Topic: Electric car - do you like it? - page 2. (Read 2182 times)

With the new software and battery packs, you can travel up to 450 kilometers in an electric car today. Of course, this may vary depending on your vehicle's battery capacity, weather conditions and your driving style. For example, in very low or very high hot weather, when the vehicle's air conditioning systems are used, the driving distance of your electric car will be shortened during high speed travels.

Not only me, there are many people like me who like electrical things. Electrical things are very easy to do. People don't have to bother. You can say that electric cars are made. I like them very much.  I will buy a car because I like electric cars very much because it can be easily controlled and I can drive in a car that can easily do everything without any manual work.

When you so far ahead of the time.

This is of course very cool and beautiful, but when you start thinking about the fact that you have to charge absolutely everything cooing to yourself, it gets a little creepy.

Yes, the environment comes first

Apart from inverters and chargers, I don't see much difference between electric cars and classic ones in terms of amount of electronics. Electronic components have become more and more important in today's cars as reliability and performance are crucial. Therefore, most cars on the market today use a lot of electronic components. Not only does the digital electronics systems control the engine, transmission, and many other systems, they also provide much of the information to the driver through the dashboard and in the form of the multi-function display. All of this is unrelated to the type of drive.

Some systems may even be unnecessary in an electric vehicle. For example, electric vehicles do not have a fuel supply system or exhaust system, nor do they require electronics to control them. Therefore, I do not think the amount of electronics in electric cars should be a concern.

Electric cars are indeed cars that will be widely used in the future, because they are environmentally friendly, and do not pollute the air.
Everything starts from dreaming, now I can only dream first, until one day I can buy an electric car. But dreaming of getting an electric car is
not enough. We also have to work hard to earn a lot of money. Because the price of an electric car is indeed expensive when compared
to the price of a conventional car.

I know this was posted a while ago , but there are a couple of things  I'd like to say about electric cars, and is that perhaps they're not so good to the environment  after all; just a couple of thoughts put together for further analysis.

If you work in the electronics manufacturing industry o keep up with the latest news and trends, you'll know that currently, there is a shortage of electronic components, one that could last well into 2022; getting your hand on even the most basic electronic components is becoming harder and harder.

What do electric cars have to do with this, well, big tech companies, like Tesla, are pretty much hoarding electronic components, just in the same way as you saw people hoarding toilet paper at the beginning of the pandemic, well, companies are hoarding all sorts of electronic components.

Factories are working at full capacity and are not willing to expand out of fear that this surge in demand will go away, but they're not sure, https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/biz/archives/2021/04/22/2003756110

Why did I say that perhaps electric cars are not so good for the environment, well, all of them need semiconductors to work, and semiconductors manufacturing is a water hungry process. https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2021-02-25/making-chips-requires-lots-of-water-and-gulp-taiwan-has-a-drought

Taiwan, the center of semiconductors, is currently going though a severe drought, could it have been caused by the semiconductors fabs? I believe is part of it, but it's also got to do with the fact that there hasn't been a typhoon in a while.


The shortage of semiconductors and other electronic components is so severe that design houses are recommending companies to design 2 or even 3 different PCBs layouts to juggle around with components availability when the type for purchasing comes, that's crazy. https://titoma.com/blog/reduce-component-lead-time

Do I believe that electric cars are totally bad? No, but I believe that there is so much that goes into manufacturing that is harmful for the environment and that the general public doesn't realize.

I am a fan of electric cars, I can not say that I love only electric cars, but they bring me the most pleasure!

I like the electric car concept, I don't own one myself but I'll be glad if I have one. low noise and pollution it's one of the best invention humans have discovers.

What does electric cars have to do with traffic jams? Or perhaps you meant electric bikes or scooters?

I like it very much. It is convenient for everyone. I like it without traffic jams.

I will definitely buy an electric car.
1. I need high driving quality.
In most cases, the main function of the car is still to bring me from point A to point B quietly and comfortably. I also think that this is the main purpose of most people most of the time. In this regard, the quiet, comfortable, green and low-carbon electric vehicles are certainly great advantages.
2. I need strong acceleration capabilities.
In some cases, I occasionally exercise, but I do not speed, so I need a strong acceleration ability, but I don't need a strong top speed ability. If the maximum speed is forced to be limited to 130km/h, I can completely accept it. As long as you are in the first place in the red light, it is enough to switch off with a kick~
3. I don't need a strong battery life.
For me, in most cases, there will not be a single mileage of more than 300km, so for me, 300km of battery life is enough. Above this number, I will stop driving. I will choose other modes of transportation.

Even though electric cars are usually more expensive to buy, they are more affordable to run than gas-powered ones. But many people love them because they're environmentally friendly. Electric cars are better for the environment because they don't emit carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases, and they can generate as much as 90 per cent less pollution than conventional cars.

electric car is my future car,,now just dreaming first. dreaming before really i can buy

I love electric cars because it's economical

I will like to buy an electric car and drive in one day but don't think it will ever be possible in my country because of shortage of power supply charging the car will be a huge problem.But it will be a very nice development to have them here.

i like the idea of electic cars. but our coverment, did not support it well.. so it will stay a expensive dream :/

Electric cars are the future. But also they are the past. First electric cars were developed back in 19 century. And for a century old technology they are only now starting to pick up the range. Future for electric is bright, unless we develop synthetic fuel and it will overshadow electric.
\As far as Cybertruck goes - it's alright. Will have to see it on the road to make a decision but so far I don't think it's too far from reality.

I love the electric car and admire the engineering thought to create new technologies. In the near future, our planet will become cleaner. To my regret, the cost of an electric car is still unattainable for me. But I hope in the future I will have my own electric car.
