That’s an intriguing question! Many electric cars use water-based cooling.
Electric cars
use a cooling system to regulate the temperature of the battery packs stored inside them. This is where water comes in. Most common coolants contain a mixture of glycol and water. There are other cooling methods, like air-cooling, but most electric cars today depend on liquid cooling to run more efficiently.
