    The rise of electric vehicles is a global phenomenon. In the United States, there are more than 140,000 all-electric passenger cars and light trucks on the road. Many people don’t realize this has been a boon for the economy.

    As electric vehicle adoption increases, the demand for lithium-ion batteries and charging stations increases. Many people are now investing in this new technology, and they are also more interested in buying them. 

    It is an excellent thing for those who have invested time, money, and resources into developing these types of cars. 

    This article discusses how the rise in EV adoption has influenced the economy.

    1. Increase Charging Station Sales

    It has been a boon for companies that make and install charging stations. In the past, most electric vehicle owners charged their cars at home. However, as EV ownership increases, the demand for public charging stations increases.

    Many companies are now installing charging stations at their business or next to parking spots. It has led to significant increases in sales for these businesses and job growth. 

    This is because the current infrastructure cannot meet the needs of all-electric vehicle owners.

    1. Boost Growth in Gasket Industries

    Gaskets are made of soft materials that do not harden when they resist maintaining their shape while being compressed by pressure on both sides. A thin strip or ring fits two parts with close tolerances to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects. The rise of electric vehicles has created an increased demand for various gasket materials and designs. You can check https://www.epdm.co.uk/products/gaskets/ to learn more about gaskets in general. 

    A gasket is a crucial part of creating an efficient seal for the metalworking, as it can reduce the risk of corrosion and erosion. It also ensures that your face cuts are always clean with no grain showing through during installation or removal, especially since their surface may become rough over time without proper protection.

    Batteries are among the essential components of electric vehicles, and to ensure their performance, you have to use high-quality gaskets. Gaskets provide a tight seal between battery cells and protect them from moisture and other contaminants. They help keep the battery cool while it is in use. Choosing the right gasket can be critical to the overall performance of an EV battery system. Gaskets are also used in charging stations to prevent the escape of electricity. 

    1. Reducing Fuel Cost

    The rise of electric vehicles has also led to decreased fuel costs. Electric cars do not require gasoline or diesel to run. Instead, they rely on electricity from the grid.

    It has been a boon for consumers, as it has reduced the amount of money they have to spend on fuel each month. It has led to a decrease in the cost of goods and services. Businesses no longer have to factor in the cost of fuel when pricing their products.

    An electric car may be the perfect option for those looking for a more affordable way to get around. It is important to remember that running an electric vehicle may vary, depending on the battery and charging system used.

    1. Higher Demand for Windshield Wiper Blades

    Electric vehicles have windshield wipers just like traditional cars. However, electric car windshield wipers’ blades are different from gasoline-powered vehicles. It has led to increased demand for windshield wiper blades designed specifically for electric vehicles.

    Many companies are now producing windshield wiper blades, cleaner products. It has led to increased production and hiring activity from existing companies and new businesses opening up in this area.

    1. Low Maintenance

    The rise of electric vehicles has led to lower costs associated with owning and operating these cars. The low-maintenance nature of EVs means that there are no oil changes, tuneups, or other service procedures required for the vehicle to work properly. They do not have any parts that need oil changes or other maintenance checks. It contrasts to traditional gasoline-powered cars that require regular servicing to run effectively.

    It has led to a decrease in the overall cost of owning and operating an electric vehicle. It has freed up time for drivers to service their cars. You can use this time for other activities, such as spending time with family or friends.

    Electric cars also feature regenerative braking systems that help reduce wear and tear on brakes. It increases the lifespan of movement components and extends their functional life for many years to come.

    1. Tax Incentives

    The rise of electric vehicles has led to an increase in the number of tax incentives offered by governments worldwide. These cars produce fewer emissions than traditional gasoline-powered cars.

    It has led to a decrease in the cost of owning and operating an electric vehicle. In addition, it has encouraged people to purchase electric vehicles instead of traditional gasoline-powered cars.

    1. Create Job Opportunities

    The rise of electric vehicles has led to new job opportunities worldwide. These cars require a significant amount of labor to produce and distribute for consumers.

    It has led to an increase in overall hiring activity from existing companies and new businesses opening up that work specifically on producing, distributing, or selling parts for electric vehicles.

    1. Less Demand for Oil

    The rise of electric vehicles has led to a decrease in demand for oil. Oil is one of the main components used by gasoline-powered cars. There is less need for oil production and distribution companies to operate at total capacity. It has led to layoffs among many employees in the industry and decreased hiring activity from existing companies. There is now less demand for oil.

    This trend is likely to continue as electric vehicles become more popular. It will have a significant impact on the economy as a whole, particularly those industries that are closely tied to oil production and distribution.

    In summary, the rise of electric vehicles has significantly impacted the economy. The low-maintenance nature and increased tax incentives have encouraged consumers to purchase these cars over traditional gasoline-powered ones, leading to a decrease in demand for oil production and distribution companies as well as layoffs within that sector. New job opportunities have been created around producing and distributing electric vehicles, which is good news for the economy. For those interested in this type of car, it is essential to research the different batteries and available charging systems.

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
