The transition to electric vehicles will provide significant benefits across energy, transport, public health, and infrastructure and industry development. For consumers, the running costs for an electric vehicle are far cheaper, and because they have fewer moving parts, maintaining an electric vehicle also costs significantly less. The rise of electric and hybrid vehicle technology is supported by governments and environmental organisations seeking to reduce emissions and improve energy storage technology.A transition to sustainable, zero emissions road transport also has the potential to have a positive impact on air quality.
