Study Notes

Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs)

After the battery range is utilized, a PHEV operates as a conventional hybrid electric vehicle.

Advantages of PHEVs

The primary advantage of a PHEV over a conventional hybrid vehicle is the ability to recharge the battery from an external power source, allowing for increased electric-only operation.

Electric Vehicles

When operating solely on battery power, electric vehicles do not provide the benefit of reducing noise pollution in rural areas.
In urban environments, electric vehicles provide the significant environmental benefit of reducing pollution from tailpipe emissions.

Performance of Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles can achieve similar speeds to internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles during normal driving.

Electric Vehicle Operation

An electric vehicle's electric motor delivers power to the vehicle when the vehicle is in motion.
