Though the concept of battery operated vehicles came into production around the 1880’s, the idea of electric vehicles did not claim wide public interest until more recently. At the beginning of the 21st century, a more environmentally conscious world looked for alternative fuels to reduce the emission of what came to be known as greenhouse gas. With growing advancements in battery technology, the time was ripe for the electric movement.

A revival of the electric vehicles came in the late 2000’s, with the growing concerns of a global economic recession, and fuel guzzling vehicles that were no longer satisfactory for consumer budgets. Out of this revival emerged a number of redesigned electronic vehicles, including the low speed electric vehicles.

Today, a low speed electric vehicle, also known as a LSV or NEV (Neighborhood Electronic Vehicle) is defined as a four wheeled vehicle that weighs less than 3,000 pounds and runs on an electric (often led acid) battery, with a top travel speed of 25mph (40kph). Most battery operated vehicles can travel for 60–100 miles on a single charge.

LSV’s are not required to meet the same safety standards and regulations of regular internal combustion vehicles, but are mandated in most countries to be equipped with head and tail lights, brake lights, reflectors, mirrors, a parking break, a windshield, and seat belts. In many countries, an orange triangle is also required on the back of the LSV
