Electric cars plug into a charge point and take electricity from the grid. They store electricity in a rechargeable battery that powers an electric motor, which spins the wheels. Electric cars run faster than vehicles with conventional fuel engines - so they feel lighter to drive.
The electric motor receives energy from a controller, which controls the amount of power based on the driver's use of the accelerator pedal. Electric cars (also known as electric vehicles or EVs) use energy stored in their rechargeable batteries, which are recharged by common household electricity.
Main components of an Electric car:
1) Traction Battery Pack: An electric-vehicle battery (also known as a traction battery) is used to power an electric vehicle's motors. These batteries are usually rechargeable (secondary) and are usually lithium-ion batteries.
2) Power Inverter: An inverter converts DC electricity from sources such as batteries or fuel cells into AC electricity. Power can be at any required voltage; Specifically, it can operate AC equipment designed for mains operation or can be rectified to produce DC at the desired voltage.
3) Electric Motor: The DC motor works because, simply put, when a current is passed through the motor circuit, there is a reaction between the current in the field and the current in the armature, which causes the armature to turn. The armature and the field are connected in series, and the whole motor is referred to as a "series wound."
4) Controller: The controller's main function is to regulate electrical energy from batteries and inverters that will be distributed to electric motors. The main input to the controller is from the car's pedal. This pedal setting will determine the frequency variation or voltage variation that will enter the motor and, at the same time, determine the speed of the car.
5) DC/DC Converter: This is one of the electric car parts that convert high-voltage DC power from the traction battery pack to low-voltage DC power to drive the vehicle's accessories and recharge the auxiliary battery. Necessary for.
6) Charging port: The charge port allows the vehicle to be connected to an external power supply to charge the traction battery pack.

WOW.... ♥️NOTHING TO SAY MY BROTHER😌😌YOU ARE A BEAST..... KEEP IT UP♥️LOVE IT FROM SRILANKA ❣️💫
BEAUTIFULLY EXPLAINED STEP BY STEP
What a explanation 😮. Even a common man can become a mechanic by watching your video. ❤️❤️❤️
Glad you liked it
@@TheEngineersPost mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
@@TheEngineersPost mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I been a mechanic 30 years, umm no, even now a days, most normal people have no idea how to proper trouble shoot a common problem with check engine lights... most mechanics cant either, its a specialty..... THis will be as well... This video left alot out.... I actually work on these cars and gas cars......ASE Master Mechanic.. Its a good basic video, but its being bias on some many levels and WRONG about cost.....
@@recon5107 always a guy like you…did you just come here to tell us you’ve been a mechanic for 30 years
I was watching this with a friend and student of mine, and both of us learnt quite a lot. You really rock with this video. Keep on doing these videos, pls! Congratulations about it!
Hi from Brazil.
Great work ! Would love to know more about the engineering behind EVs , especially FCEVs.
Thanks! Sure we will cover FCEVs in future video.
I WANT BHEV vehicles TOO.... PLZ MAKE A REVIEW brother♥️
Wow! Very informative. Thanks!
Thank you very much.
this has been super informative.
I hadn't sunscribed to your Channel two weeks ago, since I didn't find any videos regarding EV.
Now I am. Thanks. Was exactly looking for this explanation.
Very helpful - post viewing this video lot of query on EV got resolved. Please can you also help with a video on Battery technologies and there advancement in recent days please .
Thank u Sir for detail vdo love from INDIA.Nicely explained❤❤❤
Very educative 👍🏾
So good explanation and awesome clear voice.
Great presentation! I would like to hear about solid state battery
Very Nicely explained! Thank you
Wow, I knew nothing about cars but, now I got it, it isn't easy but,I'll get there
Thanks, I love it
Thank you Down to earth explanation. The best part is motor to speed up but turns Alternator when brake appled Energy Conserved a lot. No mechanical gear box No Differentials Oh if higher secondary students are taught this way No costly coaching classes or spoon feeding
Disposal Pollution Brother and Production Big pollution
Many thanks.
