An electric car is powered by an electric motor instead of a gasoline engine. The electric motor gets energy from a controller‚ which regulates the amount of power transmitted throughout the vehicle‚ based on the driver’s use of an accelerator pedal. The electric motors give electric cars instant torque‚ creating a strong and smooth acceleration pattern. Electric cars are about three times more efficient than cars with an internal combustion engine. A pure-battery electric car uses energy stored

maintains competitive input pricing. However‚ the electric vehicle (EV) industry demonstrates a different type of dynamic. Consumer power is middling‚ due to slightly higher switching costs and the limited selection of mass produced EVs currently available. The threat of new entrants is much greater since both traditional automakers are entering the electric market‚ complemented by an ever-increasing number of start-ups. Around 1890‚ the first American electric car powered by 24 batteries had a range of
