Learn More 1 2023 CHEVROLET BOLT EV MSRP: As low as $27,495 Compare Model POSITIVES * New, lower price * Roomy cabin * Good range for the money CONSIDERATIONS * Tight rear seat * All-wheel drive is not available Electric Range: 259 mi Configure a new car OVERVIEW With a price lowered by almost $6,000, the 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EV is a more compelling buy than ever. Though small, the hatchback can tote a lot of stuff. The Chevrolet Bolt EV is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 2 trim levels. The most popular style is the 1LT, which starts at $27,495 and comes with an Electric engine and Front Wheel Drive. This Bolt EV is estimated to deliver 131 MPGe in the city and 109 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT The Chevrolet Bolt EV has been an engaging vehicle, but recent changes, plus a new, lower price, make it even more appealing for 2023. At 163 inches long, the Bolt EV is one of the smallest vehicles available in the U.S. That's a foot shorter than the Nissan Leaf. Far from confining, though, the Bolt EV has a roomy cabin. It has 17 cubic feet of cargo space behind its rear seats, which expands to 57 cubic feet with the seats folded down. The Bolt's short length, tight turning circle, and electric acceleration make it fun to drive, as reflected in its 6.7-second 0-60-mph time. And a driving range of more than 250 miles per charge makes road trips possible. ...See More The Chevrolet Bolt EV has been an engaging vehicle, but recent changes, plus a new, lower price, make it even more appealing for 2023.

Its shorter-than-average range is its biggest downside, but the Leaf SV Plus trim addresses that, if you're willing to spend a bit more. The Nissan LEAF is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 2 trim levels. The most popular style is the S, which starts at $29,135 and comes with an Electric engine and Front Wheel Drive. This LEAF is estimated to deliver 123 MPGe in the city and 99 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT The Nissan Leaf, introduced as a 2011 model, was the first modern mass-produced EV. But it's now in its 12th year, with just one major redesign in 2018, and has lots of competitors that are newer and have more range, power, and features. But the Leaf still has virtues. It's a well-equipped two-row hatchback that can satisfy the needs of many EV buyers looking for comfortable, roomy, reliable transportation and not consumed by range envy. The base model is the least-expensive five-seat electric crossover in the market after the $7,500 federal tax credit is applied. While it lags in range and power, it can be an economical grocery hauler and commuter car. The longer-range SV Plus trim is pricier and loaded with features, but still can't beat most potential rivals on range. Only the base Ford Mustang Mach-E has a lower starting price. Among other SV Plus competitors, the Chevrolet Bolt and Bolt EUV have lower MSRPs but are pricier once the Leaf's federal tax credit is factored in: Chevrolet EVs no longer qualify for the credit. The base Hyundai Kona Electric starts below the SV Plus but is not as well equipped. Other Kona EV and all Kia Niro EV and Volkswagen ID.4 trims are pricier. The VW is a small crossover and not really in the same class as the hatchback Leaf, but it is only slightly larger (although its maximum cargo area is double the Leaf's) and it's considered an entry-level EV by many, so we've tossed it into the mix. We don't put the Tesla Model 3 sedan (the de facto standard bearer for EVs) in the same class, either. But for comparison's sake, the rear-wheel-drive Model 3, which has 55 miles more range and a few cubic feet less cargo capacity, starts almost $12,000 higher than the Leaf SV Plus. ...See More The Nissan Leaf, introduced as a 2011 model, was the first modern mass-produced EV.

As an urban vehicle, it has few equals. The MINI Electric Hardtop is a 4-seater vehicle that comes in 1 trim levels. The most popular style is the Cooper SE FWD, which starts at $31,895 and comes with an Electric engine and Front Wheel Drive. This Electric Hardtop is estimated to deliver 119 MPGe in the city and 100 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT If you live in a city or suburb and can access EV charging at your home or in your apartment's garage, it is hard to imagine a more appealing everyday vehicle. All Minis have their own special charm, and the 2024 Mini Electric Hardtop epitomizes that while mixing in zero-emission electric propulsion. Who said saving the planet couldn't be fun? While it is true that the Mini EV doesn't offer the 200+ mile range on a charge that some of its competitors do, overall range might be getting too much attention. With its total claimed range of 114 miles, the electric Mini will suit you just fine if you drive fewer than 90 miles a day and have easy access to charging at night. With an entry price of just over $30,000, it will keep money in your pocket versus EVs that offer 200 miles of range — range that you might not need. Unfortunately, unlike some other EVs, the Mini EV doesn't qualify for the $7,500 federal income tax credit. Its status as a battery-electric zero-emission vehicle is the prime reason to put the Mini Cooper EV on your shopping list. But for urban dwellers in particular, there is a lot to like about the car beyond its propulsion system. Small and nimble, it delivers intuitive handling, satisfying acceleration, and the special joy of driving a car that isn’t like every other car on the road. Substantially shorter in overall length than its most direct competitors — the Chevrolet Bolt EV and Nissan Leaf — it still offers a roomy driver's seat and good overall interior space. Its short length makes it easy to park, and its distinctive shape and bright colors make it easy to find in a crowded lot. ...See More If you live in a city or suburb and can access EV charging at your home or in your apartment's garage, it is hard to imagine a more appealing everyday vehicle.

