The latest updates on electric vehicles (EVs) with ranges over 500 miles primarily highlight the 2025 Lucid Air as the standout model, offering an impressive maximum range of 512 miles on a single charge. This makes it the leader in driving range for electric cars currently available or soon to be released.
Other notable points include:
- The 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQS saloon is the longest-range model available in the UK market, capable of traveling up to 481 miles, which is close but still under the 500-mile mark.
- The Chevrolet Silverado EV RST Max Range pickup claims a substantial range of 460 miles, which is one of the longest for pickup trucks but still below 500 miles.
- Electric SUVs typically have shorter ranges due to their size and aerodynamics; the longest-range SUV, the Rivian R1S Dual Max Battery, offers up to 410 miles, with the Cadillac Escalade IQ claiming 460 miles unofficially but not EPA tested.
- Tesla’s popular Model S in 2025 offers a range of about 402 miles, well below the 500-mile threshold but still among the top EVs for range.
Looking forward, while the current production EVs rarely exceed 500 miles except for the Lucid Air, concept and next-generation vehicles such as the Mercedes Vision EQXX have demonstrated the potential to surpass 600 miles in testing conditions, indicating that production models with ranges routinely over 500 miles could become more common in the future.
In summary, as of 2025, the 2025 Lucid Air is the only widely available electric vehicle with a confirmed range exceeding 500 miles, setting the benchmark for long-range EVs today. Other EVs are approaching but remain under this milestone, with future advancements promising even greater ranges.
