Existing solutions
There is already a few existing solutions for this problem such as the hybrid car, electric car, and the hugely popular- solar car. All this car are designed for fuel economy. All these cars are designed using an alternative energy as a replacement for fossil fuel. The hybrid car powers two power sources depending on the speed being traveled. This mean that the fuel consumption of the car can be reduced. If the hybrid car uses electric as a second source of energy they may take a lot of time to recharge. If the hybrid car uses solar as its the another source, it may lack sufficient energy to carry heavy load. So that mean the hybrid car is not reliable. Another existing solution is the solar car. Solar car means a car which uses the solar energy from the sun. th e solar energy obtained by the sun converted into electric energy. Unfortunately the solar car is extremely expensive due to the PV cells. The lifetime of the cells is also short. Since two of the solutions are not reliable, we turn around to electric car. Electric car are considered as one of the most useful creation in the 21st century. But the electric car also have some disadvantages, that is our country- Malaysia produces electric by burning the coal and fuel. So using electric cars in Malaysia only changes the emissions form the tail pipe to the power plant.
