best electric cars 2022

Looking for the best electric cars of 2022 in Australia? The shortlist wrote itself: Tesla Model 3 for charging network and polish, Hyundai Ioniq 5 for lounge‑room comfort and retro cool, Kia EV6 for sporty poise, Polestar 2 for tidy dynamics, and MG ZS EV if your budget prefers toast to truffle.

Porsche Taycan deserves a nod if your accountant enjoys panic, while the ageing Nissan Leaf still makes sense for short urban hops. Consider where you’ll charge: Tesla’s Supercharger coverage was the easiest in 2022, with others leaning on Chargefox and Evie. Either way, running costs are low and torque is instant enough to surprise seagulls. Test‑drive, check software update history, and pick the one that fits your range and life, not just your Instagram.
