Electric Cars: Challenges for Long-Term Use

In recent times, the electric vehicles have been hyped too much as future automotive, an eco-friendly and sustainable substitute for gas-powered cars. However, for me there few concerns about it, like the performance of electric cars over the long-term, including their resale value and the endurance of the lithium batteries.

• Resale Value of Electric Cars: One of the most significant worries for potential electric car purchasers is the uncertainty surrounding their resale value. Resale value plays major role during car purchase, as most people prefer cars that holds the purchase over longer run and electric car for that matter, doesn’t have any data on holding purchase value in long-term. Additionally, there is a significant difference among electric car models, making it difficult to determine a clear market value like new technology updates over years, degradation of battery life and reduced driving range.
• Longevity of Lithium Batteries: The most significant obstacles while opting for electric cars is the endurance of their lithium batteries over the years. No matter how good the lithium batteries are maintained, they have chemical characteristics of losing charging capacity over time. This can lead to faster battery draining, durability on rough roads and reduced driving range, which can be a significant issue for drivers who rely on their electric cars daily.

As electric cars continue to evolve, the car manufacturers should focus on making it more advanced and efficient in batteries, than making them more appealing to buyers with their pricing or increased range. To read more such articles, please feel free to check out “G R Team Sites”
