we've driven gas-powered cars for over 100 years. Once we nun out of all the oil, we can't take more. Is it time for a change?
Go electric
An electric car has an electric motor (发动机)that runs on batteries. Instead of filling with gas. an electric car owner get charged(充电). What happens when the batteries run down? You need to find somewhere to recharge. It can take a long time to recharge an electric car. That's not as easy to use as a quick stop at a gas station.
Hybrid(gas &electric)
A hybrid car has two engines—one uses gas and the other uses electricity. For short trips, it turns on batteries like an electric car. But if the batteries are low, the car can change to the gas engine. This can be a good choice for people who are worried about the batteries running out halfway through a trip. But when the car burns gas, it sill gives off waste gases like a regular car.
Solar power
A solar car has an electric motor that runs on batteries. But the batteries are only charged by the solar panels(面板)on the car's body. To charge up, you just need to park the car in the sun! But making solar panels and batteries that are powerful enough to move a car is very expensive. It might take much time before solar cars come to the public.
