“To evaluate the popularity of electric vehicles with its benefits”. A case study on UK.

Furthermore, arrival of electric vehicles lead towards the job losses in oil industry and there is a
reason to expect that electrification of personal transportation that can drive job creation in the
host of industries.
Such advantage of electric vehicle helps the people in getting recovered from the diseases they
were suffering because of such problems they were facing earlier with the normal vehicles.
Therefore, reduction in such difficulties helped the people in living the normal life with disease
free health throughout their life. Electric vehicles have good performance as compared to the
normal vehicles because of the usage of elements and materials at the time of production of the

vehicle are very effective and efficient and thereby it brings better performance to the people
while using such vehicles. Moreover, this supported the people in gaining good experience in
using the electric vehicles because of the smooth functioning of it and thereby it is proved to be
convenient and thus considered as a featuring of good performer with better experience followed
by convenient in nature (Solmaz, 2017).
For this, it represent the suitable issues with the charging stations considering the advanced and
new technology as any factor that comprises for the power undertaking the public needs which is
reliable and safe. Apart from this, the electric vehicles are not a zero carbon solution as they
leads to produce the usual exhaust pipe emissions for the electricity of UK which is from the
renewable sources that depict the environmental cost.

Here, various number of facts and sources are prominently considered in terms of having
prominent conclusion and effective reliability that leads to make sure the suitable use of
secondary sources. The suitable sources that are being used are quite time consuming but also
reliable and feasible in use.

INTRODUCTION
Electric vehicles are also termed as those vehicles that tends to use more than one of
various motors regarding the explanation of propulsion. It is also being powered by the suitable
collecting system by the electricity from various off-vehicle sources which are self contained
with the solar panels, fuel cells, electricity generator and so on regarding the conversion of fuel
into the overall electricity (Alghamdi and Deraney, 2018). For this, the electric car within the
market is growing quite faster and rapidly as it can be understood by undertaking the fact that the
approximately 164000 electric cars are suitably running on the roads of United Kingdom at the
end of year 2020. along with this, more than 373,600 plug-in models are also included in PHEVs
which are available in market. The suitable rationale tends to bring the electric vehicles in market
are at the lower cost in order to protect the overall environment for suitable benefits.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Evaluate the concept of electric vehicles
According to Ahmad, A., (2017), The electric vehicles are the part that derive the
prominent power from the electricity which is being supplied by the electric grid. These things
are being powered by electric motors as it can be accomplished by plugging into the suitable grid
as it should be stored for suitable batteries. Along with this, the petrol based fuel is not consumed
and tailpipe emission that would bot be developed. Furthermore, the electric cars also act like the
alternative fuel for the automotive which is being opted to make sure the electric motors for
prominently controlling the effects instead of going for the common propulsion ways such as

Internal Combustion Engine. Electric vehicles has suitable benefits and due to the beneficial
impact over the environment and health depict the effective optimisation of prominent energy for
having the suitable use of personal transport and electric cars which are critical for having
suitable transportation.
Along with this, the energy efficiency of the vehicles is the basic objective of the working
at the time of measuring the vehicle for the number of operating points by making sure the
electrical quantities with dedicated monitoring systems (Kouchachvili, Yaïci and Entchev, 2018).
Examine the benefits that are being opted for electric vehicles
According to Muehlegger, E., (2020), Electric vehicles are cost effective or less
expensive because it is cheaper to run due to the no usage of petrol as petrol proves to be the
most expensive element in the resources used in the vehicle due to the fluctuation of it's prices on
a very frequent basis. Therefore, no using of petrol has assisted the people in cheaper in running
the electric vehicle. Moreover, it is less expensive to maintain which means it's maintenance cost
is low as if compared to the normal vehicle and because of the long lasting battery life of the
vehicle supported the people in saving it's cost, thereby it is considered as the cost effective
vehicle.
Electric vehicles are environment friendly because it generates less air pollution due the
no usage of petrol as petrol was the only element due to which the pollution arises so therefore, it
creates low air pollution thus friendly to the environment. Moreover, it uses the materials and
elements in it which are majorly eco-friendly in nature such that they make the usage of
renewable energy so that minimum wastages can be suffered by the people (Khurana, Kumar,
and Sidhpuria, 2020). No usages of gas thereby no harmful emissions which are safe for the
environment and there is a reduced noise pollution as well by an electric vehicle. Hence, it is
considered as an environment friendly vehicle. Electric vehicles are giving benefits to the health
of the people such as there is no air pollution, no noise pollution, no harmful emissions and no
mental stress because of low cost and safety.
Identify the challenges which are being faced in UK at the time of launching electric vehicle in
market
According to de Rubens, G.Z., (2019), there are number of challenge which are faced by
the electric vehicles for the effective manufacturing of company in order to have effective
position in the market of UK. In regard of this, initially it leads to restrict the charging point

