The history of the development of the battery car: It originated in the 1880s and was used as a private car, a heavy truck and an urban public transport vehicle. The low speed and limited charging mileage of battery cars are not disadvantages, but the advantages of no noise and low maintenance cost make them popular. Before 1920, battery cars competed with gasoline cars, and then battery cars began to decline because electric starters made gasoline-powered cars more attractive, and mass production made gasoline cars cheaper. In Europe, electric vehicles have been used as short-range freight vehicles. Since the 1970s, countries have regained interest in electric vehicles, especially due to the impact of not relying on foreign oil and environmental problems, resulting in repeated improvements in the speed and distance of battery vehicles. With the constant attention of the car energy and pollution issues, the continuous improvement of the battery car technology and the continuous expansion of the use, the future development of the battery car will be bright.
