When will electric cars achieve 400 miles per charge?

My current car can get about 400 miles on a full tank before I need to stop at a gas station. I want to switch to an electric car, but none of the ones I’ve looked at have even come close to that kind of range. When will electric cars be able to get 400 miles on a single charge?

Range anxiety is a big issue in the world of electric cars, and many other potential
EV-buyers
feel the same way you do.
In 2020, the average EPA-estimated range for all EV models offered in that model year topped 250 miles. That’s pretty good, but it’s still a long way from 400.
While the average for electric cars may not be there just yet, there are actually a few models that have topped the 400-mile marker on a full charge, including:
  • 2022 Lucid Air Dream Edition R all-wheel drive: 520 miles
  • 2022 Tesla Model S Dual-Motor AWD: 405 miles
The 2022 Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual-Motor AWD was also just shy of the 400-mile marker with a range of 358 miles.
As electric car technology improves, more and more cars are sure to reach the 400-mile marker in range. If you are thinking of getting an electric car, you’ll want a
car insurance
plan that delivers great coverage at a great price.
