Hybrid cars are operated by electrical power
for few miles or city driving and combustion
engine for highway driving and driving for
longer distances
Car battery
Battery life, battery energy, battery power
and battery costs are factors needed to be
considered
Lithium Ion batteries are commonly used
in electric cars
Carbon dioxide emission
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emission rate of petrol or
diesel car is 100 to 150 grams per kilometre
EVs emit only 50 grams per kilometre
Electric Vehicles
27 million plug-in battery powered
vehicles (PHEVs) and battery electric
vehicles (BEVs) will be sold by 2020
and over one billion by 2050
CO2 emissions cut by 10 gigatons (IEA)
