26 Electric Cars in the U.S. that can do 300 miles of range

In December 2010, when the first-generation Nissan Leaf EV arrived in the U.S., it had a 24 kWh lithium-ion battery pack that delivered an EPA-est. range of just 73 miles. Although the Leaf was a pioneer, the range between charges was impractical and drove away many prospective electric vehicle buyers.

Thankfully, times have changed. We now live in a world where EVs can achieve well over 300 miles of range on a full charge. Here are 26 electric cars with at least 300 miles of maximum range that are already available at U.S. dealerships or will start arriving by the end of 2023. In the list, there are cars with EPA or manufacturer-claimed ranges of 300 miles.

BMW i4

The 2023 BMW i4 is the company’s entry-level EV in the U.S. In the mid-range eDrive40 variant, it comes with an 81.5 kWh (net) battery pack and delivers an EPA-est. range of 301 miles. Do note that specifying the optional 19-inch wheels instead of the standard 18-inch wheels lowers that figure to 282 miles.

The 2023 BMW i4 eDrive40 comes with features like LED headlights with programmable LED DRLs, a 12.3-inch instrument cluster, a 14.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, two-way power glass moonroof, a multi-zone climate control system, power sport seats (front), and more.

The eDrive40 variant of the 2023 BMW i4 has a rear-mounted motor that generates 335 horsepower and 317 lb.-ft. of torque. A 0-60 mph sprint takes 5.5 seconds, while the top speed is 118 mph. The maximum AC charging power is 11 kW, and a full charging session (0-100% SoC) at that rate takes 8 hours and 25 minutes. The peak DC charging input is 200 kW, which allows topping up to 80% charging level (from 10%) in 31 minutes.

Rivian R1T

Rivian R1T front three quarter left side
The Rivian R1T is the one of the most capable electric pickup trucks on sale today, especially for off-roading. Image Source: Rivian

Based on an in-house platform, the Rivian R1T pickup is offered to American buyers in the ‘Adventure’ trim with a starting MSRP of USD 73,000. There are four configurations on offer: Dual-Motor AWD + Standard Pack (USD 73,000), Dual-Motor AWD + Large Pack (USD 79,000), Dual-Motor AWD + Max Pack (USD 89,000), and Quad-Motor AWD + Large Pack (USD 87,000). More configurations are coming soon, which we’ve detailed in the main Rivian R1T article.

The most basic configuration’s Rivian-est. range is just 260+ miles. The Dual-Motor AWD + Large Pack configuration’s range, EPA-est. or Rivian-est., isn’t available yet. As for the Dual-Motor AWD + Max Pack configuration’s range, Rivian expects it to be 400 miles.

The Quad-Motor AWD + Large Pack configuration, which is the only one currently on sale and uses a 135 kWh battery pack, has an EPA-est. rating of 328 miles. It’s safe to assume the Dual-Motor AWD + Large Pack and Dual-Motor AWD + Max Pack’s EPA-est. range figures will be higher than that.

The Dual-Motor AWD powertrain provides 600+ hp and 600+ lb.-ft of torque. This version of the R1T pickup can go from 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds. The Quad-Motor AWD drive system has a combined output of 835 hp and 908 lb.-ft. It reduces the 0-60 mph acceleration time to 3.0 seconds.

Rivian is building a charging network like Tesla – Rivian Adventure Network. The company plans to install 3,500+ DC fast chargers with an output of 200 kW initially and 300+ kW in the future at approximately 600 sites in the U.S. and Canada as part of this network. Charging the R1T at one of these chargers for 20 minutes can give it a range of up to 140 miles.

Another Rivian charging network under deployment in the U.S. and Canada is Rivian Waypoints. This network consists of Level 2 (AC) chargers. There will be over 10,000 of those charger when the company completes building it. The 11.5 kW Level 2 (AC) Rivian Wall Charger can add up to 25 miles of range per hour.

Rivian R1S

Like its pickup truck sibling, the Rivian R1S is based on Rivian’s bespoke all-electric architecture and offered in the ‘Adventure’ trim. Currently, customers can choose from three configurations: Dual-Motor AWD + Standard Pack (USD 78,000), Dual-Motor AWD + Large Pack (USD 84,000), and Quad-Motor AWD + Large Pack (USD 92,000). More configurations are coming soon, and we’ve detailed them in the main Rivian R1S story.

