Kapanlagi.com - Since its release a few years ago, the presence of electric cars on the streets of the capital city has been increasing. Many automotive industries have also released the latest electric cars to indulge consumers.

Electric cars themselves have several advantages compared to fuel oil. This year, 2022, is the perfect moment to switch to electric cars.

This is because several government policies regarding the use of electric cars have been issued and public facilities are adequate for electric car drivers. So what are the reasons why you need to consider switching to electric cars?

Environmental damage and climate change are major challenges for humanity worldwide. Environmental pollution and carbon emissions worsen the situation if left unchecked.

In this situation, electric cars are environmentally friendly vehicles. Unlike vehicles fueled by oil, electric cars do not produce pollution due to minimal combustion in the engine.

2. Save on Operational Costs

In addition to being environmentally friendly, electric cars are also wallet-friendly. This is because the operational costs are lower compared to fuel-powered cars.

One charge of an electric car can be 50% less than refueling with gasoline. Some electric cars even claim to have a range of over 300 kilometers on a single charge. Interestingly, the cost of charging the electric car battery only requires around Rp 75,000 per 120 kilometers.

3. Easy Maintenance

Electric cars have a simpler engine compared to fuel-powered cars. While fuel-powered cars require lubrication and combustion maintenance such as radiator oil, electric cars have a different system.

This is what makes maintenance of electric cars easier and less costly. Routine vehicle servicing can be done when the electric car has traveled 10,000 kilometers.

4. Quiet Sound

Comfortable driving is one of the advantages of electric cars. Unlike oil-fueled cars, you don't have to worry about noisy sounds or vibrations when accelerating at high speeds.

Electric cars are known for having a silent engine, especially when driven with a full battery. This also makes the driving experience more comfortable.

5. Having Performance that is Comparable to Regular Cars

Not inferior to oil-fueled engines, electric cars also have tough and agile performance on the road. The more agile engine acceleration optimizes combustion, so the speed generated does not quickly drain the power.

See, there are so many reasons why 2022 is the right moment to switch to electric cars. When will it be your turn to switch to an electric car?
