Tesla EVs - High Range With Little Reward
Teslas might barely tip the scales in max range, but followed by a long list of problems that aren’t worth the effort. The base-model Tesla Model S can get up to 410 miles of range, making it the highest-rated Tesla in this year’s current lineup. Does that make it a good EV? Not precisely. Tesla’s other all-electric cars average at just over 300 miles of range, but as you’ve seen, Kia EVs in Bedford can easily meet 300 miles at a much lower MSRP and with additional features that give them greater value.
Ford EVs - Average Range With Not Too Many Options
Ford might be placing their hands in some untapped markets, but with less-than-ideal range ratings. The Mustang Mach-E is arguably their most exciting EV, but many of the available trims fall at around 260 miles of range. Ford’s only other all-electric options are the F-150 Lightning pickup and the E-Transit commercial van, but those vehicle types might not be what you’re looking for.
