Best electric cars to buy 2022

Once the choice of EVs was severely limited, as was their range and, let’s be honest, desirability. Now however, as sales figures begin to rise (reaching 10 million globally at the end of 2020) and battery capability expands, there’s been an explosion of options as car companies compete to be the petrol-free market leaders.

The problem for consumers is the choice then becomes somewhat overwhelming.
