Vehicles that have one or more batteries in place of fuel tank along with an electric motor instead of the conventional internal combustion engine are called electric vehicles (EVs). There are various types of EVs such as battery electric vehicles (BEVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in electric vehicle (PEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), and fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV). Different EVs have different battery charging methods. HEVs are the ones that can be propelled using electric source of energy as well as conventional fuels. EVs produce zero emissions and HEVs produce tailpipe emissions only when they are being propelled using conventional fuels. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of electric vehicle engineering. Different approaches, evaluations and detailed studies on electric vehicles have been included herein. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language, and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
