Electric vehicles offer several benefits, including:

• Zero emissions: EVs produce no tailpipe emissions, helping reduce air pollution.
• Lower operating costs: Electricity is cheaper than gasoline or diesel, and EVs have fewer moving parts, leading to reduced maintenance costs.
• Quiet operation: EVs run more quietly than traditional vehicles, reducing noise pollution.
• Energy efficiency: Electric motors are more efficient in converting energy into vehicle movement.

The range of electric vehicles varies depending on the model, battery capacity, and driving conditions. On average, electric scooters can travel between 30-80 km (18-50 miles), while electric motorbikes can cover 100-200 km (62-124 miles) on a single charge. Larger electric cars may offer a range of 200-400 km (124-248 miles) or more.

Charging times depend on the type of charger and battery capacity:

• Level 1 (standard home outlet): 8-12 hours for a full charge (mainly for electric bikes and scooters).
• Level 2 (home or public charging station): 4-6 hours for a full charge.
• DC fast charging: Can charge 80% of the battery in 30-60 minutes for some electric motorbikes and cars.

Most electric vehicle batteries are designed to last for 5-10 years or more, depending on usage and maintenance. Battery performance gradually decreases over time, but manufacturers often offer warranties covering 5-8 years for battery replacement.

Electric vehicles have fewer moving parts than traditional vehicles, resulting in lower maintenance needs. Routine maintenance includes:

• Checking and replacing brake pads (less frequently due to regenerative braking).
• Tire maintenance.
• Battery health checks.
• Software updates.
