Which of the following is a reason that drivers prefer gasoline-powered engines to electric motors?
a.) the cost of fuel for a gasoline-powered car is lower than that of an electric car
b.) gasoline-powered cars are more fuel efficient for short trips
c.) the environmental impact of gasoline-powered cars compared to electric motors is small.
d.) gasoline-powered cars are better for fast acceleration and traveling at high speeds.

The correct option is Gasoline-powered cars are better for fast acceleration and traveling at high speeds.

We know that electric power is the product of voltage and current and in an electric car the voltage is likely 24 volts and 1 ampere. So its power is comparative less. Similarly if something goes wrong with battery everything goes down. On the other hand a gas engine has a peak output related for its rpm, torque, and resulting horsepower. It is more powerful as compared to electric engine so that is the reason that gasoline-powered cars are better for fast acceleration and traveling at high speeds.
