Hyundai, Ford and Stellantis are planning to introduce larger EVs with gas generators to solve range anxiety. The automakers aim to boost electric vehicle range by incorporating onboard gasoline engines that act as generators to recharge batteries while driving. This hybrid approach addresses consumer concerns about limited driving range and charging infrastructure.

The strategy combines electric propulsion with gasoline-powered range extension to make EVs more practical for long-distance travel. By adding gas generators, the companies hope to increase adoption of electric vehicles among drivers who fear running out of charge. The move reflects ongoing efforts to balance EV benefits with real-world usability needs.
