Is Tesla the future of electric cars?

One of my friends just recently bought a Tesla, and I’ve been thinking about doing the same. I want to look at all the options, but since it's one of the most established electric car brands out there, I think Tesla could be the way to go. Is Tesla the future of electric cars?

While Tesla did do a lot to bring
electric cars
into the mainstream, the future of electric cars depends on more than just Tesla.
Thankfully, many automakers have enthusiastically brought electric cars into their fleets, or have otherwise announced plans to discontinue production of gas-powered cars completely within a certain timeframe.
In order to really bring electric cars into the mainstream, a few things need to be prioritized, such as:
  • Making EVs more affordable and accessible
  • Expanding electric car charging infrastructure
  • Improving mining practices and battery recycling to be more sustainable
  • Developing new technology to improve energy density and increase charging speed
  • Improving the cost, weight, and efficiency of electric motors
A switch to electric-powered cars is part of a broader movement to shift to sustainable and green energy sources for all, and all automakers will need to get on board.
Driving an electric car is exciting—you’re helping the planet and getting in on the ground floor of a growing industry. If you are thinking of getting an electric car, you’ll want a
car insurance
plan that delivers great coverage at a great price.
