The "safety tests" you keep showing over and over are idiotic. They have nothing to do with real life. I have been driving for sixty years, I have never been rear ended at high speed. Only 5% of fatal accidents are rear end collisions, according to the government's own data. Real car collisions are completely different from these tests. They are probably doing this to meet the absurd NHTSA "safety" test. Don't be taken in.
Nope, it demandes a lot of energy to refine oil into gasoline. plus the energy wasted in heat on gasoline cars. In your average gasoline car you only use 30 percent of the potential energy from the fuel to move the car and run its electronics the rest is bacically wasted in heat. In an electric car you use 80 percent of the energy from your outlet onlu 20 percent is wasted on charging the batteries and from friktion in the motor.
no an electric car drains a lot of energy to charge the battries that energy have to come from some were if it comes from ur house then ur electric bill will go up more then usual and trying to find out why its soo high also it means it pollutes more because of power plants using energy to power peoples homes and they are putting out wastes and heat
Yes if you use a normal car engine to generate the power, but you dont. A powerplant uses the waste heat to generate heating for the houses in most parts of Europ through a central heating network. Usually they are alot more efficiant than a car motor. In Denmark the windmils generates more energy than we need during the night, which means that if you charge your car during the night you get green energy. So it also depends on how you generate the electricity.
think about it this way, you must find the oil then bring drills in to tap it then build massive pipelines all using oil burning machines to build then put the oil on ship and ship it to america. and ships make more carbon then all cars. then refine it then truck it to the gas station and after that you waste 70-80% in your car just from the heat generated.
none of that is required for electric, if we make cleaner forms of electricity generation its leaps and bounds better then any oil product

@safetychoice So just because it's rare you think they should cease all safety development in that area?
Also, these tests are specifically for the new battery powered cars, where the placement of batteries may be a big safety concern.

you are right they do polute more because the car use more energy from some were

well thats true but all electric cars or any cars need a type of energy source the power battery car uses lots of energy to charge it up
ChrisBennett18 2 years ago
well you cant expect free energy! course it costs money to charge, nobody is sugesting that electric car is free to run.
your power bill will increase but its still cheaper and more efficient to run
lejink 2 years ago
yeah i know that i rather have a car that runs on water or something that doent cost as much to run
ChrisBennett18 2 years ago
not if its made in a windfarm or hydro power
