A range extender is an auxiliary power unit (APU) that provides the vehicle with additional energy to complement the primary battery in propelling the vehicle . According to the 2012 Amendments to the Zero Emission Vehicle Regulations, a range-extended battery EV should comply, among others, with the following criteria :
Range-extended EVs (REEVs) are seen as a potential solution to the limited range and high cost of EVs. A range extender is an auxiliary power unit (APU) that provides the vehicle with additional energy to complement the primary battery in propelling the vehicle .
A range extender can also reduce the consumption of the range-extending fuel (such as gasoline) by using the primary fuel (such as battery power), while still maintaining the driving range of a single-fuel vehicle powered by a fuel such as gasoline.
For this reason, the concept of Range Extender (RE) is created. It is essentially an auxiliary power unit (APU) that can be installed within a BEV. The APU has no direct role in propulsion of the vehicle, and its sole purpose is to charge the battery. As a result, the APU can be operated at maximum efficiency and only when necessary.
In recent years, the concept of a zinc-air (Zn-air) battery as a range extender for EVs has also been investigated. Andwari et al. analyzed the barriers for market penetration of EVs and the technological readiness of different components of battery electric vehicles (BEVs).

A future possibility would be to replace the piston engine with a micro gas-turbine as the range extender. Jaguar has produced the C-X75 hybrid concept car, which is an E-REV with two small gas turbines (each 35 kg) to charge the battery (15-kWh lithium-ion). Four 145-kW electric motors, one at each of the wheels, can drive the 1350-kg vehicle up to 205 mph (330 km h −1) with a …

A range extender is a fuel-based auxiliary power unit (APU) that extends the range of a battery electric vehicle by driving an electric generator that charges the vehicle''s battery. This arrangement is known as a series hybrid drivetrain. The most commonly used range extenders are internal combustion engines, but fuel-cells or other engine types can be used.
In EREVs (Extended-range electric vehicles), the combustion engine functions solely as a generator and doesn''t directly drive the vehicles. This allows for a substantial electric-only driving range, often comparable to PHEVs. When the battery''s charge is low, users can either activate the generator or opt for a quick DC charge.
