Good morning, friends. We’ve recently been pondering amongst ourselves (in between title transfers and registration renewals) this question: if we were in the market for a new ride, but not just any new ride, but something electric, what would we choose? How would we go about picking which Electric Vehicle (EV) to best suit our needs?

Well, as they say, “needs must,” so we decided to break it down for you a little here. You know… in case you’ve been lying awake at night hemming and hawing over the same dilemma. So we’ve compiled the best EV’s on the market now to make things a bit easier for our readers. Or at the very least, get you a head start on the shopping journey. Ready? Here goes.
The Top 5 EV’s Available in 2025.
- The Tesla Model 3.
Price range of $44,130 to $56,630. In at number one, though far from being the most affordable, is the obvious (to many folks, anyway) choice. This fancypants ride zooms from 0-60 MPH in a mere 2.8 seconds, and depending on the specific model you choose, offers a driving range of 296 to 363 miles on a single charge. Of course, this is a Tesla, so the bells and whistles on the interior are pretty high-end standard – where just about everything is available at a touch. One random little detail we love about this is that if you were to fold down the back seats, the trunk space could then fit 15 carry-on suitcases. Fifteen!
- The Nissan Leaf.
Price range of $29,280 to $37,330. Probably the most cost-efficient EV on the road and available for purchase today, the Nissan Leaf comes in as the solid, practical choice. With 212 miles of range per charge and an acceleration of 0-60 MPH in 7.4 (or 6.8, on the upgrade) seconds, the Leaf won’t win any races, but it may just come in first in the dependability department. Infotainment is touchscreen, Bluetooth-ready, and comes with an optional sound system upgrade to Bose speakers.
- The Ford Mustang Mach-E.
Price range of $38,490 to $57,990. Yep, you read that right – that’s a Mustang in the lineup of EV’s! If speed is your thing, but the sticker price on the Tesla makes you want to weep, then the Mustang might be your balm: this model boasts a pickup up 0-60 MPH anywhere from 3.3 to 3.7 seconds, and will endure anywhere from 250 to 320 miles on a charge. And as far as intelligence goes, this EV can recall three driver profiles (plus a guest), and offers a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot, in addition to all the standard infotainment features.
- The Hyundai Kona Electric.
Price range of $34,425 50 $42,600. While the Kona is no Tesla when it comes to acceleration, it’s not too shabby considering its size: 0-60 in 7 seconds. It also does not claim to have the longest range; its top mileage is 200-260 depending on the battery you choose. But still, this EV offers a quality ride, lots of cargo space, two 12.3-inch infotainment displays, standard Bluetooth connectivity, and Wi-Fi hotspot.
- The Chevrolet Equinox EV.
Price of $34,995 to $44,795. For a larger EV, the range on the Equinox stands out, offering 260-319 miles per charge. And depending on which model you go for, you’re looking at 0-60 MPH anywhere from 7.7 down to 5.8 seconds. With an enormous touchscreen display of 17.7 inches, this model makes up for its lack of Apple CarPlay or Android Auto by offering built-ins like Google Maps, Spotify, and mobile Wi-Fi hotspot-ing.
And there you have them: the top 5 EV’s available on the market for 2025. And no matter which model you end up selecting, remember that for all your title and tag needs, you’ve landed in the right place. Transfers, renewals, replacements…you name it, we can lend a hand.
