Electric Cars: The Future Of The Future

The electric automobile as we know today has changed within just a century ago. The idea that was of a work of concept to being a long living dream that has changed the automobile scene in many ways. It has also spawn a new era of alternative energy uses besides consuming oils in many things we use today. In many ways the current electric car could change in how we perceive the current electric cars and all of its benefits it brings. The evolution of the electric car is interesting from its’ history and the competition that was happening during the past, in the present day it how it has made a resurgence plus has created innovations in the automotive industry and electric cars do have potential to become a powerhouse in the near future if

Just over a century ago, the original electric car predated in the early 1900’s. According to Now on PBS, “Scottish inventor Robert Anderson invent the first crude electric carriage powered by non-rechargeable primary cells”. Electric vehicles operate quietly and did not emit pollution compared to gasoline cars. As electricity become more accessible to more people. Many innovators saw interests in electric cars due to high demand, and were exploring ways to improve the batteries powering the cars. When electric cars were on the market, so did newly improved combustion engines in gasoline cars. While gasoline cars had promise they had some faults like it required a lot of manual effort to drive and they needed to be started with a hand crank to operate. Thomas Edison is one of the most iconic inventors, thought electric vehicles were the superior technology and had worked to build a better batteries for electric vehicle. Even Henry Ford partnered with Edison

If we transitioned all commercial grade vehicles in the U.S. to hybrids or plug-in electric vehicles using our current technology, we could reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and lowering the carbon pollution from the transportation. According to Energy.gov, “in 2012 President Obama launched the EV Everywhere Grand Challenge an Energy Department initiative”. It was a way to bring together America’s best and brightest scientists, engineers and businesses to make plug-in electric vehicles more as affordable as today’s gasoline-powered vehicles. This was a way to promote for building alternative fuel vehicles around the prices as its counterparts and to help reach these emissions savings. On the battery front, the working to overcome the biggest technical barriers that prevent large-scale improvements of batteries. Some agencies have R&D projects in which it’s advancing technologies that could alter, in how electric vehicles could perform in the near future. From investing in new types of batteries that could go further on a single charge to cost-effective alternatives to materials critical to electric motors, new projects could transform electric vehicles. In the end, only time will tell what road electric vehicles will take in the
