Besides, the electricity utilized for charging the battery is not always produced from a renewable source.
Overloaded batteries:
Today we use ample electronic devices in our vehicles. Though these tools are vital part of the car, it consumes huge quantity of power. This host of electronic gadgets in case of the electric vehicles will quickly drain the battery cutting the vehicle range. Latest battery pack is needed for compensating the loss that is taking place owing to the functioning of these gadgets.
Range:
Compared to conventional vehicles, electric ones have half the range of mile making it ideal for the long distance travel thus restraining its usage to short distance and city travelling. More R&D is needed for building stronger and lighter battery offering better range and infrastructure too requires to be made for charging battery quickly akin to the fuel filling stations.
Weight:
As there is no alteration with respect to the car’s body weight, the battery weight however is crucial making this a drawback of the electric car.