Enlightening presentation.
Clearly we are getting close to massive rollout and affordable EVs.
Until EVs are under $20,000 they are not "affordable" for the average person. Sure doctors and lawyers will be able to drive them, but not average everyday workers.
@@brewergamer AND, we currently don't have the electric power generation required to charge a fleet of EVs, exacerbated by the current push to eliminate fossil fuels......not realistic, IMO.
I priced one at $80,000. Hell they can keep it. I have a 2014 buick lacrosse and a Nissan pathfinder rock creek 2020 and both are paid off and run perfectly. I keep them clean and polished and i take care of them. They not only have to bring down the ev prices but they have to perfect them before i even think about spending $80,000 pluss on one. I travel on i-95 twice a year from Pennsylvania to Florida and i dont see many charging stations. I wish i didn't have to drive down there and i don't fly and of course the mighty United States of America doesn't have highspeed bullet trains which is something we should of had decades ago. Considering how gong ho on Technology this country is. But for now, keep the electric cars and all the money it would take to own one.....
The most informative explanation on EV. Greatly appreciated! A couple questions: 1. Why do we sometimes hear electric cars blow up? 2. What's the key technology in EV development? 3. What are obstacles ahead in the industry?
1. when battery is pierced there is no stopping it. The chemistry reacts to air and will start burning like hell. just run away. 2. Batteries lasting longer, giving more juice. Reducing costs. 3. Some of the parts used in batteries are being minded from the ground. Soon there will be shortage of materials and EV are going to switch to H powered mechanisms
@@JakovOmrcen I been Master mechanic for 30 years, Batteries today don't last longer, they last less longer than 10 year,s 20 years ago.... the quality has GOT worse..... not better... This is for electric and Gas cars, we sell MORE batteries than we ever did, 20 years ago, in cars a year old and less........ Batteries for Electric also cost thousands .......that does not reduce costs... Sensors , states, motors, etc in electric cars have HIGH maint, need to be recal all the damn time, which is NOT under most warranties, due to it being related to weather, debris.... So, people who THINK electric will be cheaper, have a rude awaken, and as I said in other posts, its a specialty, just like diagnosing , trouble shooting check engine lights, known as drivability.... something I done my entire career, and I meet 3 others like myself and worked with hundreds, so good luck finding a shop to repair, these, even in the future, due to the cost of tools, US mechanics have to PAY, and most won't and cant.....So, you will be forced to a dealer, and most of there mechanics won't either...Unless the SHOPS pays and MOST shops, don't pay for shit, they rely on US mechanics..... This is why the industry is dying, and has been for 30 years..... These shops will be all gone small business wise..... It will be only dealers and only a few of them.... that WILL be able to fix this stuff.... due to them PAYING shit and giving shit benefits.... Talk to any Master mechanic like myself who has been doing this along time, they will TELL you the same, this WILL cost the customer WAY MORE money at the end of the day....... and drive more mechanics from the industry... as it did when Computers, come into cars..I personally loved computers, and electric, but I know reality and cost and what it does to our bodies and how we are treated. So, the industry, and customers will pay the price, MARK my words.... Long waits....and more $$
I know all these business Proposals about an improvement is not or it's just another big business proposal for the big shot oligarchs and government to make billions of dollars.... They don't care about your safety or income if you can afford it... I prefer the old cars that I worked on I can replace carburetors, regulators, alternators, generators, brakes, radiators, tune-ups ect. And when the computers came around I said forget it man you got a go to the mechanic to do the job and turn off that check engine light and it's more expensive. How much blood can they squeeze off our arteries since they drain all our veins already and kill us with stress and anxiety..... This politicians and business people lie through the cracks of their teeth....
