INTRODUCTION :-
• Electric vehicle are automobile, which are powered
by the electric engine and electric engine.
• The development of the electric vehicle is a very
perspective important process.
• EV’s are vehicle that are powered by an electric
motor instead of an internal combustion engine.
History :-

• The history of the EV’s began in the mid-19th

century.
• 1832: Robert Anderson invents a non-rechargeable
electric carriage .
• 1835: Thomas Davenport builds the first practical
Electric vehicle.
• 1976: General Electric was chosen to construct a
parallel-hybrid sedan, and Toyota built its first hybrid
car.
GERMAN ELECTRIC CAR, 1904.
The Importance of Electric vehicle :-

• Electricity is cheaper than gas.

• Electricity can come from renewable resources such
as solar and wind power.
• Electric cars pollute less than gas-powered cars.
• Electric cars are much more reliable and require less
maintenance than gas-powered cars.
• Cheapness in amount of fuel consumed .
• Help to reduce greenhouse emission.
Architecture of electric vehicle:-
Parts of electric vehicle :-

• Battery
• Charger
• Power controller
• Electric Motor: 1) Ac Motor
2) BLDC
• Clutch
• Transmission driveshaft
• Wheels
 WORKING:-
• The driver presses the accelerator
which in turn sends the signals to
the controller.
• When fully accelerated, maximum
voltage to the motor.
• On releasing the accelerator, no
voltage is supplied.
• Two potentiometer are connected.
• When both potentiometer shows
same deviation , voltage is supplied
further and car moves.
TYPE OF ELECTRIC CARS:-

• HYBRID ELECTRIC CAR

• Uses a small electric battery to support the internal
combustion engine.
• Provide increased fuel efficiency.
• Battery is recharge by both gasoline engine and
regenerative braking.
• Regenerative braking captures kinetic energy to
charge the batteries when the driver push the brakes.
• BATTERY ELECTRIC CARS:
• Battery electrical vehicles all electric.
• No internal combustion engine.
• needs large recharge time (7-8 hours).
• Car halts when the battery dies.
• In order to run 80 plus miles, it requires a large
battery that is, 18kWH to 36kWH.
ELECTRIC CARS IN INDIA:-

• Companies like Mahindra, Toyota have launched

electric cars in India.
• Mahindra launched the first model of EV Reva back
in the late 1990s.
• However efforts have been made to improve the
power and luxury of the car.
• In November 2011, Reva NXR was launched which
could run 160 km when fully charged.
LIFE SPAN OF ELECTRIC CARS:-

• Different type of electric cars have different life

spans.
• Battery EVs can run for 5 years or 1,00,000 miles
before disintegrated.
• The hybrid electric cars have longer life span due to
continuous recharging from the internal combustion
engines and batteries.
 COMPARISION :-
Parameter Electrical Cars Combustion Cars

Energy Electricity produced by By combustion of fossil

batteries. fuels and petroleum
Price Slightly higher due to Cheaper than that of electric
expensive batteries. vehicles due to cheaper
parts.
Pollution Doesn’t produce harmful Produce harmful carbon
emission and contributes emission therefore polluting
in clean air. the air.

Running Running cost is low due to High due to more number

cost lesser number of parts. of parts and replacement of
oils, etc.
ADVANTAGES:-

• Cheaper to run because of low rates of electricity than

petrol.
• Zero harmful emission, better for environment.
• Nearly 100% recyclable batteries.
• Reduces noise pollution.
• Can be recharged almost anywhere in urban areas.
Disadvantages:-

• Time required to recharge the batteries is more.

• Lesser charging stations.
• More expensive than combustion engine car.
• The batteries provided are quite heavy increasing the
net weight of the car.
POSITIVE OUTCOMES ON ENVIROMENT :-

• Electric cars contribute to cleaner air.

• Reduced carbon emission hence less air pollution.
• Produce 27% less carbon(monoxide and dioxide) than
combustion engine.
CONCLUSION:-

• Electric vehicles has reduced carbon emission

significantly in then area where it is used .
• It restores the balance of ecosystem to some extent .
• The future of Electric Vehicle is bright.