It could give the top-selling Tesla Model 3 sedan some real competition. The Hyundai IONIQ 6 is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 4 trim levels. The most popular style is the SEL AWD, which starts at $52,315 and comes with an Electric engine and All Wheel Drive. This IONIQ 6 is estimated to deliver 103 MPGe combined. OVERALL ASSESSMENT Hyundai's decision to make the second of its Ioniq EV models a sedan brings a welcome bit of variety to an SUV-dominated market. Its arching, aerodynamic shape helps deliver up to 361 miles of driving range, but will give design pundits plenty to argue about. We find it attractive and better looking in person than in photos. The Ioniq 6 is a well-equipped five-passenger sedan. Officially a midsize, it boasts the interior space of a large sedan thanks to an EV-specific platform, shared with the Ioniq 5, that allows for a stretched wheelbase and more cabin area. There aren't many sedans left in the market, and fewer still in the EV segment, so the Ioniq 6 pretty much stands alone. Its closest competitors likely will be the Tesla Model 3 sedan, at which it is specifically aimed, as well as the Ford Mustang Mach-E crossover, Polestar 2 hatchback sedan, and BMW i4 sedan. Ioniq 6 variants are less powerful than their rivals, and all but the BMW have more cargo space, but those are the only areas in which it falls short. And for the mainstream driver Hyundai is targeting, the power differences won't matter much. The Ioniq 6 is longer than any of them, and wider and taller than all but the Mach-E. Only the Mach- E has more total passenger space. Other likely competitors are compacts. Tesla's Model 3 is less expensive than the Ioniq 6, thanks to a series of price cuts over the past year, and it and the similarly priced Mach-E (excluding the GT models) are built in North America, which means they qualify for a federal clean car tax credit that substantially reduces their final purchase price. The BMW and Polestar are pricier than the Ioniq 6 and, like it, don't qualify for the federal tax credit. ...See More Hyundai's decision to make the second of its Ioniq EV models a sedan brings a welcome bit of variety to an SUV-dominated market.

The BMW and Polestar are pricier than the Ioniq 6 and, like it, don't qualify for the federal tax credit. 5 2022 TESLA MODEL 3 MSRP: As low as $48,190 Compare Model POSITIVES * Bracing acceleration * A top pick for driving range * Innovative tech amenities CONSIDERATIONS * Rivals' cabins are more overtly deluxe, with better fit and finish throughout * No Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone integration Electric Range: 263 - 358 mi OVERVIEW With its electrified powertrain, impressive driving range, and wealth of tech features, the Tesla Model 3 is a practical choice for those who appreciate cutting-edge innovation. However, its cabin lacks the craftsmanship seen in some competing luxury cars. The Tesla Model 3 is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 3 trim levels. The most popular style is the Standard Range Plus RWD, which starts at $48,190 and comes with an Electric engine and Rear Wheel Drive. This Model 3 is estimated to deliver 138 MPGe in the city and 126 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT The Tesla Model 3 embodies how far EVs have come in recent years. When the initial wave hit about a decade ago, EVs lived on the fringe, hobbled by limited range (the first Nissan Leaf traveled a mere 73 miles between charges) and quirky styling. Today's EVs have evolved in the best ways possible, and the Model 3 is proof. It has traits that have helped other Tesla vehicles win a wide audience: clean design, outstanding battery range, and leading-edge technology. And as the most affordable vehicle in the brand's electrified lineup, the Model 3 is a relatively accessible choice. This Tesla's economical styling cues may be too sparse for some tastes. Rival cars such as the Porsche Taycan and Mercedes-Benz EQS provide cabins that are more in line with traditional ideas regarding luxury. But overall, the sculpted, high-tech Model 3 is a leading contender for its ability to bridge the present and the future. ...See More The Tesla Model 3 embodies how far EVs have come in recent years.