@@recon5107 ICE cars have loads more electric stuff sapping battery power now than they ever did, chance some pickups having 2 batteries. Not being sexist but there are a lot more women driving cars these days, just doing short local runs. In the UK we have a saying never buy a car previously owned by a health visitor or district nurse. The Tesla model S was launched over 10 years ago, with only an 8 year battery warranty! ICE engines are 20-25 percent efficient! Electric motors are 97-99percent!!! If you have 2 electric motors on the same axle you don't need a multi speed transmission or differential. Also with the OBDll port you have a very Good idea what's wrong.
Battery blow due to thermal runaway , is the battery pack have good cooling system then chances of thermal run
way is very less. Thermal runaway is the most adverse cause of complete thermal mismanagement
thank you ... very informative😊
Hey.... very nicely explained.... wonderful
God Bless You Sir 🙏
Thank you so much , Sir. 🙏🙏🙏
Just incredible👌
Great knowledge, thanks 🌹
Thank you so much for this information .
Amazing vedio. Appreciated the efforts put on in making such wonderful material. Anyone can understand becuase of its simplicity & excellent animation which are timed perfectly. Thanks for sharing
Thanks a ton
It was a fantastic, knowledgeable👍 video. I thought I will need to give so many hours or days to understand EV's but by explaining electric vehicle working in just 18min you proved me wrong.
Thank you so much🙏
Very well explained in short time...I love it❤
I interviewed a top energy expert on my home page vid. He warns EV conversion will not happen and oil can never be replaced.
really!! very educative appreciate for yous short and brief information.
Cool video, nicely done!!! Good job!
Very informative video. Thanks so much
Very well explained
Every human has the wright to protect the enviorement. It can be done through EV (this) cars. Whether you like or not the technolgy will change. Its the time to change all of us to EV cars and thanks to your video. It gave more details.
Great point!
Productive & informative video.
Thanks ..
Now, I will make my own electric car and try to commercialize it..😊
Well explained 👏
Two years have passed, and the technological advancement in electric vehicles (EVs) has been rapid. Some Chinese electric cars now boast a range exceeding 1000 kilometers, with fast-charging speeds reaching 80% capacity in just 15 minutes. Prices have become comparable to traditional fuel-powered cars, and, more importantly, there has been a significant increase in intelligent features.
Beautiful video
Thanks again For this wonderful video .
12:17 Ford C-Max Energi is really nice 👌🤣
Anyway, really nice video. Thanks !
This video captures all the essential details for a layman to comprehend the functioning of the different types of EVs.
Kudos! 👍🏼
Thanks.... very nice one...
Excellent video with easy and complete explanation , even for foreign.. congratulation t
I love this video
I learnt a lot
I see some solutions in questions I have been asking
Very informative. Thanks
Really appreciate you good explanation thanks lot
I've been a combustion vehicle owner my whole life, but now I'm moving towards EVs after learning so much about EVs. I prefer Electric Vehicles over Hybrid and traditional Combustion Engine. Less maintenance and no pollution such as co2 and noise.
Each one teach one thank you for this Vedio thanks for sharing
I interviewed a top energy expert on my home page vid. He warns EV conversion will not happen and oil can never be replaced.
This video was very informative
best video 😊💜
This is a pretty neat video I love watching videos like this ❤❤
Thank so much for your so intersting explenation, for sure i will change my gas car to an Ev car in future
Got a good knowledge about ev vehicles.
Thanks bro.
Always welcome
Nice work dude!
you give us great knowlege
Amazing video and explanation but I think you mixed up the ford and mercedes when talking about plugin hybrids 😅
Thank you. Very useful
Very clear 👌
Thank you very much for sharing info about the EV's only charging time is long otherwise a good contribution to the green environment.
I interviewed a top energy expert on my home page vid. He warns EV conversion will not happen and oil can never be replaced.
its really useful for us thanks a lot.
Nice explanation
Thank you, it is very useful information to begin with.
Knowledgeable video 👍
Thanks for sharing publically
SUPER AND VERY GOOD KNOWLEDGE IS GIVING ABOUT EV..................
