What is the best older all electric car?

Newer electric vehicles are way out of my budget. So, I’ve decided to go with something a bit older. What are some of the best older all-electric cars right now?

Many people find the upfront costs of EVs to be far too expensive. Luckily, buying older or used EVs can save you a ton of money.
You’ll often find the best deals in the resale market when buying old or used
electric cars
. This is because electric vehicles tend to have lower than average resale value due mainly to demand.
According to the Kelley Blue Book, one of the most important things to look for when buying used is the range between charges. New EVs have ranged over 200 miles and that number seems to be growing. Older cars tend to travel fewer miles on a single charge which may affect their price.
Best older electric car price ranges
  • Nissan LEAF $8,000 to $12,000
  • Ford Focus $8,000 to $11,000
  • Volkswagen e-Golf $10,500 to $12,500
  • Kia Soul EV $11,000 to $15,000
  • BMW i3 $14,500 to $19,000
Selecting an older or used vehicle may come with some deficits, so it’s essential to have a well-rounded car insurance policy. Let
