Small in size, doesn’t always mean small in range…
EVs have come a long, long way in a very short space of time. Back in the day, so-called ‘range anxiety’ had people worried about running out of power without access to a charging station. That’s simply no longer a problem now.
Considering the UK has just over 8,000 petrol stations. You are more likely to find a charging point than a petrol pump. Don’t worry about range. Every car on this list can comfortably top 50 miles without charging. The average person in the UK drives just 27 miles each day.

Electric cars are getting better, and more affordable, with every passing year. Concerns about performance, particularly range, are a thing of the past. The lowest range on this list of small EVs is still many times what the average UK driver covers in a day.
Then, when you realise how much cheaper electric vehicles are to run, the choice is clear. There’s never been a better time to go electric and take advantage of all that support.
