Top 10 electric long-distance cars in the world in 2021
Electric cars had enough battery power to get you working, but they couldn't easily get to any places to charge the batteries, causing concern about how far they would go before they even thought of owning them.
However, this phenomenon has vanished over time as modern electric cars have longer ranges than ever before, and in this list we look at the ones with the longest ranges you can get.
Some of them can travel farther than petrol cars on a single tank of fuel, and fast charging is also starting to take hold, so recharging doesn't take long either.
Of course, it's often cheaper to recharge an electric vehicle than to fill your tank, especially if you're charging overnight, so these new long-range electric models look more appealing every day.
And with more and more charging points popping up across the country, it will be easier to operate an electric vehicle, even if the vehicle has a relatively short range.
List of the 10 longest mileage electric cars:
Polestar 2 - (335 miles)
The Polestar 2 combines bold, aggressive design with some familiar touches from sister brand Volvo, and while it is the brand's first major electric car, the Polestar 2 has a number of credentials that make it a true contender for even the most popular electric car.
Buyers can choose between a single or dual motor setup, with one long-range motor with a 78 kWh battery option providing a top range of 335 miles, while the standard 64 kWh motor offers up to 273, with both models accelerating from 0 -60 mph in 7.4 seconds.

Volkswagen ID.3 336 miles (540 km)

BMW i4 367 miles (590 km)

Ford Mustang Mach-E - 379 miles (610 km)
