Electric vehicles have indeed become one of the increasingly popular transportation alternatives worldwide. Electric cars are considered a mainstream transportation option and are regarded as the ‘car of the future’. Yes, not only do they solve the problem of fossil fuels as a non-renewable energy source, but electric cars are also considered environmentally friendly.

The reason why electric cars are considered environmentally friendly technology is still a topic of debate, but generally, it is due to energy use and disposal. To provide a more practical overview, here are the reasons related to the environmentally friendly technology of electric cars.

Safer exhaust emissions

Cars with electric technology do not have exhaust pipes. The components of the car are made without exhaust pipes because electric cars do not emit exhaust gases. Indeed, there are still emissions from tire and brake usage, but these electric-powered vehicles are relatively safer for maintaining air quality free from fuel pollution.

Electric cars are also considered capable of minimizing greenhouse gas emissions, thus reducing the carbon footprint and saving the ozone layer. This can help minimize global warming, which is largely triggered by vehicle pollution. Not only that, but the pressure on the health system will also decrease due to better air quality.

Easier engine maintenance

Electric cars also require less maintenance. You only need to take care of the brake components and replace the car battery. Most electric cars also come with battery warranties measured in years, so you don't have to go back and forth to the workshop too often.

Electric cars also have very few moving components in the engine system. Therefore, there are not too many components that need to be repaired, allowing you to save time and costs.

Reducing noise pollution due to being quieter

While conventional vehicles often cause loud noise on the roads, electric cars are different. You will not hear the loud noise pollution from electric cars. Therefore, residential areas and city centers will feel quieter.

So quiet that every electric car is even required to have an Acoustic Vehicle Alert System (AVAS), which is an artificial sound system. This is necessary to alert pedestrians when an electric car is passing on the road.

Reducing traffic jams due to fuel filling queues

In Indonesia, filling fuel often results in vehicle queues, especially on busy weekdays. Traffic jams often occur due to queues at gas stations (SPBU). By switching to electric cars, traffic jams caused by queues at gas stations can be reduced, thus also decreasing emissions from idling vehicles.

Yes, charging electric energy can be done while parking the vehicle at home. This will certainly save time because you no longer need to queue to fill up fuel. In some countries, there are even offices that provide charging stations in parking areas. This makes it more convenient for electric car users.

Well, those are some reasons why electric cars are considered environmentally friendly technology. Although there are still some aspects that are continuously being developed, the pollution caused by electric cars is still considered better than the pollution produced by gas-fueled cars.

Now, the use of electric cars is also continuously being developed for better quality. If electric cars become available in Indonesia, will you switch to using them?
