With ever‐increasing concern on energy diversification, energy efficiency, and environmental protection, electric vehicles (EVs), including pure electric vehicle (PEV), hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), and fuel‐cell electric vehicle (FEV) are becoming attractive for road transportation. This chapter discusses the classification of EVs. In general, EVs are classified as the PEV, HEV, and FEV types on the basis of their energy sources and the propulsion devices. Currently, the conventional HEV has been commercially available and widely accepted as an energy‐efficient and environment‐friendly vehicle, while the PEV is becoming commercially available and tagged with a zero‐emission label. The chapter presents key technologies for various types of EVs, with emphasis on their emerging research activities. Among them, the motor drive technology is most actively developed in recent years where there are many innovations and advancements in the design, analysis, and control of motor drives.
