Good news. BEVs save the car industry, which is destroying cities, but it really hurts the oil industry, which destroys the world.
What are BEVs?
Battery Electric Vehicles
Oh, instead of ones that convert petrol to electricity?
Instead of plugin hybrids, which have both a combustion engine for petrol and a relatively large rechargeable battery. Also it does not include hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
I thought just “EV” didn’t include hybrids
BEV: battery-electric
FCEV: fuel-cell electric (hydrogen)
(P)HEV: (plug in) hybrid-electric
All of them are part of the EVs.
