Electric cars have been introduced for a while now and have been steadily increasing, What started out as the slow car that only ran a few miles before needing to recharge has become comparable to a normal car. Electric cars are the solution that some engineers have arrived at after trying to create products to limit green house gas emission. The cars run on electricity and not on gas which decreases the amount of greenhouse gas being released into the atmosphere. In the past the electric cars only hovered around 20-30 mph and could only run around 100 miles before needing to be charged at a gas station that charges electric cars. Now the new Tesla Model 3 electric car has been developed.
The new car is supposed to travel 215 miles before needing to recharge and can reach 0 to 60 miles in six seconds. That is a major improvement and pulls electric cars one step closer to gas cars. The benefits of running an electric car also includes the need to refuel. The time it takes to fully refill the car generally is 8-9 hours and unless you drive far everyday you won't even use up all the charged energy. With Elon Musk trying to introduce the electric car to the general public the car is priced at $30000 and is earning the company profit right now. Pre-ordering comes with an extra $1000 fee and the car is expected to be delivered sometime in 2017. This is a great new product.
I haven't really thought about buying an electric car so far but after finding out about the new car I want to buy one. I believe that electric cars will replace fuel driven cars in the future and with the rapid advancements in technology this might happen sooner than I thought. Just a few years ago I had been thinking how cool the electric car would be if it ran faster and longer. Now this has happened and that makes me expect even more advancements in the future.
