Air pollution -EVs do not produce any tailpipe emissions. They are cleaner than conventional vehicles, even when power-plant emissions are included. If battery recharges using renewable energy sources like wind, solar, or hydropower, they cause no air pollution at all.
Global-warming pollution - As with air pollution, electric power plants are the only source of global-warming pollutants from EVs. When EVs recharge using renewable energy sources, they do not cause any global warming emissions at all. Even if EVs are recharged using fossil fuels, they can cut global warming emissions reasonably.
Costs - EVs cost significantly more than gasoline vehicle, mostly because the battery packs. Higher vehicle prices are partially offset by the fact that fuel costs for battery electrics are about one-third those of a gasoline-powered vehicle. And because EVs have fewer moving parts than gasoline cars, they require less maintenance.
Performance - To the driver, EVs offers a quiet, smooth, and high-performance driving experience. The first-generation EVs had a real-world driving range of 50 to 80 miles. Battery advances now permit EVs to travel over a 100 miles on a charge, with future increases still possible.
