  • There are more electric vehicles on the market than ever before.

  • I've tested close to 30 of them, ranging in price from under $20,000 to more than $2 million.

  • Here's what I thought of each.

There are more electric vehicles on the US market than ever before, and I've tested close to 30 — ranging from unattainable luxury cars to bargain-bin commuters. Some, I'd buy in a heartbeat. Others, not so much.

Trying to decide which is best for you? Here's what I thought of each.

Audi RS E-Tron GT

The Audi E-Tron GT is a four-door speed demon that hits 60 mph in just over three seconds and looks badass while doing it. The RS version kicks things up a notch.

The F-150 Lightning is quiet and packed with quirks like a front trunk and mobile-generator capabilities, but the electric truck's superpower is just how normal it feels.

Ford Mustang Mach-E

Kia EV6

With mind-bending acceleration, 446 miles of range, and spaceship-like looks, the Lucid Air Grand Touring Performance is one of the most impressive cars I've ever driven. That'll cost you around $150,000, but the base model comes in at $82,400

Mercedes-Benz EQB SUV

Although the aging Nissan Leaf hatchback doesn't have the range or charging speeds to keep up with modern offerings, its $28,000 starting price is tough to beat.

Polestar 2

You may not have heard of Polestar yet. But you will. The Polestar 2 sports a minimalist interior, a wonderful Google operating system, and distinctive styling that's somewhere between a sedan and a small SUV.
