CannyScot's Day

By CannyScot

Zero emission electric vehicle

A dull, overcast but dry day.

Spent the morning preparing for a Children's Panel this afternoon. We needed to go to the Library and while there we noticed this electric car actually on charge. Dundee City Council have invested in 39 electric vehicles - 7 vans and 32 cars.

100% electric vehicles, otherwise known as “battery electric vehicles” or “pure electric vehicles”, are wholly driven by an electric motor, powered by a battery that can be plugged into the mains. There is no combustion engine.

As 100% electric vehicles rely entirely on electricity for fuel, they do not produce any tailpipe emissions. At present, most of these vehicles on the market typically offer a range of around 100 miles, though some offer more.

It seems it is the way to go in the future, especially for users who travel entirely within cities.
