It’s cool that you’re looking to make the jump into the EV (electric vehicle) world. Lucky for you, electric cars don’t have to break the bank. The Nissan Leaf is the cheapest fully electric car. And even if you end up paying a bit more upfront, don’t forget that there are many money-saving perks like no more expensive trips to the gas pump as well as
tax credits
Here are the cheapest electric cars currently on the market:
  • Nissan Leaf retails at $28,375 and gets an impressive 237 miles per full charge.
  • Mini Cooper SE starts at $30,750 and gets 150 miles per full charge.
  • Chevrolet Bolt EV comes in at $31,995 and gets up to 278 miles per full charge.
Each year the technology gets better (further charge ranges) and the prices are going down so you can go electric without taking on another job to pay it off!
