How do electric cars work?
Quiet, refined and with an exhilarating driving character unique to electrified vehicles, Battery Electric vehicles run on electric power alone. Instead of an engine and fuel tank they use electric motors powered by a battery. Easy to charge* at home or on the move, they have a key role to play in the development of low-emission mobility solutions.
