Electric Car Early History
• Invented between 1832 and 1839 by Robert Anderson
• storage batteries were improved in 1865 and 1881
Electric Car Middle years
• Disappeared by 1935 until the 1960s
• Developed to reduce pollution and dependence on foreign oil
• Personal vehicles top speed of 45mph with a range of 50 miles

Series Hybrid
•The gasoline turns a generator
•The generator can charge the battery or
• The generator can power the electric motor
• The gasoline engine never directly drives the vehicle

Parallel Hybrid
•The gasoline powers the engine
•The batteries supply power to an electric motor
• The generator can power the electric motor
• Both the gasoline engine and the electric motor can turn the transmission

Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle(PHEV)
• Recharge through the grid
• 9 cents/kwh = 30mi for 81 cents = 75 cents/gl of gasoline
•If all vehicles were plug-in hybrids we would cut our oil needs by 55%
