Outstanding EV Award

1. Tesla Model 3

9/10

Tesla Model 3 review

Battery range up to 394 miles

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. Mercedes EQS

9/10

Mercedes EQS review

Battery range up to 464 miles

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.

New Mercedes EQS

From £105,610

3. Tesla Model S

8/10

Tesla Model S review

Battery range up to 393 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.

4. Ford Mustang Mach-E

8/10

Ford Mustang Mach-E review

Battery range up to 379 miles

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.

New Ford Mustang Mach-E

From £42,447 (£419* / month)

5. Tesla Model X

8/10

Tesla Model X review

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.

6. Volkswagen ID.3

7/10

Volkswagen ID3 review

Battery range up to 347 miles

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.

New Volkswagen ID3

From £35,553 (£290* / month)

7. Skoda Enyaq

8/10

Skoda Enyaq review

Battery range up to 351 miles

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.

New Skoda Enyaq

From £38,587 (£349* / month)

8. Polestar 2

8/10

Polestar 2 review

Battery range up to 406 miles

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.

New Polestar 2

From £44,950 (£384* / month)

9. Volkswagen ID.4

7/10

Volkswagen ID4 review

Battery range up to 337 miles

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.

New Volkswagen ID4

From £37,853 (£356* / month)

10. Audi Q4 E-tron Sportback

7/10

Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron review

Battery range up to 339 miles

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.
