Top 10 electric cars

 

1. 10.Tesla Model S

   

   "There’s no denying the Model S is a mightily impressive achievement - and from a company whose only previous credit was a Lotus Elise-based roadster. A usable amount of range, decent handling and plenty of tech-y appeal, the Model S has made the mainstream manufacturers sit up and take notice."

2. BMW i3

   

   "The i3 remains the best premium small EV out there. Hard to argue against. Just be prepared to pay proper money."

3. Hyundai Kona Electric

   

   "The Kona Electric was a bit of a game-changer when it was launched. Now, a couple of years down the line, there’s more competition and it’s not quite as good value. But it’s still in the mix. One of the best all-round, reasonably priced EVs you can buy today, if range is your key concern when it comes to all-electric motoring and you can’t stretch to a Tesla, Jaguar I-Pace or similar, the Kona has to be on your shortlist. Could easily be your only car."

4. Ford Mustang Mach-E

   

   "Make up your own mind about the look of the car and what it says about you, but be in no doubt that underneath this is a fundamentally very well executed machine. It treads the fine line between lifestyle and family versatility as deftly as either the Polestar 2 or Jaguar I-Pace, and like them has a bit about it dynamically. Put simply, for an electric car it’s engaging to drive."

5. Skoda Enyaq iV

6. "Once more Skoda has built a car that could well be a better buy than the equivalent Volkswagen. Won’t know for sure until we test them together in comparable specs, but on first impressions the Enyaq edges the ID.4 on several fronts. It drives just as well as its cousin but has a less annoying, more practical interior and is cheaper to buy.

7. Audi e-tron 

8. "Is it better than a Taycan? It offers a fraction more comfort and space and a smidge less speed, but really the differences are minute. It’ll come down to which brand you prefer and which body you’re drawn to – and on that basis the e-tron GT is in with a shout of ruffling some feathers in Stuttgart.

11. Polestar

12. "We love the Polestar 2 because it’s handsome, the build quality will give Audi drivers PTSD, and there’s a real sense of common sense about the car – that it’s been designed to work seamlessly, not to wow you with gimmicks then wind you up further down the line.

16. Honda

17. "It’s the Urban EV Concept that became a legend, the legend that became a prototype and the prototype that became the dinkiest, most desirable car since the Suzuki Jimny. It’s the Honda e, Honda’s first mass-market pure-electric car, and we want one.

19. 1. Tesla Model 3

       

       "The Model 3 was Top Gear’s 2019 saloon of the year, beating the old guard and maintaining its lead of the new EV pretenders. It’s been in production since mid-2017, but even heading into middle age, nothing on the market has yet managed to beat the Model 3 on all fronts. While not without flaws, it is quite simply one of the most interesting, compelling cars in the world right now."

    2. Porsche Taycan & Taycan Cross Turismo

       

       "The Cross Turismo is the most complete fast estate available today. Not the biggest or most practical by a long chalk, but in terms of its breadth of ability and fulfilling the role it sets out for itself, it is brilliant. We’d have it over an Audi RS6 or any Panamera. Only the rowdier E63 could possibly tempt us to the petrol side."
