History of the electric car

Electric cars popular in the mid-19th century and early 20th century, when electricitywas still chosen as the prime mover on the vehicle. This is because electric cars offer the comfort and easy operation that can not be achieved by the gasoline-engined vehicles at that time. Development of technology of combustion in an increasingly advanced, especially in the electric starter, gradually reduce the popularity of electric cars. This was coupled with the ability of a gasoline car can reach a greater distance,pengisiasn gasoline is faster, and charging infrastructure growing, coupled with mass production system applied by the Ford Motor Company, car prices make gasolineplummeted to half the price of electric cars. Electric cars became increasingly unpopular, and totally disappeared from the market, especially in markets such as the United States, fat on the 1930s. However, in recent years, more and more people are aware of the environmental impact caused by gasoline-fueled cars, plus gasoline prices are expensive and continues to rise, making electric cars back in high demand. Electric cars are far more environmentally friendly than gasoline cars, maintenance costs are cheaper, plus a more advanced battery technology. The drawback is the price of electric cars are still expensive. The current electric cars began to gain more popularity in some countries in the world after such a long time to disappear.

1890-1900s: early history
Before his time in combustion engines, electric cars have held many speed records and distance. Among all these records, one of the most famous was the record-breaking speed of 100 km/h (62 mph) by Camille Jenatzy on April 29, 1899. He used a rocket-shaped vehicle Jamais Contente, 10,588 with maximum speed km/h (6.579 mph). Before the 1920s, electric cars compete with gasoline-fueled cars.

Starting in 1896 to troubleshoot charging infrastructure is lacking, a battery replacement services company started by the Hartford Electric Light Company for electric trucks. Vehicle owner bought the vehicle from the General Electric Company (GVC) without the battery and buy a battery in Hartford Electric with battery system that canfit snugly. The owner of the vehicle will be charged a monthly service fee and travel costs per milnya for the cost of treatment truknya. This service is available from 1910 to 1924 and traveled a total distance of about 6 million miles. In 1917, a company in Chicago is running a similar service services for car owners the Electric Light Milburn also buy vehicles without the battery.

In 1897, electric cars started to be used as commercial vehicles in the United Statesas a fleet of electric taxis in New York City, taxi is made by Electric Carriage and Wagon Company of Philadelphia. Electric cars in the United States produced by AnthonyElectric, Baker, Columbia, Anderson, Fritchle, Studebaker, Riker, Milburn, and severalother companies in the early 20th century.

Although it has a low speed electric car, but it has many advantages compared to its competitors in the early 1900s. Electric cars do not cause vibration, electric car alsodoes not emit exhaust that smells, and not noisy compared to petrol cars. In addition, electric cars require no gearshift at a gasoline car this tarrif drove it in. The electric car of the period also used by rich people who use it as a town car, so the distancelimitations is not a major obstacle. Another plus, electric car also does not require great effort to turn it on, unlike gasoline cars that need a hand lever to turn on his car.Electric cars at that time was considered as a suitable car for the driver of a womanbecause of the ease in operating them.
In 1911, the New York Times stated that the electric car is the vehicle of "ideal" for a cleaner, more silent, and more efficient than a gasoline car.

1990s to present: the return of the public interest

Energy crisis in the 1970s and 1980s raises the return of people's interest will be electric cars. In the early 1990s, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) began pressing the auto manufacturers to start making cars that are efficient in low-emission, fuel baqhan, with the aim of eventually creating a zero-emission vehicle is like electric vehicles. In response, some manufacturers try to make their electric car each, like the Chrysler TEVan, Ford Ranger EV pickup truck, GM S10 EV pickup, the EV1, Honda EV Plus hatchback, Altra EV miniwagon and Toyota RAV4, EV. These cars eventually pulled its release in the United States market.

This Is The Sense Of Hybrid Cars
On Monday, January 27, 2006 posted by Tri Laksono Label: car

Hybrid cars or hybrids are vehicles that use two different types of technology to power source. This usually refers to a car that has a conventional gasoline engine and a battery as a power source. One source of this energy may be the main power source and the other serves as a backup, or the vehicle may be using a source in a particular situation and use the other in different situations.

Two Resources

Hybrid cars work in various ways. The most basic hybrid car powered by a gasoline engine but also save the charge a bank of batteries. Many hybrid cars also charge the battery using energy regeneration which is taken through the braking system. Hybrid cars will usually switch between gasoline and battery power is required. For example, when the existence of a minimal demand on the engine, the car may stop using petrol and switches to battery power. Some drivers of hybrid cars says that it can be unnerving to hear gasoline engine vehicles they die when they are driving.

History

This technology has been around since the car was introduced in the 19th century,because most of the vehicles use a combination of sources of energy to power. For example, most cars have a battery as a power source for accessories, such as car headlights. In the late 1990s, hybrid cars with more power, began to be considered as a viable and popular alternative to petrol vehicles.

Advantage

Hybrid cars are considered by many to be an excellent alternative to conventional vehicles because they can save gasoline. Many hybrid cars have gasoline efficiency of double accounting for petrol car models, which provide a significant cost savings for the user. In addition, hybrid cars are likely to be not too give pollution during use, because they burn less fuel and because the companies that build them tend to be aware of environmental pollution and make efforts to build a clean vehicle. Many jurisdictions provide special incentives hybrid car owners, such as tax relief and permission to use carpool lanes on the highway.

Advances In Technology

Some companies have stepped up further with the hybrid technology by building cars that can be plugged to charge the batteries that can power the vehicle for 150 miles (241 km) or more before it is necessary to switch to the gasoline engine. For most short trips, this allows the car to using only battery power. Many companies have also started to develop hybrid cars that use alternative energy sources, such as hybrid cars, hydrogen, with the hope of encouraging consumers to switch to more sustainable energy sources.
