You've probably heard of range anxiety, and all the beef some people have when it comes to electric vehicles (EVs) and their ranges. Years ago, it could be said that range anxiety was something to worry about, but over the last five or so years, it's become irrelevant or not something you need to worry about. There are countless electric vehicles on the market that offer 300-plus miles of range, which, in the States, should get you to the nearest charging station. While these accusations often come from people who aren't ready to accept EVs, the reality is that 300 miles of range is enough and if you get stranded, it's kind of on the driver for not planning ahead.Even in today's age, roadside assistance brings portable chargers to get you back up and running in a matter of minutes. This isn't to say that people who dislike EVs are wrong because having an opinion in the car world is what makes this community unique. Rather, it's that one of the many stereotypes or myths that EVs get isn't really that accurate or reasonable. A good example of brands that eliminate the threat of "range anxiety" are some that are based out in the United States, offering long ranges on SUVs, trucks, and sedans.In order to give you the most up-to-date and accurate information possible, the data used to compile this article was sourced from various manufacturer websites and other authoritative sources, including EPA.2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ Sport ExteriorRelatedThe Electric SUV With The Longest Driving Range In 2025This electric SUV might offer more range than any other model on the market, but is it really worth the premium price? The Lucid Air Is One Of The Best EVs To Counter Range Anxiety 512 Miles Of Range In The Grand Touring Trim Silver Lucid Air Pure side-quarterThis may come as a surprise, but the Lucid Air offers the most extended driving range for an American EV and all EVs. Yeah, that's right, it is the longest-range electric vehicle available to the public. If you've heard of this "gem" before, you've probably received the overall breakdown of how luxurious and innovative this EV really is. One detail that goes unmissed sometimes is that it sits at the top of the list regarding EVs with the best driving ranges. Lucid offers the Air in four trims: Pure, Touring, Grand Touring, and Sapphire. Each trim is unique and different from the others inside and out, and the same can be said for its fuel economy and range. 2025 Lucid Air Fuel Economy And Range PureTouringGrand TouringSapphireFuel Economy (City)132-149 MPG119-133 MPGe114-129 MPGe108 MPGeFuel Economy (Highway)125-142 MPGe113-130 MPGe109-126 MPGe101 MPGeFuel Economy (Combined)129-146 MPGe116-132 MPGe112-128 MPGe105 MPGeRange372-420 Miles361-406 Miles446-512 Miles427 MileskWh/100 Miles23-26-kWh/100 Mi26-29-kWh/100 Mi26-30-kWh/100 Mi32-kWh/100 MiThe 2025 Lucid Air offers an impressive range on all four trims. The starting trim, the Pure, provides a combined MPG of 129 to 146 and an overall driving range of 372 to 420 miles. The reason there are two specifications for some models is that they come equipped with either 19- or 20-inch wheels, which ultimately affects the range and efficiency. For the Touring, it range drops down a bit, offering 361 to 406 miles. The third-highest trim, the Grand Touring, is the grade that offers the best range with its 446 to 512 miles. Taking a minute to let that soak in, it's beyond crazy that the Lucid Air GT provides 512 miles of range. The Sapphire is the most expensive and elevated trim and keeps a high range, delivering 427 miles non-stop. What Is Range Anxiety? Lucid If you're still wondering why this is important to discuss or relevant, giving a quick overview of range anxiety is probably a smart idea to cover. The overall point or definition of "range anxiety" is fearing that the electric car will run out of power before arriving at the destination. The issue that makes people fear this over gas-powered cars is that you simply can't fill the car up with gas and head back on your way. Instead, you'll need to charge your car, which can't really be done with a gas can.Many automotive manufacturers have been battling this by increasing the ranges of various EVs. Another one that was fairly brushed over earlier is roadside assistance, which can either charge you on the spot or tow you to the nearest charging station. Another area to note is the rise of charging stations, which