It delivers classic sedan looks, a comfortable interior, loads of user-friendly infotainment technology, and stellar performance. The BMW i4 is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 3 trim levels. The most popular style is the eDrive40, which starts at $58,095 and comes with an Electric engine and Rear Wheel Drive. This i4 is estimated to deliver 109 MPGe in the city and 108 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT Exciting, innovative, and a window to the future, today's electric vehicle revolution is a wonderful moment in time. But, real talk now: It's turning out some ugly cars. Sure, style is subjective, but one of the most appealing traits of the 2023 BMW i4 is its shocking normalcy compared to its hyper-styled peers. But for the badges and a few aerodynamic bits, the i4 looks like the sleek four-door BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe. It even shares the same basic dimensions. Finely tuned suspension and steering settings, plus a low center of gravity, give the i4 the sporty and agile handling for which BMW is known. But with 335 horsepower in the base trim and up to 536 hp in the high-performance M50, the i4 vaults over its gas-powered counterparts in speed, performance, and instant low-end power. The i4 is likely to be compared with the Tesla Model 3, but it has lots more competition, ranging from the Audi e-tron and Polestar 2 to the Ford Mustang Mach-E and Kia EV6. It meets or beats most of them in range, delivering 227 to 301 miles per charge, depending on trim. It lags in cargo space, but offers more power and better performance, in both rear-wheel and all-wheel-drive versions, and its infotainment system sets a new standard. All in all, the i4 is a worthy entrant in the upscale European brands' race for dominance in the electric future. ...See More Exciting, innovative, and a window to the future, today's electric vehicle revolution is a wonderful moment in time.

It benefits from similar levels of luxury and innovation in a smaller, more affordable package. The Mercedes-Benz EQE Sedan is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 4 trim levels. The most popular style is the EQE 350 4MATIC+, which starts at $79,050 and comes with an Electric engine and All Wheel Drive. This EQE Sedan is estimated to deliver 86 MPGe in the city and 86 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT Mercedes-Benz entered the EV market by starting the EQ sub-brand, introducing the EQS sedan last year with great success. The EQS is essentially an all-electric version of the iconic Mercedes S-Class flagship and the follow-up, the new EQE sedan, is a midsize version. Even though it’s smaller and less expensive, the EQE packs a mighty punch and is an excellent choice for buyers seeking green luxury. When the 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE goes on sale later this year, it will be available in four trim levels, starting with the base EQE 350+ and climbing to the high-performance AMG EQE. In regard to the all-important range question, the EQE is estimated to return up to 400 miles on a charge, but that figure still needs to be verified with real-world testing. There’s also an EQE SUV on the way, just in case the naming isn’t confusing enough. Our initial impressions of the EQE are very favorable as it delivers all the luxury expected from Mercedes, along with potent performance and loads of technology. There aren’t any direct rivals yet, but the less expensive BMW i4 is a smaller and sportier alternative. On the other end of the spectrum are the more expensive Porsche Taycan and related Audi e-tron GT. They’re all excellent EVs and the new Mercedes EQE finds an optimal middle ground. ...See More Mercedes-Benz entered the EV market by starting the EQ sub-brand, introducing the EQS sedan last year with great success.

