.........But I will give a short version of EV advantages. If you read a sports car design book by Colin Chapman (as I have)....... in the book is a detailed explanation as to WHY a LOW center of gravity in an automobile is SO advantageous. For any given HP engine and any given brake system, the vehicle chassis with a lower Center of Gravity (COG) will accelerate faster and brake better than one with a higher COG.
........An EV will always beat a piston-type ICE vehicle in a zero-to-sixty race. It would be like the tortoise and the hare racing. The piston-type ICE vehicle has the hopeless disadvantage of having a HIGH COG - it also has inertia and high friction loss in the pistons going up just to reverse and go down (up and down wasting heat to high friction loss).
...........The EV uses a CIRCULAR TURNING HIGH INSTANTANEOUS TORQUE DC MOTOR, which accelerates the E-vehicle so rapidly - it appears like the piston-type engine vehicle is standing still.
...........Also, the EV needs no standard or automatic gearbox. It is easier to produce on a production line - so cost could come WAY down. The rotary motion of the E-engine means much higher RELIABILITY than an IC engine vehicle could ever HOPE for. And EVs will become lighter when lighter battery technology becomes available.
............How's that for advantages???????