number that become difficult for people to properly charge their vehicle. Moreover, the other
challenge which is being analysed to improve the anxiety because of the fear which might not
reach towards the desire and journey that does not have suitable charging stations. It represent
the frequent development for the charging technology and battery that causes for the deep
uncertainty (Ahmad and et. al., 2018).
RESEARCH METHODOLOGIES
The suitable research is carried out in order to effectively use two several tools and
techniques which are discussed below:
Quantitative techniques: This method is opted for effectively using suitable information
for the close ended system. In regard of this, the reason behind using this method is to collect
data by effectively using charts and graphs with proper numbers (Ercikan and Oliveri, 2016). It
leads to restrict the respondents from giving answer with the use of pre-defined ways and
methods that are being given to them and also does not provide any sort of suggestions with
suitable reference.
Qualitative techniques: This method is accountable in order to have proper focus and
give suitable insight over the viewpoint of an individual and their thoughts as well. In regard of
this, the questions that are open ended leads to represent the prominent thoughts for having
suitable answers in written form. It also leads to represent the result that is being interpreted by
summarising the inferences that can be achieved effectively.
Data collection method represent the prominent technique by having suitable data and
information which can be collected by conducting proper research in suitable manner by
identifying the appropriate findings (Sousa and Rocha, 2019). In relation with this, the suitable
methods that are concerned with effective collection of information which is being discussed as:
Primary method: It represent the prominent concept of handling details which are not
even used and undertake suitable methodology that are helpful as by which data can be gathered
from the beginning. Here, the prominent sources which are useful for company considering the
suitable survey, interviews, questionnaire and many more. In regard of this, the suitable process
for gathering data is little bit time consuming by undertaking the reliability which is high.
Secondary method: It is being responsible in terms of collecting information by
effectively using data and other sources regarding the prominent materials (Miniaoui and Kaur,

2018). Here, the suitable sources which are useful consider, magazines, journals, articles,
publications and many more.
Therefore, by undertaking the preceding discussion over the research, it is analysed that
secondary source is useful and opted in terms of collecting useful information as it leads to save
time which is concerned with appropriate information that can be achieved for suitable subject.
Here, the reason behind considering this method is to gather information for this pandemic
across the world wide that tends to put major impact over various methods to have accurate
research and findings.
SUMMARY OF LITERATURE
Electric vehicles leads to make effective use of electric motors for the purpose of suitable
efforts as it is being analysed that electric vehicles are the effective way of collecting suitable
system with the help of electricity which is being sourced from the other vehicles and sources
which are self contained with solar panel, fuel, cells, battery and other electric generator
regarding the objective of converting fuel to electricity. For this, the electric vehicles are quite
inclusive but also not restricted by undertaking the road vehicles, underwater, aircraft, electric
spacecraft and so on (Roberts, 2017). Currently, it has been analysed that the electric vehicle
sector has been emerged as the profitable potential regarding the public at the large. For this,
undertaking the suitable course of time, traditional vehicles tends to manufacture products that
came to halt and this was also classified by the evolution that take place with prominent
technologies and innovation within the emerging global market area. The sector also tends to
gain suitable popularity with effluence of time by owing for the growing concern of
sustainability. It has also been analysed that the electric vehicle industry also emerged in the 19th
century as it was in the 21st century in which the suitable sector got name and effective
characteristics within the industry. Moreover, the electric vehicles are also being used by
individuals as they tends to led towards the enhancement for the share which is being held by the
market at the international level.
People around the world need to be aware regarding the needs for bringing and
promoting suitable technologies that leads to facilitate the ratio of sustainability within the
market area. For this, there are various benefits that can be opted for the electric vehicles and for
this, the primary one is for the vehicles which are quite cheap. Along with this, the maintenance
cost for this case is electric vehicles which is lower in comparison to the traditional vehicles as it

