Issues and Foresight

Electric vehicles
All-electric vehicles operate with a battery and an electric motor. The large-capacity battery has to be recharged with the vehicle stationary at a charging station.
Issues and Foresight

Hybrid vehicles
The vehicle is equipped with a combined IC/electric powertrain system and two energy storage systems: a fuel tank and a battery.
Issues and Foresight

Internal combustion engines
Since they were invented, cars have mainly operated with 4-stroke internal combustion engines. In Europe, these have either been gasoline (spark ignition) or diesel engines.
