A battery electric vehicle (BEV) uses an electric motor instead of an internal combustion engine. These vehicles use large traction battery packs to power the motor. While the manufacturing of ICEVs has seemingly stalled in reducing carbon emissions, EVs have a cleaner and ever-improving future ahead. THE BOTTOM LINE.
