Kona Electric with a range of 258 miles per charge.

Zoe electric range 250 miles
Tesla electric range 349 miles

Rivian electric pick up 400 miles. It will climb a grade that would stall any ice vehicle
And this is the tip of the ice berg with sales at only 2.9% of new vehicles. When it hits 5% (and it has been doubling each year) watch out.

Over hyped, and doing their best to convince you to change your lifestyle to fit their model. EVs are at this time not practical for the vast majority of American people. They may be OK for riding around in the city, or going to the grocery store. But for real traveling, they are pretty much useless.
In the morning I will be traveling from the foothills of NC to the Outer Banks of NC. I will be taking the truck as the car cannot carry the gear DW says we need. Now I don't know of a EV that on one charge, will carry all that gear, and run for 8 hours with the AC, and lights on, and has 4x4 to go out on the sand.
Convince me I am wrong.
And yet. None of those vehicles will do what I am going to do in the morning. so they are useless to me. If I want a intown Electric vehicle. I'll just get a Golf Cart.
As for the Rivin. I looked it up. If I want to go ALMOST to my destination. Might work. But I prefer to go all the way there, and then drive around some, like to Dinner, or the store. Don't have time to sit while it is recharged.
