Electric cars are widely popular in Europe. Unfortunately Australia is a little bit behind on that trend
But one of the problems with the electric cars is that people do not consider them strong or fast enough.
Electric cars have a poor image of being slow, inefficient, but, yes, sustainable and eco-friendly.
However, this perception might change.

There is now a new initiative, taking electric cars to a whole new level. Formula E holdings came up with the initiative to create electric car races.
The developers believe that showing people the roaring fast performance of a car that is 100% eco-friendly will change their attitude towards electric cars. The cars are designed to reach the speed of 320km/h
The challenge of this initiative is in the battery restrictions. In order to keep the weight of the car to a minimum, the battery is not capable of holding the power for a full 60-minute race. So the plan is that at the pit stops, instead of the mechanical adjustments the driver will switch cars.
The CEO of Formula E Holdings is convinced that the future of our cities lies in electric powered motors. The company promotes clean mobility and sustainability.
