The figure most commonly attached to any electric vehicle is range. But that single figure can be misleading. The EPA range number isn’t able to fully communicate how useful an electric vehicle might be to a commuter, or to a family’s needs. Our testing of EVs over many years has provided more nuanced methods. The EPA’s figure... 2021 Nissan Leaf Plus range test: Your mileage may vary, but mild weather is a big plus

The 38-mpg Tucson Hybrid is the first hybrid SUV in Hyundai’s lineup, and from what I’ve seen it’s the best way you can get the new Tucson—for now. The redesigned 2022 Tucson gets a fresh look, upgraded tech, and a growth spurt that gives it one of the best back seats in this crowded class. A relatively short drive on- and... 
It’s been a long and winding road for Karma Automotive, which was born of the remains of Fisker more than five years ago and still hasn't managed to make as many cars as the original. But with the debut of the 2021 Karma GS-6, following in the footsteps of the Revero GT it introduced last year, Karma sets the stage for that to change... 
If it feels like we’ve been here before, it’s because we have. This marks the third year out of the last four that Genesis has shown a battery-electric concept. First there was the Essentia, which debuted at the New York Auto Show in 2018. Then the Mint was revealed at the same show in 2019. And for 2021, we get the Genesis X concept... 
It occurs to me as I’m cruising down the highway, hands folded in my lap and eyes trained on the road ahead, that what I’m sitting in may have unwittingly committed a bit of fratricide. The all-new 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV makes an intriguing case for itself against not only competition from other automakers, but the smaller Bolt EV as... 
What’s the most efficient way to drive the 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime and use its charge mode, when you’re traveling a long distance and going near posted speed limits?

The 2022 Mini Cooper SE gets a slight mid-cycle refresh that updates the car’s styling and adds new standard features, but leaves the rest of its fundamentally playful nature and scant range intact. The carryover powertrain features a 181-hp electric motor powering the front-wheels, and the through a single-speed transmission. The Cooper SE... 
The 2021 Volkswagen ID.4 electric SUV is such a tease. This was my second encounter with the ID.4 in prototype form, the first time was a walkaround of another prototype that felt rather complete minus its virtually non-functional multimedia system. But this time, I got to drive an ID.4 that again felt rather complete…minus some functions...
