Best Answer

Because the owners of oil companies are extremely rich, and wish to become richer. Electric cars would put them out of business, so they simply pay the people who wish to produce electric cars a large amount of cash, and in return they don't make them. Otherwise we would probably all have electric cars already.

Why is the gas car more efficient then electric?

First, petroluem based products are relatively easy to utilize in various ways including gasoline powered automobiles. Current electric technology hasn't solved the distance problems with electric cars. About 90 miles or so per charge doesn't compare well with gas powered vehicles that can go 350 to 400 miles on a tankful of gasoline. Also there are few places to recharge your electric car on the highway and it takes 2 to 3 hours per charge. A gasoline powered vehicle can be filled in about 5 minutes and be off and running again.LAst but not least...while electric vehicles may eventually reduce the amount of foreign oil we need to import, the green value is not true. Producing the batteries for an electric vehicle has a much greater carbon foot print than building a gas powered vehicle.

Hybrid Car Benefits?

Hybrid cars have become very popular for several reasons. Hybrids are a combination of an electric powered, clean energy motor and a gasoline engine. While this does not bring emissions down to zero, it is a great improvement over standard gasoline cars. Hybrids also get much better mileage than both purely electric and purely gas cars. This means a happier, fuller wallet for hybrid car owners. There are even incentives to own or buy a hybrid car.
