With our nanotechnology, electric cars would be able to increase their range dramatically with just five minutes of charging, which is on par with the time needed to pump petrol for current cars. Chen expects that a new generation of fast-charging batteries will hit the market in two years.

That suggests Lamborghini sees a prosperous future for the V12 despite the imminent banning of petrol-burning ICE in some parts of the world. Electric motors, on the other hand, are usually upwards of 90 percent efficient. So the front-drive all-electric performance of the LB744 should be respectable.

Several countries, ranging from China to the United Kingdom, have proposed banning the sale of petrol and diesel cars over the next twenty years and some as early as 2025. So it is pretty clear that the future of personnel transportation would be electric. Electric trucks, for example, eliminate trips to the petrol station.

Proponents believe such a car could be easily refuelled with hydrogen and assumed it would have greater range than a pure all-electric car. Little seems developed in any wide commercial sense and certainly not to the extent of the pure electric car. So why haven’t FCEV becoming as prolific as other electric cars?

Home charging does take longer of course but with most cars sitting idle 90% of the time this isn’t an issue for the majority of people. Plug and forget – takes all of ten seconds and no smelly petrol stations to contend with and so much cheaper to fuel (around a quarter to a third the cost of petrol for equivalent distance).

When most of us consider ways to reduce carbon emissions in the transportation sector, we immediately think of electric cars or vehicles in general, and in that case, we are right to a greater extent.  As we have quoted several times electric cars are great but battery-operated electric cars have a few disadvantages as well.

Electric motors have higher efficiency rates compared to internal combustion engines, which waste a significant amount of energy as heat. EVs convert a higher percentage of electrical energy from the battery into actual propulsion, resulting in less energy waste. A petrol car has an efficiency of 28%.
