Electriv vehicles are considered to be less harmful to the environment than petrol and diesel vehicles. What prevents individuals from choosing electric vehicles? Discuss some ways to encourage people to buy electric vehicles?

Electric

vehicles

are an environmentally friendly alternative to diesel and gasoline cars.

However

, many people are discouraged from making the shift to electric cars because of their high

price

and the familiarity that many

drivers

already have with petrol

vehicles

. These obstacles can be overcome with the correct pricing model and information

the correct use of electric

. There are two reasons why

do not choose electric

vehicles

. The first reason is that they often have a particularly high

tag.

While

it may be possible to find second-hand petrol

vehicles

at a very affordable

price

, electric

vehicles

make use of recent innovations and technology, which results in them being much more expensive.

For example

, a low-range fully-electric Tesla will still cost around

dollars. The second deterrent is that many

drivers

already feel comfortable with their existing driving practices. They understand how to fill up on petrol, and they know when and where to get their

car

serviced. Being relatively new, electric

vehicles

are less straightforward: users might worry about how often they should be charging them or when and where to get them serviced. In light of these reasons, I would suggest two ways to encourage people to choose electric cars. First of all, the

price

needs to be lower.

This

is something

that is

bound to occur over time as the relevant technology develops and competition drives the prices down.

However

, governmental organisations can incentivise the shift through favourable grants and loans to

drivers

or even subsidies to producers in the short run. To address the issue of

drivers

feeling unfamiliar with the practice of owning electric automobiles,

this

too is likely to change in time as they become more common.

However

, to speed up

this

transition, electric

car

manufacturers can release clear statements and information about using an electric

car

properly.

This

is already being done by companies,

such

as Tesla, that make use of social media channels to explain how to look after their electric

vehicles

properly. In conclusion, I feel that the two main obstacles to buying an electric vehicle are actually likely to be solved over time without too much interference.

However

, to

further

encourage people to go electric, I would suggest that the government artificially lower the

price

, and electric

car

manufacturers focus on educating

drivers

on the best practices of owning electric

vehicles

.
