An electric vehicle uses one or more electric motors for propulsion. It can be powered by a collector system, with electricity from extravehicular sources,
or it can be powered autonomously by a battery (sometimes charged by solar panels, or by converting fuel to electricity using fuel cells or a generator).
EVs include, but are not limited to, road and rail vehicles, surface and underwater vessels, electric aircraft, and electric spacecraft.
