New & used electric SUVs

There is an ever-widening range of used electric SUVs available, from smaller cars for the budget-conscious such as the Kia Soul and Hyundai Kona to luxury electric SUVs such as the Jaguar I-Pace, Mercedes EQC and Tesla Model X. In-between, you’ll find good-value family-size electric SUVs such as the Kia Niro and MG ZS.

The process of charging your electric SUV is pretty much as simple as plugging in your kettle. It can be done from a simple domestic socket, via a specially installed wallbox on your house or garage, or via a public charging point.

The Tesla Model X Long Range is the used SUV with the longest official battery range. Next best are the Jaguar I-Pace and the Polestar 2, while the slightly lower-cost Kia Niro and Hyundai Kona offer a longer battery range than most rivals.

An electric SUV is likely to cost more than a petrol, diesel or hybrid equivalent but it should give you much lower running costs. The impressive performance and quiet driving experience of electric SUVs add to their appeal.
