In a changing world, and facing extreme climate crisis, responsible buyers face the important decision of buying an efficient and energy-friendly car. When dealing with this decision, there are two main choices on the market today: the increasingly popular hybrid, or the more obscure and more incredible electric car. Blocked from the market by big oil companies since its invention, an electric car dealer may be hard to find, although an electric car motor can be placed in almost any vehicle. The electric car is one of the best-kept secrets on the market – because so few people are using it, few people understand just what an amazing possibility it offers for fast, efficient, and eco-friendly transportation.
What is an Electric Car?
Unlike the boomingly popular hybrid vehicles, which still draw all their power from the gas pump, an electric car operates solely fueled by electricity – good news for you, for your pocketbook, and for the planet. An electric car is “plugged in” to an outlet or else (or additionally) equipped with solar panels to provide energy, and can generally run from 4-5 hours on a full charge. Www.evworld.com provides more information about electric cars and advanced eco-technology.
Why Buy an Electric Car?
Although many people are deterred from buying an electric car by the initial cost, in the long run, it is almost unfailingly a profitable investment. Within as little as two years – and generally less than five – you can literally earn back the extra money invested in the electric car by the money you save on gas. Because electric cars do work purely on electricity, there is absolutely no emission output from the car itself – thus driving an electric car is one of the few ways to achieve practical transportation without polluting the environment.
How to Buy an Electric Car
Because of the interference of big oil companies and gasoline politics, it is increasingly difficult to find an electric car dealer in the United States. It is, however, very possible to perform an electric car conversion – using an electric car conversion kit to turn any car (such as a Honda or Toyota) into a running electric vehicle. You can put an electric car motor in almost any small car, although it is more difficult with larger vehicles. www.drivingthefuture.com is a website dedicated to information about electric powered car and vehicle purchases, conversions, and upkeep; this is a good place to further research your purchase. Your best bet may be to buy your car first and then hire a mechanic to make the electric car conversion, putting an electric car motor into your vehicle, although this can also be quite expensive.
Despite the big oil interference, there are still electric car manufacturers out there – the Honda electric car, for example, or the new EV car which actually fuels your car from solar panels on the rooftop. There are even a few electric sports car dealers, although these generally run in the very high price range.
