Volvo is making an electric version of its funky-looking XC40 crossover. A 78-kW-hr battery pack sits between an electric motor on each axle, helping the crossover produce 408 hp and 487 lb-ft of torque, which will make it quite a bit more potent than the standard XC40. Expect it to offer a bit more than 200 miles of all-electric driving range.

Volkswagen ID 4: at least 200-mile range (estimate)

We're missing out on Volkswagen's ID 3 electric hatchback that's been revealed in Europe, but that's OK because we get something even better. The ID 4 small electric crossover will feature a larger battery pack and more electric range than the hatch—we're expecting at least 200 miles. If the production version is anything like the ID Crozz concept, the crossover will feature a compelling interior and exterior design. The concept also boasts an 83-kW-hr lithium-ion battery pack stored beneath the cabin floor for a balanced weight distribution, which VW says will give the CUV handling characteristics similar to those of the Golf GTI.

2020 Mercedes EQC: 200-220-mile range (estimate)

This crossover doesn't look like a Mercedes until you open the doors and see the luxurious interior with a wide touchscreen, sumptuous seats, and bold ambient lighting. Under the sheetmetal, the front and rear electric motors work together with the 80-kW-hr battery to make 402 hp and 564 lb-ft of torque. We expect the EQC to deliver more than 200 miles of range.

2020 Porsche Taycan: 201-250-mile range (estimate)

The Taycan has generated lots of buzz recently, and for a good reason. In a recent review, we noted the Taycan reminds us of the 911 in terms of its ability to make you feel "one" with the car. It's powerful, too. The Taycan Turbo S packs 751 hp and 774 lb-ft of torque in overboost mode and 617 hp in normal driving. This is possible with the help of a 93-kW-hr battery running at 800 volts. Although it's positioned as a Tesla Model S fighter, the Taycan can't compete on range—at least not in Turbo trim. The EPA rated the 2020 Porsche Taycan Turbo's range at 201 miles. The Turbo S is rated at 192 miles, but we tested it getting 254 miles of range. 4S models are expected to get better range than the Turbos. Expect to pay a pretty penny for upper-trim Taycans; the Turbo S starts at $186,350.

BMW is preparing its first EV crossover. The electric X3 will launch in 2020, though we don't know the exact timing for the U.S. market. EPA-estimated range is also unclear at this point, but we expect it to come in above 200 miles. The automaker is looking to add a dozen all-electric vehicles to its lineup by 2025.

2019 Audi E-Tron: 204-mile range

Unfortunately, the highly anticipated Audi E-Tron doesn't boast the impressive all-electric driving range of the Tesla Model X. Nevertheless, it's a superbly built SUV that benefits from a crisp brake feel, seamless energy recuperation, and a quiet and luxurious interior. It's relatively powerful, too. Together, the front and rear electric motors produce 355 hp and 413 lb-ft of torque; a boost mode raises total output to 402 hp and 489 lb-ft for brief spurts in this 5,489-pound SUV. Its large battery pack is rated at 95 kW-hr. Prices start at $75,795.

2019 Nissan Leaf Plus: 226-mile range

Nissan is now offering the popular Leaf with a bigger 62-kW-hr battery pack. This option increases all-electric driving range to a maximum of 226 miles. Dubbed the Nissan Leaf Plus, this new version accelerates quickly and shields occupants from road noise, though it suffers from some unnatural brake feel and dull steering. Priced from $37,475 before incentives, this electric car with long range is both competent and affordable.

2020 Jaguar I-Pace: 234-mile range

80/72/76 mpg-e

Not only is the I-Pace one of the longest-range electric cars on the market, but it's also one of the quickest. It makes 394 hp and 512 lb-ft of torque, enough to take it to 60 mph in 4.0 seconds. This setup pairs with a 90-kW-hr battery pack on all versions. We love this crossover's scintillating styling, precise steering, and excellent body control. And it performs well off-road, tackling sand pits and dirt hills with its competent all-wheel-drive system.

This electric car with long range has a similar setup to the upcoming Soul EV due for 2021. Like the box car, the Niro EV has a 64-kW-hr lithium-ion battery and electric motor that makes 201 hp and 291 lb-ft of torque. In a recent review, we praised the Niro EV's handling and readily available power. The model is priced from $39,545 before credits.

The Hyundai Kona Electric exhibits a silky-smooth drive quality that belies its sub-$40,000 price tag. The model's electric powertrain makes 201 hp and 290 lb-ft of torque, propelling it to 60 mph in 6.6 seconds with the help of a 64-kW-hr battery. OK, so it's not particularly zippy, but it's much quicker than gas-powered versions of the Kona.

With a 78-kW-hr battery and a targeted range of 275 miles, the sleek Polestar 2 has front and rear electric motors that deliver a combined output of 400 hp and 487 lb-ft of torque. That should be enough to scoot it to 60 mph in less than 5 seconds. Inside the cabin, you'll find unmistakable Volvo design cues, including the large Sensus screen in the middle of the dashboard. Launch models will start at around $63,000.

Although Tesla went through "production hell" with the Model 3, the effort was well worth it. It's agile and powerful, with the Long Range version hitting 60 mph in 4.0 seconds and the Performance version proving even quicker. The Model 3 sedan won our recent comparison test against the Genesis G70 and the BMW 330i. Impressed? A Long Range Model 3 costs $49,690 before incentives.

You probably recognize this long-range EV for its falcon wing doors. This sizable SUV puts many sports cars to shame when it comes to performance. We tested a 2016 Tesla Model X P90D Ludicrous hitting 60 mph in 3.2 seconds with the help of a 259-hp electric motor spinning the front wheels and a 503-hp electric motor for the rears. The Model X Long Range is currently priced from $86,190 before incentives.

2020 Tesla Model S Long Range: 373-mile range

The Tesla Model S is the longest range electric car on the market as of this writing. Its 373-mile rating holds up in the real world, as we found out when we made the journey from San Francisco to Los Angeles on one charge in the Model S. Yep, we went 360 miles without recharging. Although Tesla changes its prices frequently, the Long Range Model S currently starts at $81,190 before incentives.

2020 Rivian R1T: 400-plus-mile range

Coming in 2020

Watch out, Tesla. Rivian is gearing up to produce a sleek all-electric truck that can hit 60 mph in as little as 3.0 seconds. Depending on the battery option chosen, the R1T can travel 230 to 400-plus miles on a single charge, with prices starting in the high $60,000 range for the cheapest 105-kW-hr model. Each wheel has its own 197-hp electric motor, allowing precise torque vectoring at each wheel for increased traction. On the downside, Rivian has shown the R1T having a short bed that's just 4.6 feet long and 4.5 feet wide, and towing the max 11,000 pounds will cut the truck's all-electric driving range in half.

2020 Tesla Roadster: 620-mile range

Elon Musk has made plenty of wild promises in the past, but as we've found with the insanely quick Model S Performance, we know Tesla is capable of breaking performance barriers. So we're hoping that the reimagined Tesla Roadster is all it's cracked up to be. Tesla says the Roadster will boast a 0-60 time of 1.9 seconds, which actually sounds plausible given that we've tested a Model S hitting 60 mph in 2.28 seconds. Tesla is also boldly claiming the Roadster will have a 200-kW-hr battery, 7,376 lb-ft of torque, and an all-electric driving range of 620 miles. A claim that's more difficult to believe, considering Tesla's history of delays, is that the sleek two-door will arrive by 2020. Founders Series models, limited to the first 1,000 customers, are priced at a whopping $250,000. We'll have to wait and see if Tesla can stick to its timeline with the Roadster, but color us excited.
