Malley Electric, Inc.  (2011) Electric vehicles (EVs) are propelled by an electric motor (or motors) powered by rechargeable battery packs. Electric motors have several advantages over internal  combustion engines (ICEs): ELECTRIC CARS, THE WAVE OF THE FUTURE Energy efficient. Electric motors convert 75% of the chemical energy from the batteries to power the wheels—internal combustion engines (ICEs) only convert 20% of the energy stored in gasoline. Environmentally friendly. EVs emit no tailpipe pollutants, although the power plant producing the electricity may emit them. Electricity from nuclear-, hydro-, solar-, or wind-powered plants causes no air pollutants. Performance benefits. Electric motors provide quiet, smooth operation and stronger acceleration and require less maintenance than ICEs. Reduce energy dependence. Electricity is a domestic energy source. As we look toward the future, the electric automobile is quickly become a reality. Two thing to think of: 1.) What size is your homes electrical service? 2.) Generator Back-up needed for power outage?
