What Are The Challenges Of Using An All Electric Car

What Are The Challenges Of Using An All Electric Car

Model X is the crossover vehicle from the Tesla Motors who manufacture electric cars. Tesla had earlier announced that the mass production of Model X would begin late 2013 but at the beginning of March, 2013 though a press release, the company has informed about the postponement of the production to 2014. There were no specific reasons mentioned by Tesla for this postponement but the market watchers have learned that Tesla has picked up few lessons from their Model S and wish to implement them in Model X.

Though we cannot strictly call them as demerits, these shortcomings do influence majority of the buyers' mindsets and would take them away. If someone can figure out the larger picture like global warming, alarming pollution levels, worsening of environment, extinction of species, explosion of new and ghastly diseases etc. these so-called drawbacks of all electric cars could easily be set aside. Nevertheless, the odds must be discussed in line with the favors and so let us see what are the major drawbacks of an electric car.

In today's pollution scenario, vehicles that run with fossil fuels are the largest and biggest contributors. They release many harmful pollutants into the atmosphere. On the other hand full electric cars do not have any tailpipe emissions and thus safeguard the environment by not releasing any pollutant. The only contribution of EVs would be through the power plants from which they draw the power. But if the power used by EVs come from wind power, hydro or solar systems then this indirect contribution also gets eliminated completely.

This electric SUV comes with the no-tailpipe and zero emission features that are standard with any tesla car models. The unique Tesla touch-screen dashboard would look more futuristic than Model S dashboard. It would be carrying all the best features and might offer little more.

Speed thrills and kills as well but even the peace lovers too would find an electric car being slow like a snail. Most of these cars would not speed more than 70mph and thus become sluggish to drive on highways. Researchers at electric car company like Tesla are working hard to design new electric cars which could overcome all these hurdles and the future of the EVs market depend on the success of these researches.
