Ranking

Longest-range EVs: 2018 model year

Every EV in the catalog with a published EPA range, longest first. EPA range is the official combined rating from the window sticker; real-world range moves with speed, temperature and wheel size.

Published specs, not John’s test results. His score shows where he has scored a car; it never changes the order.

Data: EPA range: fueleconomy.gov (EPA) for 24. Values last checked October 24, 2026.

How this list is made

Longer bar, more range. Bars are measured from zero against the top value; the dark tick marks the average of all 24 ranked here.
Scores are John’s, shown only where he has scored a car, and they don’t affect the order. How John scores.
Each car’s page lists the source of every figure and when it was last checked.
