Electric vehicles, the future of transportation powered by machine learning: a brief review

Abstract

Abstract Over the past decade, the world has experienced a remarkable shift in the automotive landscape, as electric vehicles (EVs) have appeared as a viable and increasingly popular alternative to the long-standing dominance of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and their ability to absorb the surplus of electricity generated from renewable sources. This paper presents a detailed examination of the different categories of EVs, charging methods and explores energy generation systems tailored for EVs. As vehicle complexity and road congestion increase with the growth of EVs, the need for intelligent transport systems to improve road safety and efficiency becomes imperative. Machine learning (ML), recognized as a powerful approach for adaptive and predictive system development, has gained importance in the vehicle domain. By employing a variety of algorithms, ML effectively addresses pressing issues related to electric vehicles, including battery management, range optimization, and energy consumption. This paper conducts a brief review of ML methods, including both traditional and applied approaches, to address energy consumption issues in EVs, such as range estimation and prediction, as well as range optimization.
