People love Tesla vehicles, so it's not surprising to see them at the top of iSeeCars' best electric car ranking. And at the top of this list is the Tesla Model S, which has unsurprisingly received rave reviews elsewhere.
Tesla Model S
iSeeCars
(ISC) gave the Tesla Model S an overall rating of 8.8 out of 10. It notes that Tesla's flagship Model S was the model that proved that electric vehicles didn't need to be short-range compliance cars.With up to 402 miles of range, the Tesla Model S was the brand's first high-volume model that had a significant impact on the global auto industry, selling in quantities expected for a premium sedan at its price range, and many are still on the used car market.
ISC calls the Model S a stylish performance vehicle with a few, but not many, luxurious features. Despite this, Tesla has dominated the electric vehicle industry since launching this vehicle.
Recent Model S iterations emphasize extreme performance and cutting-edge interior features like a yoke-style steering wheel and touchscreen controls. The Model S's central display serves as the primary point of control, just like in all other Tesla vehicles.
The Tesla Model S's MSRP ranges from $104,990 to $135,990.

Tesla Model 3
Next on ISC's list is the
Tesla Model 3
, which received a rating of 8.7 out of 10. ISC notes that the Model 3 is widely regarded as the best electric sedan in the world and the top-selling electric vehicle in the U.S. market. And for good reason: it offers a great driving experience with great technology features.With a range of up to 353 miles, ISC notes that the Model 3 has become the standard for electric vehicles on the market.
It's currently outselling other brands and it has a rabid fan base, who adore the vehicle because it gave them access to an electric vehicle at a relatively affordable price point.
Like other Teslas, the big central touchscreen controls just about every feature on the vehicle, but it's become a tired trope for some new customers who think it's gone a little too far.
Because it's the "budget" option of the Tesla lineup, the Model 3 doesn't feature many of the same luxury features that consumers expect in a vehicle costing around $50,000, like leather seating.
The Tesla Model 3's starting MSRP ranges from $46,990 to $62,990.
Nissan Leaf
Last on the list is the humble Nissan Leaf, which ISC rated 8.1 out of 10. The Leaf is the original mass-market electric vehicle, topping sales charts globally when it comes to affordable electric vehicles.
Recent model years offer a range of up to 226 miles. The Leaf boasts a long sale history in the U.S., having been on the market for well over a decade.
Originally serving as a practical utilitarian electric vehicle, recent model years offer a more advanced infotainment system and better safety features, making it a less-spartan vehicle for its price point.
The Nissan Leaf's MSRP falls between $27,400 and $37,400, making it the most affordable of these three options.
