The 10 best electric cars from Bex Auto

Since the beginning of 2022, the automotive world has undergone significant changes. Gas prices are on the rise, and in some countries, fuel is sometimes impossible to find at all, regardless of the price. But what can you do if you need to travel long distances at an affordable price, yet don’t want to wait in kilometer-long lines at gas stations?

Bex Auto has the answers to your questions! We’ve been supplying cars to the Ukrainian market for six years and have created our own ranking of the most in-demand and high-quality electric cars.

10. Nissan Sylphy

This car features a sedan body based on the “American” Sentra. It’s powered by the Leaf’s electric motor paired with a 38 kW battery, which provides a range of about 330 km. It’s a good option, but it hasn’t gained widespread popularity.

9. DONGFENG EX1

For the past three years, this vehicle has been sold in Ukraine under the name Renault KZE. It is priced very affordably. On the European market, the car is known as the Dacia Spring, and in terms of sales, it competes with such “heavyweights” as the Renault Zoe and Nissan Leaf.

The battery has a capacity of 27 kW, but thanks to its light weight and efficient motor, the car can travel up to 320 km on a single full charge.

8. Hyundai Kona EV

An ideal Korean-made crossover for city driving. It features a 64 kW battery and a powerful 204 l. s. electric motor. All of this helps it accelerate to 100 km/h in just 7.2 seconds. Under mixed driving conditions and at average speeds, the car can travel about 440 km.

7. BYD HAN

This car is also known as the “Tesla of China.” The sedan is nearly 5 meters long. It accelerates to 100 in 3.9 seconds and can travel up to 550 km on a single charge. It is equipped with two motors that deliver a combined output of 494 l. s. It has a 77 kW battery. This is a stylish car that costs half as much as a “Tesla.”

6. BYD E5

The manufacturer is famous not only for being China’s leading producer of electric cars, but also for the fact that all its models are known for their extravagance and high price. However, this car was designed specifically with economy in mind. It features a 51 kW battery, and the motor delivers 134 l. s. It can travel more than 400 km on a single charge, yet outwardly it looks just like a classic sedan with a spacious trunk and a roomy passenger compartment. Thanks to its performance characteristics, this car is an excellent choice for taxi drivers.

5. Chevrolet Bolt

A sleek hatchback from the U.S. It’s equipped with a 62 kW battery. The car has a range of approximately 400 km, and its design appeals to many buyers. This car is the best choice for city driving.

4. Nissan Leaf

Even those who aren’t particularly interested in electric cars are familiar with this model. It’s widely available all over the world. While its specs fall slightly short compared to cars from China, that’s no reason to knock it off its well-deserved fourth-place spot.

3. Tesla Model S

This is one of Tesla’s first mass-market cars, which took the world of electric vehicles in a completely new direction. Owners enjoy a spacious interior, high-quality materials, a comfortable ride, a significant range on a single charge, and a responsive motor. Elon Musk realized that people would buy electric cars not so much for comfort as for style and self-expression. He was right about this, and his cars became bestsellers even at the pre-order stage.

2. Volkswagen ID4 Cross

This brand produces crossovers that become bestsellers, and the ID4 electric car is no exception. At Bex Auto, you can purchase the budget version of this model starting at $35,000. Customers will receive a crossover with an 84 kW battery and a range of up to 550 km. The car comes in an all-wheel-drive version and is equipped with matrix headlights, a head-up display, lane-keeping assist, automated parking, 360° cameras, and other attractive features.

1. Honda MN-V + Honda VE1

Why do two models share first place? The answer is simple. Their technical specifications are identical, and they share the same platform based on the Honda HR-V.

These vehicles earned their top spot thanks to their well-thought-out specifications. They can travel up to 480 km on a single charge, made possible by a 62 kW battery. The models are front-wheel drive and equipped with a 162-liter engine. The cars are dynamic and can accelerate to 100 km/h in 8 seconds. At the same time, they are versatile and adapt well to city driving conditions. The standard equipment package includes everything you need. At the same time, the price is very affordable—starting at $26,000.
