Know how Electric vehicle is different from IC engine

 A portable power supply has become the lifeline of the modern technological world, especially the Lithium-ion Battery. Imagine a world where all cars are driven by Induction motors and not Internal combustion engines. Induction motors are far superior to IC engines in almost all engineering aspects, additionally being more robust and cheaper. 

Another huge disadvantage of IC engines is that they only produce usable torque in a narrow band of engine RPM. Considering all of these factors, induction motors are definitely the perfect choice for an automobile. 




    What is the difference between an IC engine and an electric engine?

    Why are Electric cars better?

    An electric car is a car that is propelled by one or more electric motors using energy stored in rechargeable batteries. Some diesel models claim beyond 700 miles on one tank, some models up to 1,000, and although very few people will ever have the discomfort of driving that far on one trip, electric vehicle range is still the topic that needs addressing to entice more people to reduce their local emissions. 

    Ev's average is somewhere around 300 miles from one charge, a huge leap forward from a barely triple figure of the past, but a far cry from the modern-day types of diesel that can achieve more than double this. 

    How do Electric cars have a connection with Solid-State Batteries?

    Arrangement of Batteries in series and parallel 

    Taking the example of the Tesla cell, it has a voltage between 3 - and 4.2. These cells are called solid-state batteries and they are having a structure like normal batteries.

    Many such Tesla cells are connected in series and in a parallel fashion to form a model. 16 such models are connected in series to form a battery pack in a Tesla car. Thus it forms a big battery on which the Tesla car runs. To know more about Solid State Batteries[Click Here]

    Who is working on SSB (Solid State Batteries)?

    Another world leader in battery power devices is Dyson famed for its vacuum cleaners and hair products. Dyson is the head of all competition when it comes to consumer electronics. 

    The company had previously announced the plans to build its own electric car testing for 2021 launch the plan was scrapped last, and the company still promises to be working on advancing their batteries technology, but so far its car project is pushed back it is not entirely canceled.

    And many companies are working on it but to the overheating of batteries, they are lagging.

    How do Electric Cars have an advantage?

    We're told that electric cars are the future. Petrol and diesel cars will be banned in the UK by 2030, and many European and American countries are following suit. 

    India also is in the race for electric cars and many automobile companies are on the verge to launch their models. Likewise, Tesla's electric car works on a total electric solid-state battery which is the showstopper in the automobile sector for its different approach to satisfying the need of people and care towards nature. 

    To take human life more towards the future. Tesla always comes up with innovative ideas for electric vehicles. 

    Conclusion

    Compared to Internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles electric cars are quieter have no exhaust emissions and have lower overall emissions. Many electric car companies want to launch their own electric cars but they are still advancing in their batteries. 

    However, the constant power supply for an induction motor is the real barrier to achieving the induction motor to revolutionize the automation industry.

    The market for electric vehicles will be more significant in India in the future than ever seen before.
