Best electric car models on the market

Electric vehicles provide a safe and comfortable driving experience. Today, electric vehicles cost more than gasoline- or diesel-powered cars, but the gap is closing significantly, in part because of government incentives.
The EV growth trend will continue as the cost of EVs falls, charging stations become more commonplace, and battery autonomy increases. Of course, these transitions must take into account new parameters to assess whether EVs can truly meet their mobility needs. For short-range urban use, we can already say that EVs are certainly a good alternative to internal combustion engines, while for medium- and long-range EVs, it’s better to do the math first.

If you want to buy an electric vehicle for longer distances, you must ensure that the local roads and highways along the route provide an adequate network of charging infrastructure. An alternative to pure electric vehicles is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), which combines battery-electric technology with the power of a gasoline or diesel internal combustion engine, always with a range-guarantee function in the event of insufficient electric range.
In this guide, we present our picks for the best EVs and explain why now more than ever, you should consider buying an EV.

Hyundai Ionic 5

The South Korean manufacturer was one of the first to believe in electronics, investing ahead of other brands and cementing its position as an industry leader. Using a basic E-GMP platform, the Hyundai Ioniq is a mid-size electric crossover that charges quickly and efficiently. The price is still high compared to the average price, but considering the range of nearly 400 kilometers and the maximum power of more than 200 horsepower, the offer is respectable.

Kia eNiro

The Kia e-Niro is often compared to Hyundai and belongs to the same segment. Lower prices, greater range (equivalent to 455 kilometers) and a seven-year warranty on all models in the range convince Kia. Standard equipment leads the way without fear of the competition: adaptive cruise control, leather upholstery, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and wireless phone charging.

Tesla 3 model

Whether it’s the number of cars sold or the best compromise between quality and price, she remains the queen of the industry. It is available in three variants, but the entry-level version already offers more than 400 kilometers of autonomy. The interior is simple but very stylish: the central 15-inch screen is a real multimedia workstation for surfing, reading and listening to music. Last but not least, the intelligent self-driving that made Tesla famous around the world enhances the high-tech value of the car.

Volkswagen ID.3

Volkswagen has unveiled an all-electric version of its latest Golf, effectively creating its own line of self-driving electric vehicles under the ID name. The ID.3 is one of the most interesting and affordable mid-range EVs. In fact, it offers exciting driving characteristics and the proverbial Wolfsburg build quality that will delight even the most tech-savvy buyer.

Reynolds Zoe

This small French electric car is one of the most popular novelties on the market and indeed tops the best-selling car list. It’s especially popular in cities, where its limited parking space makes it versatile. The price is very convincing: easily available for less than 30,000 euros.
