Alternative Fuel Cars: Alcohol vs. Electric
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing the design, durability
and safety of alcohol-powered and electric cars, particularly GM's EV1. As for which is "best," it
appears that alcohol-powered vehicles provide a good alternative to gasoline-powered cars for the
short term, buying time for further development of the various electric versions that are becoming
more common and more affordable. In the long term, however, it is the electric approach that
needs to be regarded as "best." Current models are highly limited in their range, but the further
development and refinement of the use of fuel cells will give future purchasers greater freedom of
movement outside the city limits. Bibliography lists 15 sources in 23 footnotes.
