2. Vehicle classification by propulsion system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_Classification_by...

   Toyota made up a term "Self Charging Hybrid" which is very misleading. [8] It is actually just a Hybrid Electric Vehicle. It can charge from running combustion engine though doing this will use more fuel than just driving using power from engine directly. Examples: Toyota Prius Hybrid.

3. Plug-in hybrid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_hybrid

   A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) or simply plug-in hybrid is a type of hybrid electric vehicle equipped with a rechargeable battery pack that can be directly replenished via a charging cable plugged into an external electric power source, in addition to charging internally by its on-board internal combustion engine-powered generator.

4. Range extender - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_extender

   The Chevrolet Volt is a series plug-in hybrid referred by General Motors as "an electric car with extended range." General Motors describes the Chevrolet Volt as an electric vehicle equipped with a 16 kWh battery plus a "range extending" gasoline powered internal combustion engine (ICE) as a genset and therefore dubbed the Volt an "Extended ...

5. Charge-depleting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge-depleting

   Battery electric vehicles operate solely in charge-depleting mode, and most plug-in hybrids operate in this mode at startup and switch to charge-sustaining mode after the battery has reached its minimum state of charge (SOC) threshold, exhausting the vehicle's all-electric range (AER). Although there is no technically mandated minimum all ...

6. Plug-in electric vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_electric_vehicle

   By the end of 2019 the stock of light-duty plug-in vehicles totaled 7.55 million units, consisting of 4.79 million all-electric cars, 2.38 million plug-in hybrid cars, and 377,970 electric light commercial vehicles. Plug-in passenger cars still represented less than 1% of the world's car fleet in use. [21]

7. Blended mode - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blended_mode

   An example of plug-in hybrids that operate in blended mode while charge-depleting is the Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid. Because the Prius plug-in operates as a series-parallel hybrid, the U.S. EPA estimated its EV range for blended operation on a combination of electricity (from a fully charged battery pack) and gasoline as 11 mi (18 km) until ...
