Abstract: An improved electric vehicle powered by a plurality of rechargeable batteries which are discharged and simultaneously charged during the vehicle's operation. The batteries are discharged as the energy used to operate the vehicle is drawn from the batteries. The operation of the vehicle activates two power systems configured to generate voltage and to recharge the depleting batteries. The two power systems are: (1) dual-purpose electric motors configured to convert the mechanical energy created by the rotation of the vehicle's wheels into electric current; and (2) a thermocouple which converts energy created by temperature difference between two objects into voltage, a process commonly known as the thermoelectric effect or Seebeck effect.
