Top 5 Longest Range Electric Cars

Range is the most crucial aspect to consider when buying an electric vehicle. You need to know that you can reach your destination without the risk of running out of charge. 

Depending on the vehicle’s make and model, they will have different battery capacities and a variety of mileage. Some people may only need enough to travel short distances, while others may need more for longer commutes.

If you want to invest in the electric market and need a vehicle for a long commute, here is a list of the top 5 longest-range electric cars. 

Ford Mustang Mach-e

We start with the highest-range electric vehicle. The Ford Mustang Mach e Extended Range RWD (Rear Wheel Drive) offers 379 miles. It consists of a 98.7kWh battery, one of the largest available. Ford has brought the combination of sports car performance and zero-emission driving to life through the Mach e. A high-power charging station can add 73 miles in a 10-minute charge. The 15.5-inch touchscreen features voice control, connected navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay, and wireless Android Auto, including FordPass Connect with 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot capability. To match the considerable mileage, the Mach e has an unbeatable space with a 402-litre boot, big enough to hold everyone’s luggage for a long road trip.

Kia EV6

Kia’s most dynamic and sustainable vehicle to date is the EV6. There are a couple of battery options to suit your range requirements, which are a 58kWh or a 77.4 kWh battery, giving generous mileage. The latter offers 328 miles on a full charge and you can choose rear or full-wheel drive. On a rapid charge, the battery can be topped up from 10 - 80 % in 18 minutes. If you require a boost without wanting to charge your vehicle fully, 4.5 minutes at a fast charging point will give you an extra 60 miles on the clock. Immersed in innovative technology, the EV6 has a 12.3-inch display giving you a digital driving experience while the AR head-up display projects information in your line of sight, plus an added Wi-Fi hotspot.
