The key electric_car=* is in use to refer to cars with an electric motor explicitly. For example, it might be used to tag an access rule that allows electric vehicles only but bans those with a combustion engine.

The precise definition might depend on local customs: This category might be ambiguous according to local law, e.g. Germany has signs referring to cars being registered as electric vehicles ("E-Kennzeichen"), but don't include any other electric cars.
