Disadvantages of Electric Cars

Now we will look at some of the disadvantages of electric cars.

Disadvantages:


1. Recharge Points: There are not a lot of charging stations around as they are still in development and this could result in you being stranded on a long car journey.

2. Short Driving Range and Speed: They are limited by range and speed. They usually range 50-100 miles and then need to be charged again which can take a while.

3. Recharge Time: An electric car can take 4-6 hours to charge and you will need a dedicated power station for this which can be hard to find

4. Silent While driving: This can be a disadvantage as the car wont be heard when coming around corners and coming up behind other cars which can cause an accident.

5. Cities Facing Power Shortages: Cities already facing power shortages are not suited for the use of electric cars and it could hamper their daily power needs.
