Introduction


Electric car, hydrogen car
Electric cars are being built a lot. They are inexpensive to run and produce. Their use is increasing. Hydrogen cars are not spreading to this extent, they are slightly less efficient. ∗ Various Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) are in the list bottom.

Charging options
Many charging possibilities and fast charging makes smaller batteries interesting. This has a positive effect on costs and thus on the attractiveness of electric cars.

Range
Electric cars with a range of 400 km or more are improving the acceptance of the technology. In the list corresponding cars are marked with "∗∗".

Aerodynamic rims and wheel covers
The aerodynamic rims and the aerodynamic wheel covers are a topic of discussion by electric cars. Aerodynamic rims reduce the Energy consumption by several percentage points. Reduced air turbulence reduces driving noise accordingly.

Recuperation and Braking Care
Recuperation feeds the braking energy back into the battery in the form of electricity. Accordingly, the brake discs are used less. To ensure that the brake discs function continuously, we recommend the regular removal of flash rust by "free braking".

Computer power consumption
In electric cars, computer power consumption is relevant. In some vehicles, the battery level decreases when the car is parked. The cause lies in the control functions and in the communication with the outside. When driving, we believe that digital rearview mirrors have a significant impact on power consumption. Power consumption increases with the quality of the images.

Used cars, new cars
We recommend that you take a good look at the used car market before changing your car. With a new car you can choose everything. The used car is immediately available, cheaper and often has accessories that you can afford to buy in this way. To our knowledge, the pricing is designed so that "they" can change the rental, leasing and exhibition cars every 3 years.

Chronology

March 1994"Micro Compact Car" presents two prototypes. "Eco-Sprinter" as a battery-electric vehicle and "Eco-Speedster" with a combustion engine. The Tridion vehicle cabin is developed under the "Smart" brand name. "Smart" produces that small vehicle from 1998 with a combustion engine and from 2012 with an electric motor.
