Making a choice is becoming increasingly difficult, but at least you can have EVs, petrols, or hybrids that fit your lifestyle. We shall try to cut through the nonsense so that you may get on to the task of decision-making.

Electric Vehicles: Silent, Smart, and Ecological

A little story about metropolis cities taking over the talk of electric vehicles sweeping highways at 1000 km per hour with zero tailpipe emission. If you have your own charger or your home is a short walk away from a public charger, then EVs will present a far better choice for you since they run on cheaper fuel.

In other words, EVs are economical because electricity is cheaper than petrol, and its maintenance is relatively low since you will not be worrying about engine oil, clutch, or gears. However, for someone who spends most of their time driving in the city or has some fixed routes to travel every day, the expenses made from the purchase that cannot be returned might not seem worthy compared with the limitations of range for EVs.
