Battery packs for all electric drive EVs can contain several hundred individual cells. Each cell has a nominal voltage of 3-4 volts, depending on its chemical composition. [citation needed] To assist in manufacturing and assembly, the large stack of cells is typically grouped into smaller stacks called modules.
Cars were exported to other countries, [10] sometimes being classified as a moped (e.g. the P50 that went to Finland). [11] In the Netherlands there are two original Peel Tridents registered as tricycles , but the Trident replica with the 50cc engine and 59 km/h (37 mph) top speed was registered as a moped.
The Tesla Model Y is the first electric vehicle to become the world's best-selling car in 2023, outselling the Toyota Corolla. [1]Battery electric vehicles are vehicles exclusively using chemical energy stored in rechargeable battery packs, with no secondary source of propulsion (e.g., hydrogen fuel cell, internal combustion engine, etc.).

A typical 12 V, 40 Ah lead-acid car battery. An automotive battery, or car battery, is a rechargeable battery that is used to start a motor vehicle.. Its main purpose is to provide an electric current to the electric-powered starting motor, which in turn starts the chemically-powered internal combustion engine that actually propels the vehicle.
Battery electric cars are becoming more and more attractive with the higher oil prices and the advancement of new battery technology (lithium-ion) that have higher power and energy density (i.e., greater possible acceleration and more range with fewer batteries). [12] Compared to older battery types such as lead-acid batteries.
An explosion in one cell may ignite any combustible gas mixture in the remaining cells. Similarly, in a poorly ventilated area, connecting or disconnecting a closed circuit (such as a load or a charger) to the battery terminals can also cause sparks and an explosion, if any gas was vented from the cells.
