With the world on the verge of a global fuel crisis, it becomes increasingly important to utilize eco-friendly vehicles. As Australians work harder to unite in the use of eco and reliable energy, electric cars become increasingly important. Fortunately, there have been astronomical leaps in technological advancements and applications, especially when it comes to electric cars. The ideal end-result is that more people will be able to travel or commute without concern for their emissions or the use of limited fossil fuels.
Reliable family cars
Once you have your children, you realise just how important it is to have a vehicle that is safe, reliable while still being economical. The 5-seater Renault Zoe features a 41 kWh lithium-ion battery with a charge time of 7.5 hours. When you drive the Renault Zoe, you can expect to reach up to 300 km before requiring a charge.
Alternatively, the Kia e-Nero is another electric car that seats five passengers. This vehicle has a sizable 60 kWh lithium-ion polymer battery, which only takes 8 hours to charge to full power. This is a good option for those of you who have to do the school run each day, as the larger battery means this car has a wider range of up to 260 km.
Luxury cars
Caring about the environment does not mean you need to give up your passion for fast cars. There are several luxury cars that you can power up in the comfort of your garage. The BMW i3 has a 42 kWh lithium-ion battery pack and has a range of up to 260 km and a top speed of 150km/h.
Another excellent option is the Jaguar I-Pace. This car with its 90 kWh Lithium-ion battery vehicle can cover an astounding 469 km at speeds of up to 200 km/h. Additionally, the built-in computer is designed to learn individual driving patterns and will adapt to suit the preferences of each driver who gets behind the wheel.
Electric cars are becoming affordable and versatile, making it easier for consumers to become less reliant on petrol or diesel.
