I’ve driven over 42 electric cars this year — and these are the 13 coolest features I’ve checked out

Coolest EV features showing Rivian R1S, Lucid Air Touring, and GMC Sierra EV.

Driving a new electric car still feels so enjoyable, even when I test out a different one each week. So far this year alone I’ve tested more than 42 models to determine what are the best electric cars you can get right now. But while efficiency, range, and price tend to be what I look out for the most, I discover lots of other features that continue to amaze me.

Every vehicle I drive always has something new to offer that I haven’t seen before. And as much as I dream about flying cars being the future, these features I’ve personally tested already prove that the future is right now. From novel driving modes that let cars move diagonally, to others that prioritize safety, these are the coolest features I’ve seen in electric cars this year.
