Comparison of battery electric vehicle and hybrid electric vehicle

Abstract

The topic of electric vehicles is popular nowadays, as electric vehicles, during their exploitation, leave less emission compared to internal combustion engine vehicles. Thus, according to [1], if in 2020, electric vehicle sales were only 4%, in 2022, this value has skyrocketed to 14%, .The term “electric vehicle” (EV) generally refers to a vehicle that is driven by an electric motor powered by a self-contained power source. In this article we will discuss about two varieties of electric vehicles: Battery EV (BEV) and Plug-In Hybrid EV (PHEV). Look at their positive and negative sides, from the point of view of an ordinary user and make a definite conclusion on this basis.
