Ever wonder which of the electric vehicles (EVs) would best suit your needs? Even if it is just a curiosity, it can be fun topic to explore.
There are a few things to think about when considering what car would be best to meet your needs. How far do you drive every day? Do you want all electric or a hybrid, which will give you all electric for a certain number of miles, then will switch over to a combustion engine? Do you make lots of stops during your day? Might those spots be near an EV charger? Or do you need a car that can drive over 100 miles in without stopping to charge? Do you need space for 7 people and luggage on a regular basis? Or can you drive a car that is smaller?