It's crammed with technology, and offers both power and driving range. If it had any direct competitors, the electric G80 would stand up to the best of them. The Genesis Electrified G80 is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 1 trim levels. The most popular style is the Sedan, which starts at $80,950 and comes with an Electric engine and All Wheel Drive. This Electrified G80 is estimated to deliver 105 MPGe in the city and 89 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT Its name is a bit awkward (why not just G80 EV?) but otherwise, the 2023 Genesis Electrified G80 survived the conversion from the gas-powered G80 with little to complain about. It is more of a grand tourer than a performance-oriented sport sedan, and its trunk capacity is subcompact, not midsize. Otherwise, the Electrified G80 ticks all the right boxes for a luxury midsize sedan. It doesn’t really have any direct competition; other true luxury electric sedans are either compacts or full-size. Until the midsize Mercedes-Benz EQE Sedan comes along late in 2022, the closest competition for the Electrified G80 is likely to be premium midsize EVs such as the Polestar 2 Performance and Tesla Model 3 Performance. The Electrified G80 is pricier, but in most other areas it outshines those two. It is longer, at 197 inches overall, and front legroom is not quite an inch less than the class-leading Model 3. Range and power are competitive, and while the G80 EV is a bit less efficient than its electric competitors, it puts the best of the internal combustion luxury sedans to shame. For buyers who don’t prioritize efficiency and emission-free driving, the non-electric G80 3.5T Sport could also be a worthy competitor. It shares the same platform, sumptuous interior, sporty design, and advanced technologies. While the EV has less trunk and headroom than the internal combustion version, it retains the nimble sure-footedness, power, and comfortable ride. There’s a weight disparity, though. The Electrified G80 is almost 600 pounds heavier than the gas-burning version, and that’s after shedding the latter’s glass roof and spare tire and using high-strength aluminum instead of heavier steel in an assortment of body parts. Genesis is staging a slow rollout of the 2023 Electrified G80. Availability is limited to 12 states: Arizona, California, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Utah, Virginia, and Washington. We expect most to be sent to California dealerships — the state accounts for more than 40% of all EVs sold in the U.S; the rest of them for less than 20% combined. ...See More Its name is a bit awkward (why not just G80 EV?) but otherwise, the 2023 Genesis Electrified G80 survived the conversion from the gas-powered G80 with little to complain about.

It doesn't deliver the range of some competitors, but it more than makes up for that with super-fast charging capability and a driving experience that's hard to match. The Porsche Taycan is a 4-seater vehicle that comes in 6 trim levels. The most popular style is the GTS AWD, which starts at $135,550 and comes with an Electric engine and All Wheel Drive. This Taycan is estimated to deliver 83 MPGe in the city and 82 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT While other European automakers are racing to electrify many of their vehicles, the Taycan, introduced in late 2019, remains Porsche's only EV. The four-seat performance car is close in size to the gasoline-powered Porsche Panamera and, like its stablemate, comes in both low-slung sedan and wagon body styles, the latter known as Taycan Cross Turismo. In either style, the electric Taycan delivers Porsche performance and is one of the most thrilling cars on the road, electric or otherwise. It is also a great touring car, delivering a quiet and comfortable ride despite its sports car genes. It is difficult to find a direct competitor for the Taycan — Audi's e-tron GT and RS e-tron GT sport sedans are closest. But among modern EVs of all stripes, the Taycan's range is middling at best: The Environmental Protection Agency estimates the sedan's 4S trim will go 199 miles, a range that climbs, depending on trim and battery capacity, to 227 miles for the Taycan 4S with Performance Plus battery. Range varies from 202 to 215 miles for the Taycan Cross Turismo trims. The two Audis, which are built on the same platform and share most body and drivetrain parts with the Taycan, are tuned for touring and offer 238 miles of range for the GT and 232 miles for the RS-GT. The high-performance Tesla Model S ranges from 348 miles for the Plaid trim to 375 miles for the base dual-motor trim. Helping offset its lower-than-average range is the Taycan's super-quick charging capability. A battery drained to just 10% of capacity can be recharged to 80% in under 22 minutes, a speed that replaces about 70 miles of lost range every 10 minutes. Porsche uses a dual-voltage charging system that automatically switches between 400 and 800 volts to maximize charging speed. Only a few other EVs — the two Audis, GMC Hummer EV, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, and Genesis GV80 sporty electric crossovers — offer the same 400/800-volt charging capability. The Taycan's virtues are evident in its market performance. It doubled U.S. sales in 2021 over 2020, accounting for 13% of all Porsches delivered and outselling the Panamera almost 3-to-1. Porsche dealers sold nearly as many all-electric Taycans as iconic 911 sports cars and are on track this year to keep up the same pace. This is despite the Taycan's price range, from nearly $90,000 to more than $200,000. Porsche boosted 2023 Taycan pricing by $2,500 to $4,100, depending on trim. In terms of enjoyment per mile, the Taycan is very hard to beat. But buyers will have to be patient as supply chain issues could delay delivery of some Taycan configurations for close to a year. ...See More While other European automakers are racing to electrify many of their vehicles, the Taycan, introduced in late 2019, remains Porsche's only EV.

