An EV directly converts electricity into movement. This makes it far more efficient than a conventional car, which has to burn fuel (creating heat) and then converts that heat into motion. Unlike a conventional car – when an EV brakes, much of its energy is recovered and put back into the battery, so it’s available to help it accelerate again. In a regular car, the energy is simply converted into heat by the brakes and wasted.
Electric cars are FAR, FAR more energy-efficient than gas vehicles
