Introduction

An electric vehicle is one that is powered by an electric motor rather than an internal-combustion engine that burns a mixture of gasoline and gases to create power. As a result, such a vehicle is being considered as a potential replacement for current-generation automobiles in order to solve issues such as growing pollution, global warming, natural resource depletion, and so on. Despite the fact that the concept of electric vehicles has been around for a long time, it has garnered a lot of attention in the last decade as a result of the growing carbon footprint and other environmental implications of gasoline-powered vehicles.

Electric vehicles are powered at least in part by electricity. Electric cars and trucks, unlike traditional vehicles that utilize a gasoline or diesel engine, employ an electric motor fueled by energy from batteries or a fuel cell.
