Six of the Best Electric SUVs: Our Pick of the Standout All-Electric All-Rounders

Choosing an electric SUV has never been more complicated, or more exciting. The market now stretches from compact city-friendly crossovers to full-size seven-seat flagships, with prices and personalities to match. So, when the brief simply says, “Six best electric SUVs…” the trick is to pick a set that genuinely represents the sheer breadth of choice out there, as well as representing the best value when it comes to lease deals.

Small to large, affordable to premium, here are six electric SUVs that showcase the best of today’s EV market, each offering something different for UK drivers.

Volvo EX30 – the compact premium one

The EX30 is Volvo’s smallest SUV, but it arrives with all the calming, minimalist charm the Swedish brand is known for.

It’s compact enough to feel effortless in town yet still grown-up enough for longer journeys thanks to a refined ride and a beautifully designed interior. The cabin feels more premium than its price suggests, and the performance, especially in the Twin Motor version, is properly brisk.

For drivers who want a stylish, easy-to-park EV with a premium edge, the EX30 is a brilliant place to start, and a beautiful place to sit.

Hyundai Kona – the family-friendly all-rounder

Few electric SUVs have had such a lasting impact as the Hyundai Kona.

Now in its second gen format, the Kona’s styling still turns heads, but it’s the everyday usability that makes it such a standout. The cabin is huge, the seats are comfortable, and the flat floor gives it a lounge-like feel, with plenty of rear legroom. You’ll also appreciate the smooth ride and quiet cabin which makes it a relaxing family car.

What’s also good to know is that we have some very good Hyundai Kona car leasing deals for you!

Volkswagen ID.4 – the refined mainstream choice

The VW ID.4 brings a grown-up feel to the mid-size EV class.

It’s spacious, comfortable, and reassuringly familiar for anyone coming from a traditional family SUV. The ride is smooth, the cabin is airy, and the driving experience is relaxed rather than sporty, exactly what many drivers are looking for from their lease car.

With strong real-world range and a practical boot, the ID.4 is a dependable, sensible choice for families who want an EV that just gets on with the job.

Skoda Enyaq – the practical one with huge space

If practicality is the priority, the Skoda Enyaq is hard to beat.

It offers one of the biggest boots in the class, loads of rear-seat space, and a cabin that feels thoughtfully designed for everyday life. It’s efficient, comfortable, and easy to drive, with a reassuringly solid feel on the road.

The Enyaq is the kind of car that quietly excels at everything families need, from school runs to long weekends away, without ever feeling fussy or complicated. If you want to lease a Skoda Enyaq then start here.

BMW iX3 – the polished premium SUV

The BMW iX3 is the understated premium option in this line-up.

It doesn’t shout about its electric credentials, but it delivers a beautifully balanced driving experience with the kind of refinement BMW does so well. The rear-wheel drive setup gives it a smooth, confident feel, and the cabin quality is excellent.

It’s efficient too, making it a great choice for drivers who want a premium electric SUV that feels familiar, well-built, and quietly sophisticated.
