The words "fun" and "EV" are no longer mutually exclusive. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N is just as impressive on a twisty back road as it is blistering quick to 60 mph. On top of all its mind-bending performance, the 5 N retains all the creature comforts of the standard Ioniq 5. If you want a modern, electric interpretation of a hot hatchback, the Ioniq 5 N is essentially unmatched.

The all-electric iX is something to behold, and the M60 performance version turns up the excitement by a few notches. This midsize performance EV SUV is incredibly fast and somehow remains comfortable and versatile. Some controls can be frustrating to use, but overall it's a brilliant EV SUV.

The Ford Mustang Mach-E GT offers a genuine step up in performance from the standard model while remaining comfortable and well appointed. As a bonus, the Mach-E GT delivers better efficiency and more range than other performance-oriented EVs.

Give it the beans and the EV6 GT can easily out-accelerate most other cars on the road. It's a bargain on top of that, offering one of the best horsepower-per-dollar ratios of any vehicle. Lackluster range is a significant drawback, but the GT should otherwise be an appealing pick for an EV that provides both performance and practicality.
