Electric cars are vehicles that are powered entirely or partially by electricity, using electric motors instead of internal combustion engines. These vehicles typically use rechargeable battery packs to store electrical energy, which can be replenished by plugging into an electric power source. Electric cars are known for their lower emissions compared to traditional gasoline or diesel vehicles, contributing to reduced air pollution and lower greenhouse gas emissions. They come in various types, including battery electric vehicles (BEVs), which operate solely on electricity, and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), which combine an electric motor with a conventional internal combustion engine. Electric cars are gaining popularity due to advancements in battery technology, increased charging infrastructure, and growing environmental awareness among consumers.
