Abstract

This work presents a study with the objective of showing the electric car and its advantages and disadvantages. Initially, some concepts are shown to contextualize and familiarize ourselves with the object of study, the electric car. Subsequently, questions about the Brazilian energy matrix and why it is favorable to introduce electric vehicles in the country are addressed. Finally, there was a comparison between electric cars and common cars (combustion) showing the costs of each one and its real cost-benefit.