Rivian expects the most basic range to deliver a range of just 260 miles. The mid-level configuration’s range, EPA-est. or Rivian-est., isn’t out yet. The top-end configuration, which has a 135 kWh battery pack and is the only one Rivian is selling at the moment, delivers an EPA-est. range of 321 miles. So, the mid-level configuration’s EPA-est. range will likely be higher than that. The charging times are the same as those of the R1T.

The Rivian R1S’ Quad-Motor AWD powertrain generates 835 hp and 908 lb.-ft. of torque. As per Rivian’s website, it allows the electric SUV to go from 0-60 mph in 3 seconds. The Dual-Motor AWD powertrain produces 600+ hp and 600+ lb.-ft. of torque and allows a 0-60 mph acceleration time of 4.5 seconds.

Tesla Cybertruck

The Tesla Cybertruck will be manufactured at the brand’s Giga Texas plant in Austin (Texas), U.S., with production scheduled to commence in mid-2023. Deliveries should begin the same day as production.

The steel-reinforced truck was originally priced between USD 39,900 and USD 69,900. However, production costs of vehicles, especially high-tech electric models, have significantly grown since 2019, so Tesla could launch it at much higher prices. The company has taken down the original prices from its website anticipating that change. It is still offering prospective buyers a fully-refundable pre-order offer for USD 100, though.

Tesla stated back in 2019 that the Cybertruck can cover over 300 miles of range with a dual-motor setup, with over 500 miles possible with a single-motor setup. While the company hasn’t released any performance figures for the Cybertruck, it’s likely to be quicker to 60 mph than its closest competitors.

The Tesla Model 3 Performance is priced at USD 53,990 in the U.S. market. With an EPA-rated range of 315 miles, the dual-motor all-wheel-drive system of this compact all-electric sedan enables it to go from 0-60 mph in just 3.1 seconds* and attain a top speed of 162 mph. Connected to a Tesla Supercharger, the Model 3’s battery can be charged up to 175 miles in 15 minutes.

The Tesla Model S is available in 670 hp Dual Motor AWD and 1,020 hp Plaid Tri Motor AWD variants. It costs USD 94,990 in the range-focused variant and USD 114,990 in the performance-focused variant.

The Tesla Model S Dual Motor AWD has a 0-60 mph acceleration time of 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 149 mph, and yet, it delivers an EPA-est. range of up to 405 miles.

The Tesla Model S Plaid Tri Motor AWD gets crazier on the performance front, hitting 0-60 mph in just 1.99 seconds* and achieving a top speed of 200 mph. Still, it doesn’t compromise on the EPA-est. range much, as it can travel up to 396 miles on a full charge.

The Tesla Model X, the brand’s first SUV, is available in Dual Motor AWD and Plaid Tri-Motor AWD variants. The sedan equivalent of the Model S costs USD 109,990 and USD 119,990, respectively, in these variants.

With an EPA-rated range of 348 miles and 333 miles, both variants of the Tesla Model X are pretty practical. Speaking of practicality, the Dual Motor AWD variant is optionally available as a six-seater and even as a seven-seater, while the Plaid Tri-Motor AWD variant packs six seats as standard.

The base variant of the Model X has a top speed of 149 mph and a 0-60 mph time of 3.8 seconds. The top-end variant can hit 60 mph in 2.5 seconds, but it can’t go any faster.

The Model Y is the Model 3 on stilts. It’s available in Long Range Dual Motor AWD and Performance Dual Motor AWD variants, for USD 52,990 and USD 56,990, respectively. Both variants have an EPA-est. range of over 300 miles. The base variant can deliver 330 miles on a full charge, while the top-end variant runs out of juice at 303 miles.

Customers wanting more punch can select the Model Y Performance, which can hit a top speed of 155 mph. The 2023 Model Y Performance has a maximum range of 303 miles, while the Long Range Model Y has a maximum range of 330 miles on a full charge. The Performance variant of the 2023 Model Y has a top speed of 155 mph and a 0-60 mph time of 3.5 seconds, says Tesla.
