Hybrid cars use multiple energy sources, typically an electric motor and internal combustion engine. Parallel hybrids run both engine and electric motor simultaneously through mechanical coupling. Series hybrids use electric motor only, with engine generating electricity through generator. Power-split hybrids combine features of both parallel and series hybrids
Electric cars use batteries charged by external electricity sources. All-electric vehicles (AEVs) convert 59-62% of energy into vehicle movement. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) combine electric and internal combustion engines
EVs and HEVs will account for 30% of global vehicle sales by 2025. Plug-in EVs will reach 8.4 million vehicles by 2025. Pure-ICE vehicles will maintain 70% market share until 2030
ICE vehicles use internal combustion engines powered by crude oil-derived fuels. ICE engines convert chemical energy into kinetic energy through combustion. ICE technology will continue for several decades according to Fuel Institute
