Best electric cars by range
You may have heard of range anxiety - the fear of being stranded in an electric car if its battery power runs out. Pick one of these electric vehicles with a long range to allay those fears.
1. Tesla Model 3
Battery range up to 374 miles
carwow price from
£562* / month
(£48,490)
The Tesla Model 3 may be the brand’s cheapest model, but it doesn’t feel like an effort in cost-cutting. Rather with an impressive range and equally as scintillating performance, there’s a lot to like — just don’t expect bargain-basement prices.
2. Tesla Model S
Battery range up to 396 miles
Despite being something of a stalwart now, the Tesla Model S continues to offer one of the longest ranges out of any electric car out there. There’s a high-performance Plaid version too if you want to sacrifice distance for speed — though build quality isn’t quite on par with other EVs.
3. Ford Mustang Mach-E
Battery range up to 379 miles
carwow price from
£617* / month
(£50,576)
You may think big SUVs wouldn’t be particularly efficient, but the Ford Mustang Mach E proves that doesn’t need to be the case. The muscle car-inspired SUV can go the distance in style and with impressive performance, though it’s not the most practical of choices.
4. Tesla Model X
Battery range up to 351 miles
Despite being pretty large and tech-laden, the Tesla Model X still manages to post an impressive range — and little else will catch attention like its gullwing doors. Like the ageing Model S though, there’s room for improvement in quality.
5. Volkswagen ID.3
Battery range up to 340 miles
carwow price from
£365* / month
(£34,419)
The Volkswagen ID3 is just as impressive an all-rounder as the Golf, but with even more space and an eco-friendly electric setup. It posts an impressive range in its large battery guises, but you’ll not have to search hard to find some low-quality trim bits.
6. Skoda Enyaq
Battery range up to 339 miles
carwow price from
£485* / month
(£38,586)
The Skoda Enyaq is an honest SUV that offers impressive function, even if its form isn’t going to turn heads. Not that you should let that put you off — it’s an impressively capable and great-driving SUV.
7. Polestar 2
Battery range up to 342 miles
carwow price from
£444* / month
The Polestar 2 may be new to you, but this Swedish EV is worth a look. It takes all that’s good about Volvo — the classy design and cutting edge safety tech — and packs in an impressive electric setup. You don’t get a dedicated charging network unlike in a Tesla, though.
8. Volkswagen ID.4
Battery range up to 328 miles
carwow price from
£404* / month
(£36,809)
The VW IID4 takes all that’s good about the ID3 — the impressive space, decent tech and strong electric setup — and packs it into an even more practical SUV. As cool as it is though, high-spec versions can get a little pricey.
9. Audi Q4 E-tron Sportback
Battery range up to 320 miles
carwow price from
£637* / month
(£51,303)
If space and style are high on your list, the Audi Q4 E-Tron Sportback is worth a look. This coupe-styled SUV has loads of space in the back despite its sloping roofline and is seriously comfortable on the move too. Just expect to fork out a fair bit for options.
10. Mercedes EQS
With one of the largest batteries out there — 108kWh, to be precise — it’s no surprise the Mercedes EQS tops the range charts. Not only that, but it’s one of the poshest electric saloons out there — although it doesn’t come cheap.
