Electric Cars: Will it be Boom or Another False Start?

Chapter 8 in Sustaining Industrial Competitiveness after the Crisis, 2012, pp 173-200 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The question of electric vehicles (EV) is one that has recurred throughout the history of the car, since the early post-war period, but has, however, remained on the edges of the mainstream because of some basic limitations that have made such vehicles less competitive compared with vehicles with internal combustion engines (ICEVs).
