Whether you’re buying a Tesla Model Y , Hyundai Ioniq 5 , Kia EV6 or MG ZS EV , one of the first questions most people have regards the length of the driving range. So just how far can you travel between charges? Model 3 Rear-Wheel Drive and Performance versions don’t go as far, but they’re still impressive.

We’ll limit our top five to under $100,000 – no small sum, but these days families have had to make peace with combustion SUVs, dual-cab utes and people movers costing $60,000 and upwards.

It’s been on sale in Europe for a year, as has the Cargo commercial-van variant.

We will get to how it all works in a moment, but the short version is that, while you still get a petrol engine with your electric motors, the former is only used to recharge the battery or deliver power to the motors — it never actually drives the wheels — giving you what Nissan calls an “EV-like” drive experience, and improved fuel efficiency.

This range-topping Kia EV9 GT-Line’s RRP is $121,000, then adds quite ridiculous $18,000 (in Queensland) on-road charges, pushing the bill to $139,000 drive-away. A mid-spec EV9 Earth is around $120,000 in the traffic, while the entry-level Air is a comparatively cheap $107,000. As a single motor it takes 8.2-seconds

Instead, it’s a weird package that has pricing that is considered affordable relative to the average transaction price, but still not "cheap.” Compare the bZ to the brand’s own re-done Prius – the new Prius has flaws but it’s generally packaged much better.

Its short overhangs, “one-bow line” profile and stretched wheelbase take some getting used to, while a strange shut line from the A-pillar – part of a sealed bonnet – and external flap to re-fill the windscreen washer reservoir don’t help.
