Alternatives to Charging Electric Cars
2
Not all electric cars require outlets to plug
into for a re-charge.
3
Of course, there exists the hybrids, which
commonly mix electrically powered engines with
internal combustion engines.
4
However, main stream electric cars still require
the ability to obtain a charge.

Countries Implement Different Methods for
Re-Charging Electric Cars
6
Elon Musk with Tesla Motors has helped produce a
mechanical snake-like device that can connect
with Model S brands of electric cars.
7
The recognized advantage of this contraption
includes the automatic ability to start a charge
in case the owner forgets or something similar.
8
Alas, the unique charging station remains
experimental.
9
Elon Musk only revealed the operational capacity
of the automaton via Twitter.
10
Still, it could prove as a useful invention one
day.
11
Qualcomm conducts races by the Formula-E design
of vehicles.
12
To keep the electric cars perpetually full of
energy, coils exist in two different locations
beneath certain stretches of roads and in the
bottom sections of the automobiles.
13
As long as the coils from the two elements stay
close enough to each other, an electromagnetic
field provides a constant re-charge while the
cars maintain constant motion.
14
Britain presently experiments with test roads
that employ the same notion as Qualcomms race
tracks.
15
The difference between the two persists in the
fact that Britains re-charging affects common
road vehicles instead of those meant for racing.
16
South Korea also established a stretch of
highway that re-charges a fleet of electric buses
in a good display of efficiency.
17
From Germany, the Fraunhofer Institute has
developed a method of not only wireless
re-charging, but its system allows for the
dispersion of excess energy to prevent the
occurrence of power surges in an automobile.
18
Another Type of Vehicle That Could Rival the
Electric Car
19
Different varieties of automobiles prevail
against the trend of relying on just internal
combustion with gasoline or diesel.
20
Last year in 2014, French car manufacturer
Peugeot showed a unique hybrid that combined the
efforts of air and gas together.
21
Apparently, the vehicle can reach above 110
miles per gallon.
22
A hydraulic motor powers movement when using
pressurized air, and the system re-charges itself
whenever the driver decides to apply the brakes,
which re-fills the compression tanks.
23
Urban areas permit the continuous use of the air
driven feature.
24
Longer travels might require an intertwined
mixture of the two techniques to add mobility
though.
25
Peugeot expects to debut the unique hybrid in
the European market around the year 2020.
26
Finally, there endures another spin off.
27
Hydrogen vehicles behave like electric-only
automobiles.
28
Its distinction arises in the efficiency of the
chemical reactions in the battery.
29
At any choice, electric cars and hybrids allow a
variety of ways to diversify on how to fuel or
charge a modern vehicle.
