One’s a three-row midsize SUV under $60,000; the other’s a compact hatchback that starts in the mid-30s. We’re not holding our breath for that mythical $30,000 Chevrolet Equinox EV, but we figured retail versions of Chevy’s Silverado EV pickup truck and Blazer EV SUV would have reached the market by now.

Audi’s simply named e-tron SUV was the luxury brand’s first EV toe in the water, but what to do when your expanding electric vehicle line-up all feature that e-tron badge?
