Hydrogen cars

History of electric cars•Electric cars use older technology than gasoline cars and, in their late-19th-century infancy, they looked to set the rule in the world. The first electric car was built in 1834 and by 1900 some 38 percent of all cars were. But oil was cheaper and abundant and, in many ways, offered a better method of powering fast cars over long distances.

How do they work All cars—gas, electric, hydrogen, or using any other "fuel“ are essentially energy conversion devices: they turn potential (stored) energy into kinetic (movement) energy

•The gasoline engine is replaced by an electric motor.

•The electric motor gets its power from a controller.

•The controller gets its power from an array of rechargeable batteries.
