Compare And Contrast Electric Cars And Petrol Cars

The traditional use of petrol cars is dominant in the automobile industry. It has become common for cars to be owned and ridden in the world today. This invention has allowed us to easily travel to one place to another and has greatly improved our system of transportation. However, we have failed to realize how much damage is being made to the environment by us humans. In an effort to improve the environment, we have now become aware of this. As a result, we have developed technology to reduce the number of effects caused by the past and to prevent any further possibilities of damage in the future. For example, the development of electric cars are revolutionary and are soon to dominate the automotive industry in the near future. It is expected
Cars are dangerous machines that can kill you. Nearly 1.3 million people die in a car crashes every year, which is approximately 3,200 people dying every day. Imagine you were driving and got into an accident with a tank full of gasoline which can potentially flare up. in only a few moments you can be engulfed in flame. However, you will no longer have to worry about gasoline catching on fire nor cars exploding since electric cars have fewer chances of flaring up. “I accept every time I get in my car there is a 20% chance I could die, and I can live with it, but not 1% more.” (Niki Lauda). Electric cars are the answer to bring the percentage lower. The majority of the electric vehicles in the market have lithium-ion batteries installed. However, people are doubting the safeness of the use of lithium-ion batteries . This is due to the fact that lithium-ion batteries have a tendency to flare up easily. So, the real question is, is it really safe to use these batteries for electric cars. The answer is yes. The improvement in battery management systems have made it possible to monitor the activity of each cell and link the information to CPU, which will allow the cooling system to adjust the temperature of each cell. The driver will get a warning if there is any problem and even shut down the whole entire battery system in case of emergency. Also, each battery cell is divided by firewalls. Firewalls will slow down the spreading of a fire and buy enough time for a driver to exit the vehicle. In addition, electric vehicles have a lower center of gravity than gas vehicles, reducing the risk of rollover and improving the quality of the ride. By locating the battery cells under the structure greater crumple zone was created to reduce the impact in an event of
