The development of electric cars will be much like the Internet revolution. It is said that electric cars will also quickly take over the market just as the trend of online services including google has developed rapidly. The advent of smartphones has revolutionized internet based services. Such a big revolution is expected in the global car industry. Governments around the world are now moving towards banning the sale of petrol and diesel vehicles as technological advances show the potential of eco- riendly electric vehicles.

Are you drunk or something.
Did the internet revolution take 120 Years to get going?
"quickly take over the market" What?
"eco- riendly electric" Right, power comes from power plug. (never mind the losers along the way after electric been produced a coal power plant)

Use nuclear wastes to make the electricity from to power the car. Nuclear battery.

Hello WO buddy's Onzen is back

In the future, electronic vehicle will be quite common. These days, it's impossible to get around without a vehicle that runs on gasoline or diesel. There will come a day when there will be less fuel oil available globally, which will result in a rise in fuel oil prices. Which none of them will be able to afford. This will lead to a rise in the demand for electric vehicles in the future. Since then, the only affordable transportation option will be electronic vehicle.

This is indeed the future, I suggest you do some research on the early electric cars. And why gas cars eventually dominated market share. It is all about them $$$. But why have $$$ when it is not good for the planet. Every bit helps, whether buying a Tesla or simply having solar panels on your house for your electricity at home.

A good reason to do so and motivate those that read this comment: If you produce more electricity than you use at home, you can sell it to your neighbors.

Global X recently made its case for EVs (via Seeking Alpha) explaining that "electric vehicles are rapidly advancing and appear poised to trigger the transportation industry's largest shakeup in over a century." Why? In a series of charts, Global X states their case. First, "EVs have various advantages over ICE vehicles, including cheaper fuel, lower maintenance costs, and less air pollution."

The concept of an electric car is great, and people definitely want to believe and get involved, but until the associated infrastructure is in place than people just won't buy one. One of the most common things I have heard about electric cars is 'I can't go on a long road trip' even though, more than likely, the person making that comment only goes on one 'long' drive a year (if that). So, until those people are convinced that the infrastructure allows them to do things like that, the greater population won't budge on petrol cars

Alot of the major car manufacturers are turning their sights on electric and hybrid cars and it seems it's only a matter of time before petrol and diesel cars are gone the way of the dodo. Tesla unveiled an impressive truck for transporting goods. Alot of governments and car manufacturers seem to be getting on board with going green for all the obvious reasons but how soon do you predict before electric is the norm in transportation ?

Do you own an electric car or are considering buying one ? What are your reasons for buying it ?

electric cars free us from the conflicts in the middle east. and it also removes bargaining ability of many middle eastern countries.

(this is my post nr. 4000)

Congrats on the post, but a correction.

Texas Fracking industry has already freed us from the Middle East conflicts and removed the bargaining ability of those countries.

Interesting question though whether electric cars could have a similar effect. I'm inclined to say no, even though about 40% of a barrel of crude does become gasoline.

The reason to hesitate on this is that some time ago, everyone was promised that solar and wind would free us from (blah-blah-blah). None of that came to be true, and nuclear power, which actually could free us, has been systematically thwarted for decades.

Imho the main problem is high tariffs (especially against chinese) on solar imports by the US and EU.

If i remember correct without tariffs solar prices would fall 30-50+%.

Electric cars are still incredibly wasteful and inefficient from a resource point of view. It is much more environmentally friendly to just not use cars at all.

walking>>public transit>car share>electric car>gasoline car

So if we were to scale them 1-5 these musk fanboys are bragging about going from a score of 1 to a score of 2.

In my country we don't have electric car but we have electric bike and jeep now where instead of gasoline it needs to charge only. But so far I don't have plan to buy them both. I don't think also it will become the future car in my opinion. Possible drone could be the future for transportation not electric car.

Personally, I don't want to have a car I prefer on riding a public vehicle. It can help reduce traffic and pollution. In terms of electricity , electricity was produced by different power source like coal, diesel, wind, hydro and geothermal. When diesel is gone the source of producing electricity will be lessen. I think it will be great if all of us doesn't have personal vehicles but rather ride public vehicle (even the diesel powered or electricity). but the technology grows we can have solution for power generation to cars that have lesser consumption of electricity. And that would be the future. Electric cars is just the start of our improving technology.

Not buying an electric car but an Electric bike, i would like to take part in reservation of our planet like I don't want to add up to pollution that is why instead of riding a car from dorm to work I woke up 15mins earlier to just walk around. For me its the lease I can do to decrease pollution that's my reason reason why I would like to purchase Electric bike

I like my electric bike. But a lot of countries limit you to 250 watt motors, depending on your terrain and body weight that might not really get the job done. Mine is 1000w...

Norway - is a good example in regards of using electric cars. Nearly a third of all new cars sold in the country this year - a plug-in model – either fully electric or a hybrid. But, we have to admit, that they way expensive then usual cars, specially in Norway.
I believe its a future ... give it a time, and they will take over a half or even more of car market

I own 2 Toyota Pruus with a combined mileage of 500,000. They are super reliable and since I drive about 100 miles per day they save me a ton of cash. I totally recommend hybrids.

You can't "recommend hybrids." You can recommend the Prius which you have experience with.

There are quite a few hybrids that have nothing good going for them.

Is your driving mostly city or highway?
