Abstract

The wide use of electric vehicles seems to be a wise choice to 0the environment. However, there are multiple factors associated on how to develop electric vehicles. We use charts and statistical analysis to draw the conclusion that developing electric vehicles in the region with traffic congestion would be highly beneficial. Although the initial cost for widely using electric vehicles is much higher than gasoline vehicles, the long-term benefits are obvious, such as the reduction of air pollution and non-renewable energy consumption.
