All you want to know about electric vehicles without daring to ask

In charge, humbly in a column of the car, it often happens that I asked if it was a good idea to buy an electric vehicle. Real desire or simple curiosity? And very quickly the questions are raining about the doubts that are still hovering, as well as the reliability of vehicles, long -term savings that could control blue energy, but also about the real or fantasy environmental impact. As for the battery, their construction and their recovery or not at the end of life. Questions that are commendable and that I often ask when I read objects that pink electric vehicles and those who paint them black. How to navigate?

Will the famous batteries often condemn “green” in the coming years? Are we going to exhaust the lithium reserves of the planet? Daniel Breton bypasses the question. Lithium? There are enough for many more years on the planet for many years, especially because if we are considering its extraction, we forget that we will find it simply by drawing underground salt water and on the surface and then letting it rest for months in large basins. Currently, 40 % of lithium found in batteries from these river basins, whose regenerated lithium speed is 90 % compared to only 50 % when extracted from the rock. And then there is a lot on the upcoming new generation of sodium batteries, which would significantly reduce lithium consumption. The myth just dropped.

In fact, the book is a guide. We don’t read it as a novel, but when the question comes up, you can refer to it without any problems.

Daniel Breton only sticks to reverse the negative perception that we should have from an electric car. In batteries, however, it also causes the conditions for the mining of the necessary cobalt and emphasizes that this is a humanitarian problem, as is the case in the Democratic Democratic Republic, where children are located in cobalt mines for suffering wages. The situation convicted of international amnesty for a long time. One wonders if this is also a good opportunity for manufacturers to get cobalt at low prices.

The fact remains that electric vehicles are an important economic problem for survival of European and North American manufacturers. These have been lagging behind in China, which is now the largest exporter of batteries found in the vehicles of European and North American branded vehicles. China is also a country that builds the most electric vehicles in the world, including affordable small vehicles that flood the Asian continent. Now they are trying to conquer Western countries, and therefore the increase in customs duties that the European Communities, the United States and Canada want to impose on Chinese vehicles, and possibly on equipment and batteries.

American manufacturers plunged into a towel with regard to the construction of small electric vehicles. The Japanese, Korean and European brands, which have always gave up in their catalog to go. The current trend is for views, compact or large, even very large. Scientists attack these impressive vehicles and have
He claimed at the time of the Mondial de l’oo in Paris to fight “supervision of a car road”. We are in France and use an English SUV for a sports utility vehicle, so it would seem too difficult to accept the name used here that you can see for a sports utility vehicle.
