We recently brought you the most efficient vehicles for 2022, but thought we’d get a little more specific, starting with SUVs and crossovers. We previously broke down the hybrid and traditional internal combustion utility vehicles with the best gas mileage, followed by a separate article focusing on the most fuel-efficient plug-in hybrid utility vehicles. Now we’re focusing on all-electric SUVs and crossovers.

Even when energy prices are cheap, many of us want to minimize our carbon footprint in our daily lives. So choosing a fuel-efficient vehicle can be a priority for drivers who want to both spend less and pollute less. Many electric vehicle buyers are particularly concerned about the distance they can travel between charges, but if your goal is to reduce operating costs and carbon footprint, you want to pay more attention to efficiency. global energy. The easiest way for a consumer to do this is to look at the APEThe combined mile-per-gallon equivalent (mpg-e) rating of .

Here are the 2022 electric SUVs and crossovers, ranked by mpg-e, at the time of this writing. Some models offer different powertrains with different battery capacities and number of electric motors (the latter often also equates to whether an EV is two- or four-wheel drive). For the purposes of this list, we’ve ranked them according to the most efficient version of each model (and which version it is, if any), and in addition to combined fuel economy, we’ve also listed their APE city ​​and highway mpg-e ratings.
