Not long after in 1870-1880 when practical electric cars started to develop

By then in 1884 Thomas Parker, an english inventor made the first electric car that was on public roads and streets, it was powered by rechargeable batteries. Parker went on to make more electric vehicles such as trains and buses.

On the morning of June 4th 1896, Henry ford invented the first ford vehicle, the quad cycle.

not long after the ford model t was invented on August 12th 1908 in Detroit, Michigan.

Years later on July 1st, 2003 the first tesla was introduced in San Carlos, California

The first tesla was released in February 2008, the Tesla Roadster made by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning costing $109,000.

Finally, in 2009, the first electric ford was released, it was the ford focus BEV. 
This is the history of the electric car.

Used electric vehicles are sometimes sold and bought for more because people are willing to pay a lot more due to people wanting to get one right away. At the end of 2022, the average price of an electric vehicle was $61,488, as apposed to $49,507 for all passenger cars and trucks.


Gas ran cars also will lead to bad, and hard to breath in air. The air could become so bad and unhealthy that it will become very hard to breath in this air because of all this air pollution, and all the toxic chemicals in the air around us. This can also lead to extreme weather conditions like a raise in temperatures drastically.

The factory conditions aren't any better though. When making cars, workers work in a factory setting surrounded by moving equipment, heavy machinery, loud noises, and some sharp objects. Because of this, it could cause "ergonomic health issues in the mid to long-term".
These are what I found to be the human impacts.

A typical car produces about 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year.  So this assumes the average gasoline vehicle on the road today has a fuel economy of about 22.0 miles per gallon and drives around 11,500 miles per year. Therefore every gallon of gasoline burned creates about 8,887 grams of CO2.Given an EV’s average energy consumption of 0.20 kilowatt-hour (kWh) per kilometer or 0.32 kWh per mile, then we can look at the average energy required to cover the daily increase of Americans and Europeans. This contributes to stopping global warming because if we only make electric cars then it will get rid of most air pollution made by vehicles and air pollution is a big part of why global warming is so bad. This may not help animals because although electric cars are eco-friendly animals biggest problems are plastic but maybe it then just gives animals a more breathable ecosystem.

Electric cars do not create an excessive amount of waste because waste doesn’t really have anything to do with electric cars. 
these are what I found to be the environmental impacts.
