  • Resumen
    • The article looks at the development of electric cars, as of 2014. It notes the gasoline-powered internal combustion engine dominated vehicle design in the 20th century. It notes electric vehicles are far more efficient and are beginning to emerge. It discusses the drawbacks of electric cars for ordinary consumers, including limited range, and discusses strategies for addressing them including improvements in battery technology and battery swapping stations. The author suggests a tax on carbon and other fossil fuel emissions as a way to incentivize the transition to less polluting vehicles. Alternative vehicle fuels such as liquid natural gas are also discussed.
