   The final type of motor didn't exist in EVs until recently because conventional wisdom held that brushless motors, which describes the motors above, were the only viable option for an electric ...

3. Electric car - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_car

   The term "electric car" typically refers specifically to battery electric vehicles (BEVs) or all-electric cars, a type of electric vehicle (EV) that has an onboard rechargeable battery pack that can be plugged in and charged from the electric grid, and the electricity stored on the vehicle is the only energy source that provide propulsion for ...

4. Electric vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_vehicle

   There are different ways that a hybrid electric vehicle can combine the power from an electric motor and the internal combustion engine. The most common type is a parallel hybrid that connects the engine and the electric motor to the wheels through mechanical coupling. In this scenario, the electric motor and the engine can drive the wheels ...

5. Mild hybrid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mild_hybrid

   Mild hybrids (MHEV) (also known as smart hybrids, power-assist hybrids, battery-assisted hybrid vehicles or BAHVs) are generally cars with an internal combustion engine (ICE) equipped with a minimally extended battery and an auxiliary electric combined motor and generator in a parallel hybrid configuration that is only enough for an electric-only mode of propulsion at slow speed and allows the ...

6. Traction motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_motor

   The rotating shaft of the motor was also the axle for the wheels. In the case of French TGV power cars, a motor mounted to the power car's frame drives each axle; a "tripod" drive allows a small amount of flexibility in the drive train allowing the trucks bogies to pivot. By mounting the relatively heavy traction motor directly to the power car ...

7. Electric vehicle conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_vehicle_conversion

   In automobile engineering, electric vehicle conversion is the replacement of a car's combustion engine and connected components with an electric motor and batteries, to create a battery electric vehicle (BEV). There are two main aims for converting an internal combustion engine vehicle (aka combustion vehicle) to run as a battery-electric vehicle.

8. Battery electric vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_electric_vehicle

   A battery electric vehicle (BEV), pure electric vehicle, only-electric vehicle, fully electric vehicle or all-electric vehicle is a type of electric vehicle (EV) that uses electrical energy exclusively from an on-board battery pack to power one or more electric traction motors, on which the vehicle solely relies for propulsion.

9. Individual wheel drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Individual_wheel_drive

   Concept (top view): In a vehicle, motors M1 through M4 drive respective wheels independently, possibly through respective gear arrangements. Individual-wheel drive (IWD) is an automobile design in which the vehicle has an all-wheel drive powertrain that consists of multiple independent traction motors each supplying torque to a single drive wheel.
