Never in history have we needed to reduce our own expense’s, reduce consumption of precious natural resources, and reduce pollution more than right now.  One of the first things that comes to mind when reducing expense is transportation.  But some of the answers are just a little to extreme for us, such as: ride a bicycle to work, buy a hybrid car, ride a moped/scooter.  Work might be to far for riding a bike, a hybrid car to expensive, and a  Moped/Scooter has it’s problems, sometimes it is to cold, and storing them creates a problem with moisture in the fuel, hard starting after sitting a while, noisy and smelly for parking at work and in the garage.

Electric Vehicles can counter most of those problems.  Electric bicycles can travel upto 25 miles per charge and travel up to 20 mph without any physical exertion (in the rare instance of no more charge you can pedal them).  They can travel in the bike lanes and get through traffic quickly.  The newest designs look like Mopeds and can have windshields attached. 

Electric Mopeds (look like Vespa scooters) can travel up to 60 mph for up to 85 miles.  They have comfortable seating, and wind protection, and can seat two adults.  They need very little maintenance, no costly fuel, no pollutants, and are inexpensive compared to hybrid cars, and you can park them easily (sometimes companies let them inside the building since they are quiet and not smelly).   Best of all they are not using gasoline and polluting.

The newest technology has really made these vehicles a viable answer to today’s needs.  They have new highly efficient motors, batteries that are smaller but more powerful than ever, and new designs for today’s needs.  They are the future.
