY : With gasoline engine, you get less than 30% of the energy you put in your tank but with electric motor you can get more than 40% (until more than 90%) depending on how you produce electricity. Efficiency of electric motor and drive itself can be easily higher than 90%. You can drive an electric car and pay your electricity bill much less than when you drive your old gas car.
  4. SILENT AND COMFORT : No more noise and vibration like gas engine. It sounds something like .... oh I don't know how to 'write' this sound.
  5. LET'S PLUG YOUR CAR : Don’t waste time in gas station. Plug-in your car in your garage when you sleep or at your office when you work, just like you charge your mobile phone.
  6. LOW MAINTENANCE : air filter, engine oil, oil filter, spark plug, water pump, valve setting, belt --- forget all about them.
  7. It’s COOL!!!
