An electric motor powered by an onboard rechargeable battery replaces the gasoline engine in an electric vehicle (EV). Since EVs emit no pollutants from their tailpipes, this change has a positive impact on the environment by cleaning the air. Electric vehicles (EVs) connect to charging stations to top off their batteries rather than filling up at gas stations. They are therefore a very appealing choice for environmentally aware drivers looking to lessen their impact on the environment. For optimum environmental friendliness, some EVs run exclusively on batteries; others, such as plug-in hybrids, combine an electric motor and a gasoline engine for a longer driving range.

Driving Factors- As people grow increasingly aware of the environmental effects of conventional gasoline-powered cars, they are actively looking for greener and more sustainable forms of transportation. Since they produce zero tailpipe emissions, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and improve air quality, EVs provide a solution to this issue. Due to EVs' advantages for the environment, people who care about the environment are beginning to favor EVs more and more, which is increasing market demand. Continuous developments in battery technology are transforming the industry and increasing the affordability, usefulness, and consumer appeal of EVs. The increase in energy density, which enables batteries to store more energy and have longer driving ranges, is one of the major advancements.

Challenges- Compared to conventional gasoline-powered automobiles, electric vehicles' driving range is still constrained, despite advances in battery technology. Prospective EV customers continue to be concerned about range anxiety, or the worry of running out of battery before reaching a charging station. Longer excursions could necessitate careful planning or the use of charging facilities along the route, even though the majority of current EVs give a range that many users find enough for daily driving. This increased cost is mostly due to the battery, an essential part of an electric vehicle. Some customers may find the initial purchase price prohibitive, even if they may save money on gasoline and maintenance over the course of the vehicle's lifetime.

There was a mixed effect of COVID-19 on the electric vehicle market in South Korea. There was a brief decline in total auto sales in 2020 as a result of early interruptions. But when worries about public transportation increased, some customers turned to owning a car, and electric vehicles (EVs) became an exception. Additionally, government incentives kept the trend going. The pandemic clearly had an impact on the market, but it didn't stop South Korea from pushing for electric cars.
