New energy vehicles are not completely equivalent to electric vehicles. Although there is a certain overlap between the two, their definitions and scopes are different.
Electric vehicle: Electric vehicles refer to vehicles that use on-board power as power and drive the wheels through motors, and must meet the requirements of all road traffic and safety regulations. Electric vehicles include pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles, and fuel cell electric vehicles.
New energy vehicle: New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources, or use conventional fuels but use new on-board power devices, combined with advanced technologies in vehicle power control and drive, to form advanced technical principles, new technologies and new structures. New energy vehicles include pure electric vehicles, extended-range electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, hydrogen engine vehicles, etc.
Differences and connections
Differences: The definition of new energy vehicles is broader, covering types of vehicles that use unconventional fuels and advanced technologies, while electric vehicles mainly refer to vehicles that use batteries as power. New energy vehicles include not only electric vehicles, but also other types of vehicles such as extended-range electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and fuel cell electric vehicles, etc.
Connection: Pure electric vehicles are both electric vehicles and new energy vehicles, and the two have certain overlaps in definition.
