When the temperature is close to freezing, electric cars will lose some range because the battery is less efficient. This also happens to cars with internal combustion engines. However, there are steps you can take to make your EV more efficient in cold weather and reduce the effects, such...
Tesla owners run into battery charging trouble in Chicago's bitter cold Electric vehicles, or EVs, are known for losing efficiency in cold weather, an issue that Consumer Reports investigated last year due to concerns about significant variations in how different electric cars held up in cold weat...
Electric vehicles have been around for a long time, despite the fact that the overall population imagines that electrically controlled vehicles are an ongoing creation. This is on the grounds that just as of late, EV’s have been considered as conceivable options in contrast to vehicles with gas...

Electric Vehicles How Good Are EVs in the Cold? I Drove in the Arctic to Find Out Misconceptions remain around EV driving. In northern Sweden, I saw just how good they really are in frigid temperatures and even driving across a frozen lake. ...
Old or damaged batteries may not hold a charge as well as new batteries, resulting in longer charging times or even an inability to fully charge. Imagine you are trying to fill a leaky bucket. Electric vehicles use lithium-ion batteries, which degrade faster when depleted than when fully ...
It’s called regenerative braking, and it works by reversing the flow of energy: The vehicle’s slowing wheels turn the electric motor, which channels energy back to the battery. An EV tells you when the batteries are low on power. Just like a conventional gas-powered vehicle, an EV will...
Body farms are teaching scientists how to study the ground around human remains for evidence -- soil acidity can indicate how long a body has been leeching fluids into the Earth. What's more, forensic anthropologists are learning to pay heed to the effects of weather and environment on ...
Although the trees used to make new paper are a renewable resource, old-growth forests are often chopped down to make room for the pulpwood trees, which are quickly planted and harvested to make paper. Recycled paper results in a significant net savings in terms of water and energy used, ...
