It seems that the major influencers (government, communities and professionals) are really determined to make the year 2011, the starting point for the real launch of the electric car.
French manufacturers are even looking to enter the market before the end of 2010 several models of electric cars.
The Central Public procurement (UGAP) is preparing to make 2011 a bid of about 50,000 electric cars.
If all this continues, 2011 will be truly the year of the electric car, but only for a large customer accounts (administrations, businesses and local government).
But for the general public, what will happen exactly?
Despite the willingness of policy makers, to install once the electric automobile in our environment, it would be wiser, he seems to wait another 2 or 3 years before we seriously consider purchase.
For several reasons:
1. The acquisition cost is too high
2. The purchase cost of the battery and its still limited autonomy of the battery
3. The lack of infrastructure to accommodate electric cars.
• The cost of acquiring an electric car is still high today. It takes about more than 17,000 € (state aid deducted). It's expensive for a car whose speed is limited (less than 100km / h) and reduced autonomy (160 kms).
· The battery life of an electric car is still low. For a trip from Paris to Marseilles, for example, an electric car will be charged 4-5 times before reaching its destination. It is a huge constraint Valeo consider easing in 2011 by reducing consumption by 35%.
• For the electric car really takes hold on the European and especially French, it is vital that it can have an adequate infrastructure, suitable to accommodate both in town and on major roads. France, she plans to install 1 million points of supply by 2015 and just over 4 million in 2020.
In contrast to these teething problems, the electric car has undeniable qualities just waiting to be recovered when these handicaps are gone and especially his average purchase cost will be affordable. This will be a real boost for the automotive household budget.
What would you be able couvrir1000 kms with a electric car for under 13 €?
How about having a car with an efficiency of around 80% against 30% for a combustion engine?
What would you be able to contribute, through the electric car, the pollution control (0% CO2) and noise?
All told, the electric car is technically a viable option that could allow modern man to reconcile the imperatives of travel, travel fast and his quest for a healthier environment.
