Range anxiety is often quoted as the main barrier to electric vehicle adoption, but if the battery could be recharged in the same time it takes to refuel a conventional IC engine vehicle, much of that worry goes away. In addition, Li-C cells are free from rare-earth metals, are fully recyclable, and are not susceptible to the runaway events.

AC is the type of electricity that flows through power grids and into homes and businesses, including to power EV chargers. DC is the type stored in batteries. AC can be thought of as "low and slow" charging, while DC is very fast and powerful. Not every vehicle is compatible with DC fast charging.

Unlike traditional internal combustion engine vehicles that emit pollutants such as carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter, EVs produce no emissions during operation. The electric drivetrain is highly efficient in converting stored energy from batteries into motion, minimizing energy waste.

The power electronics are effectively a link that controls the flow of high-voltage energy between the motor and the battery. The power electronics convert the direct current (DC) stored in the battery into alternating current (AC). Meanwhile, a DC/DC converter supplies the onboard electronics with 12-volt power.
