Battery Demands for Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

Gale Kimbrough, Technical Services Manager
Interstate Batteries

Many years ago, a vehicle’s cranking cycle demanded a longer duration (five to 30 seconds) due to non-electronic ignition systems and carbureted engines. Some carbureted engines required multiple accelerator hits prior to cranking, while others required only one depression. Read more about Battery Demands for Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

The concept of zero-emissions mobility has been around for more than a century, when electric vehicles (EVs) outsold gas-powered cars. About 33,000 EVs are on the roads in the US, but the perception that EVs aren’t for everyone still exists. Recent data from the US Department of Energy shows that the adoption curve for EVs is actually accelerating at a faster pace than that of hybrid vehicles.
