Top 12 longest-range electric cars 2022 / 2023

Top 12 longest-range electric cars 2022 / 2023 by Carnex.

Electric vehicles are becoming more popular on Canadian roadways today. EV technology is rapidly advancing, resulting in EVs with significantly longer ranges than those available only a few years ago. While range anxiety is still a concern for potential electric car customers, this is due to “range anxiety,” or the fear that your EV won’t have enough battery charge to complete a trip, which is especially common if you travel long distances frequently. As more charging stations appear across Canada, it is now much easier than ever to drive an electric vehicle, even one with a limited range. 

With gas prices rising in some parts of Canada, it’s time to take a deeper look at the best electric vehicles available in Canada based on expected battery range. The ability to go long distances on a single charge is a critical factor when purchasing an EV. If you want to be certain that you can drive long distances without stopping, the EVs with a long range listed below are the ones to consider.

Here are the top 12 longest-range electric cars for 2022 / 2023.

The Mercedes EQS sedan is the brand’s first entirely electric vehicle. The cabin of the EQS is luxurious and capacious, with plenty of cargo capacity. The EQS is deserving of the moniker “electrifying luxury automobile,” along with desirable amenities such as comprehensive ambient interior lighting, headrest cushions for front and rear passengers, adjustable back seats with massaging functions, neck and shoulder heating, and an Executive Rear Seat Package. This spacious EV comes with a large 107.8 kWh battery that provides up to 770 kilometers of range. With a DC fast charger, the EQS can recharge 70% of its battery in just 35 minutes, whereas a 240-volt Level 2 charger takes roughly 11 hours.

Tesla Model S
