I've tested all the best new EVs of 2026 — here are my 5 favorites so far, from Honda to Hyundai
These five EVs, the best I've driven in 2026 so far, prove the electric car is getting seriously interesting.
In 2026, numerous electric vehicles have been released, but a few have stood out as particularly impressive. Hyundai's Ioniq 6 N takes the popular Ioniq 5 N and elevates it to new levels of performance and practicality, featuring simulated gears, synthesized engine noise, and absurd straight-line speed. Kia's EV2, though small, packs big-car technology and offers a spacious, comfortable driving experience.
Cupra's Raval VZ demonstrates that small EVs can be both fun and practical, with impressive performance and a comfortable cabin. Lastly, Porsche's Cayenne Turbo Electric showcases the incredible progress in EV performance, with up to 1,156 hp and a surprisingly composed handling despite its massive size.