The Mercedes-Benz EQS Sedan is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 4 trim levels. The most popular style is the EQS 450+ RWD, which starts at $105,550 and comes with an Electric engine and Rear Wheel Drive. This EQS Sedan is estimated to deliver 97 MPGe combined. OVERALL ASSESSMENT The 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQS Sedan is a visual stunner, turning heads on every street. This is the very first in what promises to be a long line of Mercede-Benz EQ fully electric vehicles. An SUV version is coming later this year. The 329-horsepower EQS 450+ is the base model, but it’s the one with the best range: 350 miles. Though the more expensive and more powerful EQS 580 is quicker, the 450+ offers the same roomy interior, smart hatchback design, and an impressive optional 56-inch-wide Hyperscreen. For those who yearn for extra power, the EQS 580 certainly won’t disappoint, considering it packs 516 hp and standard all-wheel drive. The EQS is a healthy competitor to the Tesla Model S, Porsche Taycan, and Audi e-tron GT, offering more comfort, luxury, and room than those models but with a less sporting personality. ...See More The 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQS Sedan is a visual stunner, turning heads on every street.

The Tesla Model S is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 2 trim levels. The most popular style is the Plaid, which starts at $137,190 and comes with an Electric engine and All Wheel Drive. This Model S is estimated to deliver 119 MPGe in the city and 112 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT With the volume and variety of Tesla vehicles now swarming roads in certain parts of the country (we're looking at you, California), it is easy to forget the Model S is the car that made EVs practical and desirable — and Elon Musk a household name. Tesla being Tesla, the company doesn't follow the traditional redesign/refresh cadence of most automakers, but a de facto 2021 model year refresh tweaked the aging exterior design of the Model S, added a new horizontally oriented infotainment screen in the dash and a small screen for rear-seat passengers, and introduced a controversial steering yoke. The 2022 Model S still doesn't include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, and its cabin is spartan compared to new EV competitors such as the Mercedes-Benz EQS and Porsche Taycan that offer more luxurious and updated interiors. But with its long range (and extensive Tesla's Supercharger network), generous cargo space, and first-class technology, the Model S in many ways still rules the luxe EV sedan roost. ...See More With the volume and variety of Tesla vehicles now swarming roads in certain parts of the country (we're looking at you, California), it is easy to forget the Model S is the car that made EVs practical and desirable — and Elon Musk a household name.

Downsides are its lack of trunk space and subpar range compared to some competitors. The Audi e-tron GT is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 2 trim levels. The most popular style is the Premium Plus, which starts at $106,395 and comes with an Electric engine and All Wheel Drive. This e-tron GT is estimated to deliver 81 MPGe in the city and 83 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT Like its Porsche Taycan cousin, the 2023 Audi e-tron GT offers a sporty grand touring option with tremendous performance that doesn't come at the cost of a jolting, uncomfortable ride. It is low, long, curvy as all get out, and it combines the road manners of a highway cruiser with the handling capabilities of a true sports car. The success of the Tesla Model S, and more recently, the enthusiastic reception for cars such as the Lucid Air, Mercedes-Benz EQS, and BMW i4, shows that there's a market for electric luxury sedans, and Audi's e-tron GT is one of the sportiest and best-looking players in that field. It has some flaws, though. With only 238 miles of range on a full charge, it trails all competitors but the Porsche Taycan. And while its 800-volt charging system makes it one of the fastest recharging EVs in the market, it still has less than half the range of the segment-leading Lucid Air and nearly 25% less than the Model S Performance. It also is one of the segment's least efficient models in its consumption of electricity. The e-tron GT's sleek styling also costs in the cargo department. It has much less trunk capacity than the Model S, Lucid Air, or Mercedes EQS. ...See More Like its Porsche Taycan cousin, the 2023 Audi e-tron GT offers a sporty grand touring option with tremendous performance that doesn't come at the cost of a jolting, uncomfortable ride.

The BMW i7 is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 1 trim levels. The most popular style is the xDrive60, which starts at $120,295 and comes with an Electric engine and All Wheel Drive. This i7 is estimated to deliver 81 MPGe in the city and 85 MPGe on the highway. OVERALL ASSESSMENT The BMW i7 is an all-electric full-sized sedan designed to rival the Lucid Air, Mercedes-Benz EQS Sedan, Porsche Taycan, and Tesla Model S. Its pricing is similar, but it offers excellent advanced technology, including BMW's Level 2 autonomous driving system (called Highway Assistant), which allows semi-autonomous operation on pre-mapped highways at speeds of up to 85 mph.
