Abstract
Electric vehicles have gained significant attention in recent years as a clean alternative to gasoline-powered cars. Despite numerous advantages, including reduced emissions and lower dependence on fossil fuels, questions remain about the true sustainability of these vehicles. This article examines the history, advantages, disadvantages, and future of electric vehicles to answer the question of whether electric vehicles can be considered a sustainable option for the future. The results of this research show that although electric vehicles have the potential to significantly reduce air pollution and climate change, challenges such as the high cost of batteries, limited driving range, and dependence on the electricity grid require serious attention. Keywords:Electric vehicles, environmental sustainability, lithium-ion batteries, charging networks, climate change, automotive industry.
