Vehicle-to-load charging (V2L)

AC charging for EVs is essentially slow charging, often used when charging at home or work.

DC charging bypasses the onboard converter of (EVs) to allow for much faster charging than AC charging.

CHAdeMO charging provides high-voltage direct current (DC) to quickly charge EV batteries.

CCS charging combines AC and DC connectors into a single plug for versatility and speed.

Rapid charging for electric cars is a high-speed charging method that delivers a significant amount of power to the vehicle's battery in a short period, typically using DC charging.

A battery electric vehicle (BEV) uses the electrical energy from rechargeable batteries to power an electric motor (or motors).

A supercharger is a form of forced induction that forces more air into the cylinders of an engine to produce more power.

A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is a vehicle that has a slightly larger battery than a regular hybrid, so it travels further just using electricity.

A chassis is the structural framework of a vehicle that supports all of its components.

KiloWatts per hour (kWh) is the measurement of energy that an electric vehicle can store in its batteries. 

Kilometres per hour is a measurement of speed, expressing the number of kilometres that can be travelled in one hour.

An electric car, also known as a battery electric vehicle or EV, uses one or more electric motors to move the vehicle.

Vehicle-to-load charging is a feature that allows an electric vehicle to use its own energy to power external devices.
