EPA vs BEVDB range estimates

Why these cars rank

Electric SUVs are filtered to SUV and crossover body styles before scoring. The SUV score weights range 25%, price/value 20%, charging 20%, efficiency 15%, practicality 15%, and basic usability 5%. Scores compare live EVs within this market and ranking category, not across all markets or all ranking types.

The best SUV picks balance family-friendly space with range, charging, efficiency, and price rather than ranking only by size or battery capacity.
