EV stands for electric vehicle. EVs have an electric motor instead of an internal combustion engine and are powered by batteries rather than gasoline. Zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) are vehicles that do not emit exhaust or pollutants due to their power source. All EVs, including e-bikes and e-scooters, are considered zero-emission vehicles, except plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), which still use gasoline or diesel in addition to a battery.
