Electrical Cars

Electrical cars are the vehicles uses chemical energy (electric energy is converted into chemical energy during charging of batteries) stored in batteries as their output. They are eco-friendly vehicles because they are not emitting any pollute gases. They are also known as ZEVs (Zero Emission Vehicles). They are producing only heat during their use.

Batteries used in electrical car

A wide variety of batteries are used in electrical vehicles. Batteries are placed into battery packs. Batteries used in these vehicles includes lead-acid, absorbed glass mat, nickel, zinc air batteries, nickel metal hydride, molten salt battery etc. For added range genset trailers or pusher trailers are occasionally used to form a type of hybrid vehicle

Efficiency

Electrical cars achieve almost 0.3 to 0.5 kWh per mile which is relatively more efficiency instead of other kind of vehicles. In case of total energy cycle their efficiency figures drop (e.g. the loss of efficiency from energy used to produce specialized fuels such as gasoline as compare to the raw energy available from crude oil or natural gas).

Performance

Many of modern electric vehicles are able of giving performance which exceeds that of conventional gasoline powered cars. Electric cars utilize a direct motor to wheel configuration which results in increases the power deliverability to the wheels. Traction is also increased because multiple motors are connected directly with wheels.
