<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:left;"></p><p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">The transportation sector is a significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. To mitigate these impacts, the global automotive industry has been transitioning to electric vehicles (EVs) that are powered by electricity from batteries rather than fossil fuels. While electric cars have been touted as a sustainable alternative to conventional cars, the extent of their sustainability in the long term is still a topic of debate.</span></p> <p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">The aim of this thesis is to examine the economic and social impacts of electric cars and assess whether they are more sustainable in the long term than conventional cars. Sustainability is defined as meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs (WCED, 1987). To assess the sustainability of electric cars, the thesis will analyze various economic and social factors such as cost, energy efficiency, environmental impact, and user acceptance.</span></p> <p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Several studies have analyzed the economic aspects of electric cars and have found that while electric cars have a higher upfront cost, they have a lower total cost of ownership over their lifetime compared to conventional cars (Fleiter et al., 2018; De Kleine, 2019). This is because electric cars have lower fuel and maintenance costs, and the cost of batteries is decreasing rapidly (Fleiter et al., 2018). On the other hand, the social acceptance of electric cars has been identified as a key barrier to their widespread adoption (Sierzchula et al., 2014). This is because consumers perceive electric cars to have limited driving range, long charging times, and a lack of charging infrastructure (Sierzchula et al., 2014).</span></p> <p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Furthermore, the environmental impacts of electric cars are also a key consideration in assessing their sustainability. While electric cars produce zero tailpipe emissions, the environmental impact of their production and disposal must also be taken into account (Ellingsen et al., 2018). Therefore, the thesis will also analyze the environmental impacts of electric cars compared to conventional cars.</span></p> <p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">In conclusion, this thesis will investigate the economic and social impacts of electric cars and assess their sustainability in the long term. By examining various economic and social factors and analyzing the environmental impacts of electric cars, the thesis aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the sustainability of electric cars and contribute to the ongoing discussion on the transition to a low-carbon transportation system.</span></p><br><p></p>
