Electric cars are growing in the automotive industry statistics show last year the
German, automotive industry sold 146,000. “The number of electric cars worldwide rose
to 3.2 million” electric cars sold in 2018. Electric cars are more efficient because they’re
compact easy to operate they have less moving components to repair. And also they are
good for the environment less emissions. First known electric car was built in 1837. “Did
you know electric cars were the most popular car’s in the 1920s during their period Electric
The world is not ready for electric car’s because it’s still in the testing stages isn’t proven
as reliable technology. Charging stations aren’t as plentiful as a traditional gas station the elderly
would have trouble learning new technology. I think if we don’t come together to solve this
issue in our environment then we won’t strive to develop a necessary alternative fuel for a
vehicle, using natural resources is bad for the environment and Ozone layers. I believe that
electric cars should be available for countries with high polluted area’s to solve rough living
situations such as environmental issues I would also offer incentives such as free electricity for
two Years until 2021. Also, I would offer free maintenance for six months my plan would be put
into effect by advertising through car manufacturers, commercial, and electric car companies
such as Tesla. Why buy gas giants which are horrible for the environment instead of damaging

our air with harmful emissions use the alternative electric car’s better faster efficient for our
environment.
Why electric cars are useful and why people are buying them. Electric cars are
dependable unlike gas vehicles. “Fueling with electricity offers some advantages not available in
conventional internal combustion engines vehicles. Because electric motors react quickly Ev’s
are very responsible and have very good torque” (benefits of Ev’s) this quote supports the claim
that electric cars are dependable and will react to any error sooner than a combustion engine.
Why are people buying electric cars, Are electric vehicles fuel efficient? “The biggest
reason people said they would buy an electric car is concern for the environment about 80% of
people who said they would buy an EV cited this as a reason. Next, 67% of people cited lower
operating cost. Electricity costs much less per mile than gasoline or diesel fuel, and electric cars
costs less to maintain since they have far fewer moving parts and don’t require oil changes.
(Peter Valdes - Dapena) More and more Americans are buying Electric vehicles each year.
EV’s are dependable machines, giving Americans more opportunities each year to
Electric cars are good for the general public because, Electric cars are entirely crash
tested and safer than gas cars. But not only are electric car’s safer than gas vehicles they’re more
efficient easier to use but also to fix in most cases. “Low maintenance and low running cost
Electric Cars, have fewer parts there more easily to fix.” Electric cars have lower maintenance
cost because there are fewer complicated parts that won’t cost so much to fix. Yes Electric cars
have fewer engine parts than gas car’s which only makes them more operational in maintaining
the vehicle.

“Did you know electric cars were the most popular car’s in the 1920s during this time
period EV's were more convenient easier to operate.” Overall electric cars are just better than gas
car’s altogether cooperating isn’t so different but it’s more convenient for the public everyday
consumers. The main point of this issue is that electric cars are more convenient than gas car’s
Are Electric cars worth the effort to purchase, Are electric cars really a good buy for consumers.
“The price of electric vehicles is coming down but they still look expensive compared with many
gasoline powered cars that comparison though, is misleading once you figure in the cost of
ownership, especially maintenance and fuel, Electric vehicles are a bargain despite the up-front Commented [MWJ1]: Finish your paragraph
price tag. Electric cars seem expensive but past that price tag they are extremely easy to
maintain. Electric car price range is important for consumers. “This year the average electric car
transaction price decreased by two percent from 2016 some affordable models are the 220 mile
range Tesla model 3 for $35,000 and the Chevrolet Bolt with 238 mile range for $37,495.
Price matters for consumers wanting to buy cheaper models for a cheap affordable cost. Electric
cars are worth the price but that doesn’t mean consumers should have a reason not to buy electric
vehicles.
The bright side of EV’s is that gassing up is a thing of the past electric cars are entirely
charged up by energy. No worries electric cars are a thing of the future charging up is better than
burning natural resources “charging is easier than you think owner’s say you become

accustomed to it immediately like plugging in your phone” Charging up electric car’s isn’t that
difficult it’s actually pretty easy task the more you do it. Electric cars are pretty efficient while
charging make sure to plug up during night. “On average American’s drive cars and vans about
30 miles per day even the cheapest overnight chargers can cover this easily.” Newer electric
vehicles now of days have 238 miles before running out of cars but before electric cars only had
about 100 miles of charge big changes. When buying an EV you will never have to worry about
Electric cars are different than gas cars because electricity doesn’t pollute the air like gas
emissions. When you start up an electric car it doesn’t pump out exhaust, but it does the
complete opposite it keeps everything on the inside which is safer for the public? “Reduced noise
pollution electric car’s put curb on noise pollution they are much Quieter.” Limits noise pollution
with a simple upgrade electric car are built to limit noise and pollution. “They are heavier than
gasoline cars, but less noisy electric cars are heavy with the big battery but safer because of
weight.” All together electric cars are safer than gas because of their reduced noise but also less
dangerous car fluids less chance of catching on fire. Electric cars are as safe as gas but better
One argument against electric cars is that their battery life is too limited. Electric car’s
battery life is limited range is also limited electric cars have a common hassle of running out of
charge. “A gas vehicle range of. About 290 miles but an electric car mile average 265 miles.”
Pretty much gas cars have a higher range miles per gallon than Electric cars with one weak
charge isn’t going to outperform gas cars. Electric cars will never outperform gas vehicles with
such limited range their battery can only go so far when it comes down to the miles per charge.

“ It takes too long to recharge an electric car because the Chevy Volt can be fully charged in four
hours if you have somewhere to be right now especially finishing up an empty tank, gas stations
typically take three minutes” Electric car recharging doesn’t meet the same expected time as gas
car’s which isn’t acceptable for the everyday working class. Furthermore, into the matter electric
cars will never exceed the further Qualifications of a gas running vehicle because charging and
range is limited. Too Expensive why buy an electric car if there too expensive to buy most
common issue when trying to purchase an EV's Why don’t most people buy electric cars it’s
because electric cars are out of budget plans the most an average person makes is roughly 45
thousand a year which isn’t really that much to afford one of those bad boys. “Lack of service
Center’s if your local dealership doesn’t stock EV's there’s. A chance it’s not certified to fix
them.” Why buy a vehicle that can’t even be fixed that’s costing more money out of pocket then
the original selling price? Don’t buy an electric car if the dealership that you purchase it from
doesn’t service\fix that type of vehicle. “Batteries will wear out most electric cars haven’t been
around long enough to rack up a huge number of miles.” Yes, over time electric car batteries will
wear out just like a gas vehicle engine with a short life span. Electric cars are expensive but not
only price of buying but also price of fixing maintenance is another big issue battery will wear
I think that 99% of all drivers should have electric vehicles in his/her garage due to
environmental issues eventually oil will be too expensive for the general public consumption.
Electric cars are becoming more and more popular each year. Electric cars are good for
consumers due to healthy environment history no gas required just charge up powered by clean
energy. Also, electric cars are environmentally good no harmful emissions included I think that
all drivers should have an electric car with them oil won’t be here forever eventually oil will be

too expensive to purchase. EC's will help end harmful emissions into our planet atmosphere,
