How Electric Vehicles Will Transform the Auto Maintenance Industry

Professor Acquires $1M Grant to Develop Superior EV Battery

Most developed countries plan to phase out traditional carbon fuel-powered vehicles for electric vehicles (“EVs”) over the next decade or two. As EVs run on clean, renewable energy, they produce zero emissions, which is in line with the governments’ long term plans to reduce carbon emissions. However, despite being relatively cheaper to fuel (charge) and maintain than traditional vehicles, most of the EVs on the market are way too expensive for the average consumer. So, even if they wish to switch over to clean energy, a large chunk of the population simply cannot afford it. To make them more affordable,…

3 Factors to Consider When Buying Second-Hand Electric Vehicles

Whether you’re a prospective vehicle buyer or already own a conventional vehicle, you have probably heard of electric vehicles.

Electric vehicles are set to phase out internal combustion vehicles over the next decade or two. Although the technology behind EVs is decades old, the industry is still…
