A vehicle is a means of transportation, such as a car, truck, or train, that is capable of moving people or goods from one place to another. Vehicles can be classified based on various factors, such as the type of fuel they use (e.g. gasoline, diesel, electricity), the number of wheels they have (e.g. two, four, six), and their intended use (e.g. passenger transportation). Vehicles may have connectors, such as plug sockets or fuel ports, that allow them to be connected to other devices or systems to form Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) technology. For example, an Electric Vehicle (EV) may have a charging port that allows it to be connected to an electric power source to recharge its batteries such Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) as one of the V2X forms. One of the challenges in charging EVs is the availability of charging infrastructure. In many places, there are relatively few public charging stations, which can make it difficult for EV owners to find a place to charge their vehicles when they are away from home. Additionally, charging an electric vehicle can take significantly longer time than filling up a gasoline-powered vehicle, which can be inconvenient for some drivers. In this review, the various topologies of V2X, connectors, charging challenges, and EV impact types on the grid are conducted.
