Pollution due to vehicles is one of the main concerns of this world. One of the solutions to reduce carbon emission and economic issues is electric cars, which is more attractive in this world. Studies have shown that electric vehicles are better for the environment and have lower emissions of gases and pollutants than gasoline or diesel vehicles, even if they make cars and generate the electricity needed to drive them. This chapter deals with the realities of electric cars and their impact on the environment. Inventors started their research about electric vehicles in the 1830s. The first electric car “Roadster” was introduced by Tesla motors in 2008. One of the main reasons for the development of alternative fuels and renewable fuel technologies is the energy crisis. In 1950s, the change was made because of environmental issues. As our nation is becoming industry oriented, the amount of gas emission is increasing tremendously every year and the environment suffers a lot. Although many detoxification and filtration methods are employed, the reduction in emission gas production plays a vital role in climate difference.
