Description:
No electric motor, but a more robust
battery for the extra stop-start cycles, and to
keep air conditioning
running.
internal combustion
engines equipped with an electric
machine, allowing the engine to be
turned off whenever the car
is coasting, braking, or
stopped
can run on just the engine, just
the batteries, or a combination of
both. But cannot be charged from a
wallbox.
It can be plugged into an electrical
outlet to be charged.
It has some range that can be
travelled on the energy it stored
while plugged in.
auxiliary power unit built-in or
externally attached to a all-electric (BEV) or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle
(PHEV) to increase its
range.
uses chemical energy stored in
rechargeable battery packs.
use electric motors and motor
controllers instead of internal
combustion engines (ICEs) for
propulsion.
uses a fuel cell to power its on-board electric
motor, generally using oxygen
from the air and compressed hydrogen.
