Abstract
Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming popular and are gaining more focus and awareness due to several factors, namely the decreasing prices and higher environmental awareness. EVs are classified into several categories in terms of energy production and storage. The standard EV technologies that have been developed and tested and are commercially available include the fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), the battery-electric vehicles, the plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, the hybrid electric vehicles, and the flexible fuel vehicles. Yet, the FCEVs show relatively small superiority over the other technologies from autonomy and refueling. The paper presents a review of EVs focusing on hydrogen FCEVs with the above matters in mind. More specifically, an examination of the FCEV technology and their prospective worldwide is investigated in this work.
