Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV)

A Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV) is a type of car that operates primarily on electricity stored in its batteries, which can be recharged by plugging into an electrical outlet or charging station. Unlike traditional gasoline-powered cars, PEVs produce no tailpipe emissions, making them more environmentally friendly. They often have a limited range on a single charge but can be used as everyday transportation with the convenience of home charging. PEVs contribute to reducing reliance on fossil fuels and can be more cost-effective over time due to lower fuel and maintenance costs.
