Electric Car Revolution: Gaining Exposure to Cars
- 8 years ago
Electric vehicles may have been commercially available since the 1800s, but Henry Ford’s mass-produced Model T pushed them to the backburner.
But with batteries becoming cheaper and more advanced, electric vehicles have experienced a renaissance since the early 2010s.
Nissan Motor Co.’s LEAF is by far the most popular electric vehicle in the United States with a cost of less than $25,000 after incentives, followed by General Motors Co.’s Chevrolet Volt and Toyota Motor Co.’s Prius.
Lately, Tesla Motors’ Model S has taken the world by storm with its luxury sedan.
The company’s plans to introduce a more affordable car has inspired hope for an all-electric future.
