How Much These EVs and Hybrids Cost Today
If you consider yourself to be “ahead of the curve” in all things automotive, then you may be of the opinion that electric vehicles are the cars of the future. Of course, just like regular old gas-powered machines, they’re not always cheap, but we’ve found some great deals and collected them here.
2023 Moke Cruise Car - $16,500
Unlike the Cybertruck, which has the full might of the Tesla name behind it, Moke doesn’t have nearly the same pedigree, but that hasn’t stopped this all-American cruise car from making waves. If you’re struggling to make it out from this picture, that’s probably due to its camouflage paint job.
2019 Tesla Model 3 Performance - $15,999
As probably the biggest name in electric automotive engineering, don’t be surprised to see the word “Tesla” thrown around plenty over the course of this list. This Performance variant of the popular Model 3 promises, well, peak performance, and only has around 113,000 miles on the clock.
2017 Chevrolet Volt Premier - $10,900
Though not everyone has come around to the idea of an all-electric future, electric cars have become popular enough that even the biggest names in the business have tried their hand at producing them. The Volt is actually a hybrid, combining the performance of traditionally powered vehicles with the eco-friendliness of electric models.
2018 Smart ForTwo Electric Prime - $11,200
The Smart name may not be one that you instantly recognize, but we guarantee you’ve heard of the group they belong to - Mercedes-Benz. That said, a Mercedes-Benz this is not. Instead, this tiny two-seater is a quirky addition to the electric vehicle canon, one that you can have for $11,200.
2015 BMW I3 Premium - $9,800
If all these new electric car brands aren’t doing it for you, you could always settle for a BMW i3. This 2015 model is on the older side, sure, but with only a few miles on the clock and smart features that haven’t gone out of date, it may as well be brand new, and you can own it for the low price of $9,800.
2023 Tesla Model 3 - $22,165
We told you there’d be more than a few Teslas on this list. This Model 3 doesn’t have the performance capabilities of the previous one featured on this list, but it still represents the very forefront of electric vehicle engineering, with just over 50,000 miles on the clock.
2024 Tesla Cybertruck - $39,999
Controversial, unique, unconventional; these are all ways one might describe the 2024 Tesla Cybertruck, probably the most sought-after modern electric vehicle that you’ll come across on this list. With only some 19,000 miles on the clock, this used model has barely been driven, and it shows in just how fresh it still looks.
2021 Porsche Taycan Turbo S - $50,100
If there’s one thing Porsche has always been known for, it’s their immaculate sense of style that can elevate even the most average of vehicles. Fortunately, this electric model is anything but average, and features a clean, sleek design that will have you thinking it’s actually a sports car.
2024 Tesla Model S Model 3 Standard - $56,000
Despite its admittedly confusing name, the Model S Model 3 Standard (which we’ll just call the Model S from here on out) represents the peak of electric luxury and offers “ludicrous performance” in Tesla’s own words. This one’s mileage is under 16,000, essentially making it almost brand new.
2014 BMW I3 BEV - $5,500
For electric cars to be the future, they need to cater to all comers, so this BMW i3 BEV is perfect for more family-oriented drivers who need a bit more space.
2017 Chevrolet Volt LT - $9,999
Though electric vehicles have been around for some time now, they haven’t existed long enough for any electric models to be truly considered “classic”. That said, with a lineage that includes the Camaro, Corvette, Bel Air, and many, many others, if there’s one company capable of delivering an all-time classic electric vehicle, it’s Chevrolet with the Volt.
2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE AMG® EQE - $55,847
The Mercedes-Benz brand name is associated with luxury, refinement, and tip-top engineering. So, how many of those qualities can the company match when it comes to their electric vehicles? Pretty much all of them, it turns out, as demonstrated by this EQE.
2010 Honda Insight LX - $4,995
Honda - along with many other foreign-based companies - were early adopters of the electric model. The first-gen Insight was released way back in 2009 and was the cheapest electric vehicle on the market. That doesn’t mean it’s at all lacking in quality, however, and while it’s definitely older now, this 2010 Insight LX is still a steal.
2015 Tesla Model S - $19,800
At this point, we should encourage our readers to get a tally going of every time the word “Tesla” gets brought up on this list. This Model S is older than the previous one, sure, but it’s been immaculately maintained and would make for a great Uber vehicle.
2012 Nissan Leaf EV - $2,550
The Leaf was one of the earliest electric models to not come from Tesla, and it’s remarkable as to how well this model has held up, despite being almost thirteen years old.
