electromovilidad; movilidad eléctrica: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que la voz "electromovilidad", que se escribe sin espacio ni guion intermedios, está creada correctamente a partir del elemento compositivo "electro-", que significa "electricidad" o "eléctrico", y el sustantivo "movilidad". Tanto "electromovilidad" como "movilidad eléctrica" son apropiadas en español para referirse al uso de vehículos impulsados por uno o más motores eléctricos, lo que hace innecesario el empleo del anglicismo "electromobility" o de su forma abreviada "e-mobility". 2, record 1, Spanish, - electromovilidad
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
e-movilidad: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que, como recoge el Diccionario panhispánico de dudas, no conviene utilizar el prefijo inglés "e-", que en este caso no sustituye a "electronic", sino a "electric" o "electrical", para formar derivados híbridos como "e-movilidad". 2, record 1, Spanish, - electromovilidad
