BMW unveiled its all-electric i7 concept at the 2021 Munich Motor Show. This luxury EV was part of BMW's push for a fully electric 7 Series. Its look drew "gasps," "wows," and several nods of approval. The i7 xDrive60 with 19-inch wheels has several impressive electric features.

Although BMW expanded the i7 options with new trims, the spotlight is on the dual-motor AWD  i7 xDrive60. This sleek BMW has a performance complemented by a suite of driver assistance.

15. Chevrolet Equinox EV: 319 Miles

If the journey of a thousand miles begins with a step, Chevrolet took a giant leap when it first introduced the Equinox EV at CES in January 2022. Although there were delays, production started in early 2024. By May, their stylish, compact SUVs were in dealerships with promising features.

15. Estimated Price: $40,000+

By August 2024, this EV with Chevy's Super Cruise for hands-free driving became Mexico's top-produced EV. They quickly reached the 35,000-unit mark because its $30,000 price tag was within reach for most EV buyers. But the real money maker was the range, especially for the FWD version.

15. Chevrolet Benefited From A Tesla Partnership

For that price, 319 miles was a steal. Then, there was fast charging, which added 77 miles in 10 minutes. Chevy's partnership with Tesla for their Supercharger network made Equinox EV forget what range anxiety feels like. Rides got more entertaining with the 17.7-inch infotainment screen in 2LT trims.

14. Tesla Model Y —320–337 Miles

In 2020, Tesla introduced the Model Y SUV on the same platform as their Model 3 sedan. EV buyers loved its quick steering and impressive acceleration. The Long-Range variant, with a 320-mile range, raised the bar for electric SUVs. But Tesla wasn't done.

EV enthusiasts became interested in the Mach-E after seeing the sleek design, advanced technology, and extended range options of its production version.

11. Ford F-150 Lightning: 320 Miles

The F-150 is another iconic Ford car that deserves an electric version. This pickup truck has been America's best-selling vehicle for over three decades. Thankfully, Ford didn't disappoint. Early reviews praised its impressive 320-mile range when it hit the market, especially the Flash and Lariat trims.

The Model X is why Teslas got so popular. When the carmaker announced this model in 2012, it was the talk of the world as the company's first SUV and a new contender in the EV market. But it wasn't your average SUV; you could tell from the looks.

9. Tesla Kept Improving This Model From 2012

The Model X had a panoramic windshield, falcon-wing doors, and an advanced powertrain. As the years passed, Tesla added new, improved variants.

8. Mercedes-EQ EQS SUV: 339 Miles

Mercedes-Benz expanded its EQ lineup in 2022 with the EQS 450+. This luxury SUV gives premium driving to those who can afford its steep price tag. While the SUV has a lower range than the sixth-placed EQS sedan, it's more comfortable and has enough space for seven passengers.

8. Estimated Price: $105,000+

When you have a 118 kWh battery generating 355 HP, covering 60 mph in 6.5 seconds is as easy as a knife going through butter. But that's not all. Imagine an interior with MANUFAKTUR Nappa leather and MBUX Hyperscreen. Then, a glass display that shows driver, central, and passenger controls.

7. Tesla Model 3: 342 Miles

Tesla launched the Model 3 in 2017 as a smaller premium version and more affordable sibling to the Model S. They had to speed up production when it became the world's best-selling electric car. Many EV buyers couldn't resist the 342 miles on the Long Range AWD variant.

7. Estimated Price: $43,000+

Despite the success, Tesla didn't stop upgrading the Model 3. They put a better suspension for smoother rides and more comfort. Although buyers preferred the old turn signal stalk to recent touch-sensitive controls on the steering wheel, the Supercharger offering 175 miles in 15 minutes felt like a good bargain.

6. Mercedes-EQ EQS Sedan: 352 Miles

In 2020, Mercedes-Benz launched the EQS in 2021 after unveiling the previous year's concept. Like Dord and their F-150, they wanted to bring their iconic S-Class into the electric era.

6. Estimated Price: $105,000+

This EQS has a powerful 108.4 kWh battery and kW DC fast charging from 10% to 80% in 31 minutes. The non-AMG powertrains got as many positive reviews as the sedans' handling with RWD. However, many drivers weren't comfortable with the large MBUX Hyperscreen display and touch-sensitive controls.

5. Hyundai Ioniq 6: 361 Miles

When Hyundai wanted to rival Tesla's Model 3 in 2022, they built the Ioniq 6. It was the second model in their all-electric lineup, but this sleek sedan gained attention with an EPA-estimated 361-mile range. As of 2024, it's in the top five. Hyundai's attempt paid off.

4. Rivian R1S: 400 Miles

Rivian launched the R1S in 2022 as its first-ever electric SUV. Since there were other SUVs in the market from bigger brands, they had to do more to gain attention. Rivian made the R1S into an SUV that could go off-road to make it appealing to more drivers.

4. Estimated Price: $95,000

3. Tesla Model S: 402 Miles

Like other Teslas, the Model S changed how people saw electric cars. It showed the world that EVs could be fast, spacious, and "good-looking"—pardon the term. In 2020, the Long Range Plus came with an EPA-estimated 402-mile range. Long-distance travel was secured, but Tesla didn't stop there.

2. Estimated Price: $90,000+

Rivian didn't stop with speed. They designed the RIT to tow trailers or boats weighing 11,000 pounds or less—luxury and off-road in one truck. Then, Rivian thoughtfully added a heat pump system to improve efficiency in cold weather so the battery doesn't lose power to inefficient heating.

1. Lucid Air: 469–516 Miles

"I'm delighted that our Lucid Air Dream Edition Range has been officially accredited with a range of 520 miles by the EPA". That was Peter Rawlinson, CEO and CTO of Lucid Group, on September 16, 2021. Lucid had set a record—one that erased doubts and made range anxiety past tense.

1. Estimated Price: $111,000+

Surprisingly, Lucid didn't install an oversized battery pack. Instead, they used a race-proven 900V battery, BMS technology, miniaturized drive units, and Wunderbox technology. This unusual combo gave Lucid more miles from less battery energy—at least 100+ miles over its closest competitor.
