It is curious to observe that Brazil would be the best country to receive the electric car, due to the high potential for supplying clean and sustainable energy, with hydroelectric and wind power plants.
However, there is still a long way to go before this reality becomes a reality. Check below the biggest problems faced by those who have electric cars in Brazil!
The first major problem faced by those who own an electric car in Brazil is the lack of structure to spread electricity recharge points across the country. The supply of fuel stations with traditional options is even greater than electric charging points for cars.
This is a point that limits the circulation of users who purchase the product, making them hostages of certain locations and even the values of the establishments.
In Europe, for example, there are already more places where drivers can recharge their vehicles. However, the energy used there comes from plants that use coal or diesel, that is, it is “dirty”.
Therefore, the discourse of the electric car with clean energy, which is a possible reality in Brazil, is opposed to the process of Energy supply of European countries, which do not have sustainable processes for energy generation.
The second major problem with having an electric car in Brazil is that this item is expensive, precisely because of the innovative technology and vehicle configurations.
To get an idea, it will be difficult to acquire an electric car for less than 150 thousand reais, even considering the simplest models with the new technology.
But, in addition to the initial purchase cost, drivers need to consider again that the Brazilian market is not prepared to meet the electric car.
Thus, it is essential to put at the tip of the pencil how much will be spent to circulate with the vehicle. Even in large cities and metropolitan regions, access to charging points is less.
Likewise, the options for assistance with specialized professionals are limited, making the price more expensive, since the offer is smaller.
The electric car is a technology that needs to be adopted in the world, as it ensures more sustainability. However, it is still a product that needs encouragement and adaptation so that Brazilian cities can rely on electric cars.
