Electric cars rely solely on batteries for their power. The most important function of an electric car battery is running the electric motor. This means that the battery in an electric car has to be able to last for a long time and not take too long to recharge. While the batteries that are in electric cars currently on the market are not as efficient as everyone would like, some serious improvements are being made to change this.
