Abstract
Transportation electrification continues to evolve as a cornerstone strategy in global climate action. However, the increasing integration of Electric Vehicles (EVs) into urban mobility systems introduces new vulnerabilities during disruptive events such as wildfires, floods, cyberattacks, and grid failures. This 2025 review critically evaluates the state-of-theart advancements in EV mobility resilience, focusing on recent developments in charging infrastructure, disaster planning, and evacuation logistics. We extend previous findings by incorporating insights from real-world disruptions (e.g., 2023-2024 climate-related events), advancements in vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technologies, and the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI)driven evacuation planning. Particular emphasis is placed on the interplay between smart grids, decentralized charging networks, and adaptive routing during emergencies. The study identifies persistent gaps related to congestion management, mixed fleet behavior, and equity in access to emergency infrastructure. The findings aim to support policy development, infrastructure planning, and technological innovation that enhance the role of EVs as both mobility assets and energy resources during future disruptive events.
