  • Non-plug-in hybrid EVs (HEVs): instead of using an external plug to charge the vehicle, the electricity generated by the HEV’s braking system is used to recharge the battery.
  • FCEVs are typically fuelled by hydrogen and usually provide greater range than BEVs
  • Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs): use a fuel cell instead of a battery, or in combination with a battery or supercapacitor, to power their electric motors.
  • They can be charged with electricity using a plug but also contain an internal combustion engine that uses liquid fuel
  • Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs): powered by a combination of liquid fuel and electricity.
  • BEVs are also known as ‘plug-in’ EVs as they use an external electrical charging outlet to charge the battery