2013 Toyota Prius - $10,000
Though the nameplate has become something of a punchline, there’s a reason as to why the Prius is so ubiquitous. It’s reliable and fairly inexpensive, and this 2013 electric hybrid is no different, only setting you back a very reasonable $10,000.
2023 Audi RS E-Tron GT - $89,950
As electric vehicles become more and more trendy and popular, you’ll start to see more names like Audi come up during the discussion. This RS e-tron GT has just over 4,000 miles on the clock, which may as well be a trip from the factory to the shop floor, offering you incredible value for your investment.
2022 Moke Cruise Car - $33,999
If anyone’s keeping track, this is the second Moke Cruise Car on our list. It’s an oddity to be sure, and we couldn’t see it being driven in densely packed urban environments. But if you live in a beach town and want to get your hands on a limited edition electric, this one’s for you.
2018 Tesla Model 3 - $18,000
With this next addition to our list, that makes six whole Tesla models that we’ve mentioned so far. This red Model 3 is stylish and reliable, with only a few minor imperfections here and there that are easy to fix and just over 70,000 miles on the clock.
2021 Porsche Taycan Turbo S - $104,950
Remember what we said about the previous Taycan on this list? All of that pretty much applies here, but in white - or rather, chalk if you’re feeling frivolous. At $104,950, it’s on the pricier side, but is a worthwhile investment for those with the money to spare.
2024 Cadillac LYRIQ 600E4 AWD Luxury - $32,980
Cadillac is one of the most respected names in the automotive industry, associated with refined style and luxury. The Lyriq is a more modern-looking vehicle than many of the others in their line-up, but it demonstrates their willingness to “get with the times”.
2023 Mercedes-Benz EQS 580 EDITION ONE - $71,700
This particular Mercedes-Benz electric model is a limited edition, with real rose gold keys and a premium appearance to match. As such, its price tag of $71,700 is certainly intimidating, but hardly unreasonable.
2020 Lexus ES300h - $36,895
The Lexus nameplate is pretty… hit-or-miss, for lack of a better term. Some models have been great successes, while many others have launched with problems galore. This particular model, however, is pretty competitively priced and has clearly been well maintained.
2015 Tesla 762HP THIRD ROW P85D - $19,995
This feels like the hundredth Tesla to make our list - and our list is only 35 items long! Needless to say, as much as Tesla’s owner may infuriate some, the company is almost unmatched in electric vehicle engineering.
2023 Porsche Taycan Turbo - $119,998
What’s one more Porsche Taycan going to hurt? This Turbo-charged model offers supreme performance and luxury, all within an eco-friendly hybrid electric package.
2023 Moke Cruise Car - $25,977
The Moke Cruise Car has appeared on our list twice before, but make no mistake, this is actually a limited edition vehicle that is perfect for beach towns and open roads alike.
2013 Tesla Model S 85 - $19,995
If you’re looking for an older entry in the Tesla canon, you can’t go wrong with this 2013 Model S 85, which has not only been remarkably well maintained and cared for, but also only has under 40,000 miles on the clock.
2024 BMW I7 EDrive50 - $76,158
If, on the other hand, you’d like to get your hands on something more current, this 2024 BMW is the fully electric vehicle for you, with a clean Alpine white exterior and only 10,061 miles on the clock.
2024 Rolls-Royce Spectre - $369,998
Rolls-Royce were the original connoisseurs of class, so you can expect this fully electric model to offer you nothing but the best in terms of luxury… and performance.
2024 Mercedes-Benz EQE AMG EQE - $65,991
Whatever EQE AMG EQE stands for is anybody’s guess, but what we do know for certain is that this 2024 Mercedes-Benz electric model offers you nothing short of consummate class and performance.
2022 Lexus NX NX 450h+ F SPORT - $17,999
Don’t be fooled by its bulky appearance and size - this Lexus offers performance and power that is frankly surprising for an electric vehicle of its, uh, girth.
2014 BMW I8 - $41,500
Though it’s over ten years old at this point, this 2014 BMW i8 still looks brand new and decidedly futuristic, and has clearly been lovingly maintained.
2014 BMW I3 REX - $3,449
Following up with another BMW from 2014, this particular model definitely lives up to its name in terms of size and its intimidating presence.
2014 Honda Insight - $9,000
The Insight has proven to be a remarkably resilient nameplate in Honda’s lineup, and this particular 2014 model has held up just as well.
2017 Fiat 500 - $10,920
For city folks who don’t have the space for a good old American pick-up, the Fiat 500 electric model from 2017 is the one for you, with zippy handling and great fuel economy.
