Historically, the environment wasn’t as much a consideration – in fact, it was pretty much ignored for the most part. Electric vehicles when they were first conceived were both limited in range and more expensive to build – ultimately making them second best to the gas-powered cars that were being built.
Today, electric vehicles are still expensive, but with so many grants now available from the government to aid buyers in owning an EV, the functionality and ease of ownership has now made the electric vehicle a popular solution to a growing economic problem – and has given us a step in the right direction towards supporting the natural world around us.
