Clean vehicles come in three technology types: battery-electric, plug-in hybrid electric, and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles.
- Battery-electric vehicles (EVs) run entirely on electricity stored in a rechargeable onboard battery that is charged by plugging into the electric grid.
- Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles combine a battery and electric motor with a gasoline engine, allowing them to operate on electricity, gasoline, or a mix of both.
- Hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles use a fuel cell to generate electricity through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen. This electricity powers an electric motor that drives the vehicle.
