Internal combustion vehicles will always hold a place in car enthusiasts' hearts.
Nothing beats the roar of an internal combustion engine set free.
But, we’re slowly witnessing the demise of the gasoline-powered car for everyday use.

Check out this article to discover the four advantages electric motors have over traditional gas-powered engines.
Gasoline engines have tons of moving parts that must function correctly to propel the vehicle forward.
All of these parts need to work in perfect harmony just to get the vehicle moving.

This obviously creates a scenario where if any of these parts fail, you’re stranded.
One of the culprits is friction, especially as oil begins to wear down over time.
This means that routine maintenance costs for an EV will be reduced compared to a gasoline-powered car.

Routine maintenance for EVs is definitely less involved.
The torque curve will seem almost artificially generated compared to an internal combustion vehicle’s torque curve.
This instant torque, combined with AWD, is why performance EVs are such monsters off the line.

It’s also why the quickest accelerating production vehicle (Model S Plaid) is an EV.
This system is by far the most advanced AWD system ever fitted on a vehicle.
However, this system has enormous limitations.
But the Rivian R1T has none of these setbacks.
While at the same time, they also work amazingly well on the road.
This is an inherent advantage of the electric motor.
Electric Motor’s Versatility Make Them Standout
Electric motors are incredibly versatile.
No wonder many say that electric cars are the future of mobility.
