Pure Electric Vehicles

Also, as mentioned before, “the two major hazards in today’s HEVs are nasty chemicals and high voltage (Allen, 2009, pg. 424).” The safety concerns are having negative impacts for electric vehicles because it sounds too dangerous to drive or sit in a EV which is going to kill the passengers when it hits a tree at 40 miles per hour. So, the safety issues must be the first thing that need to be solved by car manufactures soon. Safety concern is worse during the sale of hydrogen cars. a lot of news reported that hydrogen balloons exposure and caused heavy damages to human beings. And people are also afraid of exposure of hydrogen fuel cell cars.
However, some experts believe electric and hydrogen cars are safe for owning and driving, and they pull out the regulation of State of California. The regulation of hydrogen vehicles used for commercial purposes in California and it is the specific regulation that adopted into the California Code of Regulations. “All weighing and measuring devices intended for commercial use in California must be evaluated, tested and approved by DMS. (CDFA).” All the hydrogen vehicles have been evaluated before going public so it is safe to buy a hydrogen vehicle in California.

Getting Here

Pure electric energy, which is very easy to understand because it doesn’t need an engine. Electric vehicles (EVs) are equipped with at least one electric motors and several batteries. Because the development of electric vehicles hasn’t been so long as well as hybrid electric vehicles, no electric vehicles can carry a generator now. This is similar to laptops and desktops. Laptops have batteries which provide power when the computer is not plugged in outlets, but even desktops have large hosts, no one has put a battery into the host to power the desktop. Electric cars have limited storage of electricity and that leads to limited range and limited equipment and accessories. Even if electric car is fully charged, the electricity is not enough to drive the generator, so the car will run out of power before the generator create the first watt of electricity. According to my interview with Zach Clark in General Motors, improving the range of electric vehicles to 500 miles “is a huge improvement,” and “The longest range now is about 280 miles, and 500 is almost double it (Z. Clark, personal communication, March 18, 2017).” So the short range is a barrier of EVs.