Very well presented, catering to both techies n laymen.
To me I really don't care for one they're too expensive and what were the weight of those batteries do when you get in a wreck and one of those batteries sounds break you better run like hell because your car is going to be in fire quick.... That's if you can run you'll burn up in the car like barbecue spare ribs.... You notice they never spoke about safety the vehicle crashing what would happen...
They are very dangerous n hazard to you health
Great work as an engineer have alot ... Even I never knew how they work ...
thanks for such nice info.
Nice work!
I believed every word of it but I have a lot to learn lol!
Lovely!! Neat demonstration 💐
Thank you for this video
Excellent explanation
very precise❤
Very much Informative content, thanks for sharing

Excellent educational factual helpful analysis. Best regards.
Thanks for your efforts
Great work and convenient 👌👌
Great information 😊
Thanks lot good explanation
I would love to learn more about the car and because of your video I have passed the test ofit ❤❤
Nice
Nice
Great effort bro thnx for your great information from Pakistan❤❤❤
Great explanation.
Easy to understand. Very good knowledge sharing for the younger generation who are interested to work as machanics at a car repare workshops.
I'm a 30 year ASE Master Mechanic, they left out, it will cost you thousands to even begin becoming a mechanic, today, and it will be worse once all the electric crap is into play, I been a drivability mechanic, and there are NOT many of us, they will fall into that area as well as specialty, which I spent over 100k in took and in electric tools, I will need to nearly retool completely, the SHOP does not supply tools, it will cost me another 200-300k worth of tools over a period of time, if you don't have those tools, you cant make money or work on them..... Now a days, GM Ford, Etc, also charge Sub fees and yearly fees for our scanners, and much more..... My scanner cost me alone 8k, and every year a few more grand for updates..... and we get shit health care, and no pensions, 401, sure, but if you get hurt as I did and others always do, good luck, getting disability.. I love being a mechanic.... but, be smart about any younger generation person who does it, plan on getting the skills needed and work for your self.... because at the end of the day once you get hurt and you will at some point, no one will care.... the shop, the gov, your health insurance will NOT pay... Great living for good mechanics, but work for your self.... and be smart about it. Alot of us learned the hard way.... as veteran mechanics.
Sir do you have a ppt of this as I have taken this as my technical seminar topic and which I have on next week , so therefore if you share this as a ppt then I will be faithful to you and atlast the video helped me getting my doubt clear . Thank you
Thank you
Welcome!
Great job. Would you let the viewers know how various aircraft engines function.
Great suggestion!
Thanks. I didn't know anything about electric cars
Great video, well explained.. but next time please make sure attention to details, 12:17 you mentioned Mercedes as ford and vice versa.
My bad
Love electric car! The acceleration is smooth, the zero emissions make it eco-friendly, and the convenience of charging is a game-changer. Excited for a greener future with more electric cars on the road!
I interviewed a top energy expert on my home page vid. He warns EV conversion will not happen and oil can never be replaced.
@@ChannelNews1 And when oil runs out, what will happen?
@@LAndrewsChannel did you watch it?
@@ChannelNews1 Both you and the "energy expert" are clearly biased, spewing unverfied or false crap about EVs and pretty much riding each other arguments without actually discussing anything for the 5 minutes I had the patience to listen.
Also, repling the same text to other unrelated comments under this video is an easy way to be reported as spam and diminish the value of whatever you are saying.
@@LAndrewsChannel how is providing hard resources biased? The shoe is clearly on the other foot.
Very informative and helpful explanation
I have heard that charging the battery at home in a standard electrical outlet takes many hours to fully recharge; and the owners will need an electrical system that has more juice flowing into the battery.
Nice information 👍
Love from 🧡🤍💚 India ...
Many thanks!!!!
Which software is used in the video for animations?
Excellent work.
Please make dedicated video on ev hybrid vehicles 🥺
Good video, for next please explain about nuclear powered vehicle.. 😂✌️
