  • There are several benefits of electric cars over gasoline cars, some of which are: 1. Environmentally friendly: Electric cars produce zero emissions which means they don't pollute the environment. They help in reducing carbon emissions, and the more electric cars on the road, the less harmful pollutants will be in the air. 2. Lower operating costs: Electric cars require less maintenance, have fewer parts that can wear out and need replacing, and electricity is much cheaper than gasoline. 3. Quiet and comfortable: Electric cars are quieter and smoother than gasoline cars because they don't have an internal combustion engine. 4. Reduced dependence on oil: Since electric cars run on electricity, they are less dependent on oil than gasoline cars, which means they can help reduce our dependence on foreign oil. 5. Government incentives: Electric cars may qualify for government incentives and subsidies, making them more affordable than gasoline cars. Overall, electric cars are a better choice in terms of environmental impact, energy efficiency, and operating costs.

      Stop overselling it. It doesn't eliminate pollution, just reduces it. It isn't necessarily cheaper, either, at least not without the government incentives.
  • Electric cars batteries must be charged to operate. Most power generating facilities require fossil fuel to produce electricity. Batteries wear out and must be replaced. Unless properly disposed of they pollute the environment more than fossil fuels. Electric cars can only go about 250 miles between charging therefore they require over half again as much time to complete a 1000 mile trip, longer in mountainous areas. If your batteries go dead out on the highway you can't go to a gas station and get a couple of gallons of electricity to get your car into a town. The original cost is much higher than fossil fuel cars. The weight is more because batteries are heavier thus harder on the roadbeds. Give me a fossil fueled car anytime.
  • More enviromental waste raping the earth for short term gains that in the long term are just more industrial waste. Don't worry about exploiting children or poisening workers in lithium mines. Go and see what a lithuium mine does to the earth is it worth it? If there was no tax breaks and electric cars had to surive on their own merits would they still exist? How about some of these mining companys make good the earth they mined? When a tesla is charged from a diesal generator how many litres per hundred Kilometers does it use?
