Just a decade ago, only one EV – the Tesla Model S – could even break the 200-mile barrier. Now, some of the latest electric cars can allegedly do more than 500 miles before stopping to charge – further than many people will even want to drive in one day.

What’s more, the EV segment is no longer just limited to a select few brands; almost every manufacturer out there sells one, and most do so across multiple body styles, from city cars to executive saloons and large SUVs. And with the efficiency and technology of EVs only getting better, we’ve now seen the first 500-mile production cars enter the fray – and future EVs will be able to go even further.

For example, the upcoming BMW i3 saloon will officially be able to do up to 562 miles – theoretically enough to get you from Land’s End in Cornwall to Edinburgh without stopping. And the new Mercedes C-Class, which is due to go on sale this summer, will initially be offered in C400 4Matic form with a maximum range of 472 miles. When a rear-wheel-drive version follows, the range will grow to around 500 miles.
