When one is about to buy an electric car, considering the pros and the cons is vital. Electric cars have both, as any other thing, so let’s take a quick look at them.
What would some of the advantages be?
Cheaper operating costs
Lower per-mile fuel costs because electricity is cheaper than gas
Silence is Golden
Lower maintenance costs because there are fewer moving parts
Recharging Your Battery Pack at Home
Powertrain is under warranty for longer than most gas engines (at least eight years/80,000 miles
Zero Tailpipe Emissions
Can be more fun to drive than gas cars because electric power has continuous torque
What about the disadvantages?
Range
Costs more than equivalent gas cars, but federal and state tax credits, plus direct rebates, reduce cost
Charging
Typical range of only 75 to 100 miles
The high price
Long Recharging Time
Popularity has made availability of public charging stations a challenge in some areas
Added cost of in-home charge
Worth the price?
Now you make the decision!
