The emission from fossil fuels is in itself a major concern around the world. Without looking at statistics, one can predict how much of a dire situation the world is going through right now. Adding on to this information is a set of data from ourworldindata.org.

The data clearly mentions the number of annual deaths due to air pollution caused by the consumption of fossil fuels. The world is going through a critical condition, with 3.61 million deaths due to harmful gases.

The best alternative that countries should step towards is using electricity or fuel cells. While one is cheaper on your pocket, the other provides better environmental benefits. Nonetheless, both these fossil fuel substitutes are the ones that will bring the mobility of the future to life.

To begin with, let’s take a closer look at the e-mobility that is becoming a part of people’s lives around the world.

The First Innovative Nature-Friendly Step

The breakthrough of electric cars cannot be pinpointed in history. But one perspective is shared between all of the countries and people who started toying with the concept of electric vehicles. The 1800s brought the first electric motor to life. It was always the nonconformists of the world who took one step forward. In later years you will find those freethinkers taking up those out-of-the-box ideas for electromobility.

In the late 19th Century, the United States brought an electric wagon with a top speed of 14 miles per hour to life. Though it was not as advanced if you think about it in today’s scenario, it did play an essential part in sparking people’s interest in the area of e-mobility.

But Soon, The Market Crashed

Though the innovation was slowly gaining its ground and hold on the market, Henry Ford’s Model in the early 20th-century brought down the sales of the electric vehicle. Henry Ford’s Model T was selling at $650, which was less than half the price of the electric roadster ($1750).

Consequently, the need and interest fell considerably. The market saw little to no innovation for a time frame. However, the crisis in fossil fuels during the 1960s and 1970s sparked the electric-vehicle revolution once again. The idea was to find an alternative to fossil fuel to tackle the colossal price leap and shortage of gasoline.

What is Driving the Revolution Forward?

The e-mobility industry should have boomed with the Boomer Generation. However, succeeding two generations are bringing innovation to the limelight. However, it is agreeable that the previous generation didn’t have enough resources to spread the word about it. We can give it to them. But, they could have tried a bit harder to at least work on the ways to make it more convenient for the future generation.

Let’s not complain about it and focus on what the present generation has in their hands. It is the question, “what is driving the electromobility revolution today?”

The answer to it lies in the fact that the new generation is more of a nature-thinker than being attracted to pocket-friendly things. Sorry if that sounded a bit inglorious to the previous generation, but it is very accurate in today’s world. In addition, the mobility of the future is offering a sustainable future to them. Big e-mobility companies are making these vehicles more affordable for the general public. Hence, people are switching over to it for their ease and comfort.

2021 accounted for over 6.5 million electric vehicle sales. That indicates that people are indeed taking up the electric change very seriously. In a way, it shows that the larger population is pertaining to change in their lifestyle for sustainable future development.

The Mobility of the Future

It is inevitable to wonder about the future of electromobility. Getting a vehicle that is going to be with you for years to come is indeed a decision you need to make after giving it a good thought.

In that case, let us tell you that the succeeding years will surpass the years for the sustainable development of e-mobility. With more efforts being put into action, the industry is going up at an increasing pace every day. Hence, it will reduce a major problem in the world – a prevalent problem due to the combustion of fossil fuels – death due to air pollution.