tends to contain less number of moving parts rather than the cars which are being run by petrol or
diesel (Ponce and et. al., 2019). Along with this, it is also being acknowledged that the electric
vehicles are quite safe for the overall environment as the concept of electric vehicles are
effectively contributed for resolving problems regarding the pollution which is being faced by
the overall population. Along with this, the vehicles are not run by the virtue for the fuel and
diesel which is being run by the motors with the help of electricity. Moreover, the suitable
benefit of emerging the effective use of electric vehicles by the public is for their health benefits.
It is due to the less emissions in air that represent the less contamination in air with the huge
amount of pollutants that tends to be related with the emission by traditional cars. For this, the
greenhouse gas emission is also being exhibited by the electric vehicles that can be eliminated by
companies for having proper use of renewable energy sources (Sari, Wulan and Solihat, 2019).
It also depict that solar power voltaic system can be put for the suitable use at the day time in
order to have proper charging the car instead of grid. Moreover, the another thought for this is
the acquisition of green power from the electricity retailer as it is useful for the electric vehicle
to eliminate less emissions when they charge from the grid.
Illustration 1: The five major challenges facing electric vehicles, 2019

(Source: The five major challenges facing electric vehicles, 2019)
By undertaking the above figure, it is identified that the government of UK leads to
decide the suitable target date in terms of putting an end to the sale for petrol and diesel at the
year of 2040. For this, the suitable nation tends to undertake the traditional vehicles as the
number of charging points of electric vehicles undertaking the bounds of the UK which are quite
less. It also tends to restrict the number of people which are being interested in order to purchase
electric vehicles by having suitable use of the source for the day-to-day travelling (Alfakih,
2017). Along with this, it also depict the prominent electricity for the electric vehicles for the
renewable energy sources that cannot make sure the zero carbon emission. It also remain same
for the environmental cost that would be linked to the concept of electric vehicles and making
suitable challenge for the modern world.
EVALUATION
In regard of this, the secondary source of information is being opted which is quite
effective and reliable as it leads to enable for having precise knowledge and proper
understanding undertaking the research objectives in transparent way. For this, by considering
the situation of pandemic which is COVID-19, it is not much effective to consider things for the
primary source for collecting data. Hence, by considering the prominent reference of research, it
is more effective and credible to ensure the suitable use of resources that are being published for
various channels and mediums. This research also need various prominent facts considering the
suitable figures in order to carry forward the prominent analysis with effective interpretation
which is concerned with the findings (Abbott, 2019). Hence, the suitable assets which can be
achieved by the secondary source of information is quite effective and offer adequate details
which is being available to carry forward the suitable analysis of the research objectives.
REFLECTION
By undertaking the prominent reference for the suitable research topic considering the
electric vehicles in United Kingdom and its benefits that can be achieved by the company as it
useful for me in order to gain things within the various aspects which are concerned with it. For
this, I came to know regarding the primary things of electric vehicles undertaking the rationale
by which organisations tends to opt suitable type of transportation options considering the
market trends and other factors. For this, there are number of benefits which are being achieved

by the local individuals and other entities. For this, the suitable benefit is related with the
effective elimination of pessimistic influence over the environment as it tends to decline the
carbon emission. Furthermore, I also found that while considering the electric vehicles in UK
there are suitable restrictions are occurred which are being faced by people as it undertake
effective charging point which is not being possible in order to undertake prominent amount of
options for the various vehicles for which they can also charged. In regard of this, I also found
that the suitable aspects which are being undertaken for the large number of benefits that tends to
eliminate cost, obliteration of fuels and so on. In regard of this, I also found that the overall
experience which is being achieved from the overall learning is quite great as it is useful me in
order to achieve effective and wide range of knowledge by having proper vision for the
concerning concepts.