has gone up year after year, slightly resolving the issue of range anxiety. EVs dying in the middle of a drive can indeed be a big headache, but it's practically the same when it comes to running out of gas. You're not always going to be by a gas station, and many times on the highway, you're miles from any gas station. Running out of fuel or electricity is practically the same, but somehow, the EV industry was the one that received a new definition of it.A blue 2022 BMW i4 M50 drivingRelatedRange Anxiety: What It Is, Why You Have It, And Why It Shouldn't MatterUnderstand range anxiety in electric vehicles, its psychological roots, and how technology and mindset changes can alleviate it. How The Lucid Air Stacks Up Against Other American Long-Range EVs Lucid Motors While you haven't learned about the pricing on the Lucid Air just yet, you've probably come to the conclusion, just based on looks, that it'll cost a pretty penny. This is true, and there isn't a need to worry or argue about "only expensive EVs come with long ranges". In the electric automotive industry, you will see that many expensive models come with longer ranges than affordable ones. There are plenty of cases of affordable EVs that offer 300-plus miles of range, but looking at other American EVs that provide the most range seems like it would be more fun to explore. Chevrolet Silverado EV Chevrolet The first American EV on the list that offers some impressive range is the Chevrolet Silverado EV. You'll notice that many car brands offer various configurations on their EVs, making it a bit confusing what you're really getting in terms of efficiency and range. To make it as easy on you without sounding like rocket science, the Silverado EV offers a driving range of 390 to 491 miles. This comes close to the 500-mile mark but falls short. It's worth noting that the Silverado EV sits among the top EVs when looking at driving ranges. Chevrolet starts their full-size electric pick-up truck at $75,195, reaching $97,895 for the highest trim. 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV Fuel Economy And Ranges Silverado EV (19-kW Charger)Silverado EV (11-kW Charger)Silverado EV 5WT (11 And 19-kW Charger)Silverado EV 8WTFuel Economy (City)70 MPGe74 MPGe77 MPGe74 MPGeFuel Economy (Highway)59 MPGe61 MPGe63 MPGe61 MPGeFuel Economy (Combined)64 MPGe68 MPGe70 MPGe68 MPGeRange390 Miles408 Miles422 Miles491 Miles Rivian R1T Rivian The next step down from the Chevrolet Silverado EV when it comes to its range is the Rivian R1T. If you thought the Lucid Air or Silverado EV had a lot of configurations, wait until you get a load of this luxury pick-up truck. To better understand the R1T, it's best to note that it's offered in three battery setups: Dual, Tri, and Quad. This can be taken even further, with Rivian offering beefed-up batteries with their "performance batteries". It gets pretty dicey, but the Dual Standard R1T offers the lowest driving range, 258 to 270 miles, whereas the Dual Max offers 380 to 420 miles. The Dual Max can utilize the performance battery or not and still offer both ranges, with the battery primarily focusing on "performance" rather than efficiency. The Rivian R1T comes with many price tags but sits around $69,900 to $99,900. 2025 Rivian R1T Fuel Economy And Ranges Dual StandardDual Large (Performance/Non Performance)Dual Large Plus (Performance/Non Performance)Dual Max (Performance/Non Performance)All-Terrain Dual LargeFuel Economy (City)85-95 MPGe85-94 MPGe85-89 MPGe86-93 MPGe82 MPGeFuel Economy (Highway)72-77 MPGe72-77 MPGe72-79 MPGe74-80 MPGe70 MPGeFuel Economy (Combined)79-85 MPGe79-85 MPGe78-82 MPGe80-87 MPGe76 MPGeRange258-270 Miles300-329 Miles317-330 Miles380-420 Miles289 MilesAll-Terrain Dual Large Plus (Performance/Non Performance) All-Terrain Dual Max (Performance/Non Performance) Tri-MaxAll-Terrain Tri MaxQuadFuel Economy (City)76 MPGe76 MPGe81 MPGe72 MPGeN/AFuel Economy (Highway)67 MPGe67 MPGe70 MPGe63 MPGeN/AFuel Economy (Combined)72 MPGe72 MPGe76 MPGe68 MPGeN/ARange292 Miles292 Miles371 Miles329 MilesN/A Tesla Model S Tesla It wouldn't be a range discussion without a Tesla appearing, and the Tesla Model S is up to bat with its 400-plus driving range. Tesla is one of the most well-known EV brands and possibly car brands as well, and the Model S is their premium sedan. The highest trim is the Plaid, notorious for its incredible power, with top speeds of up to 200 miles-per-hour and a 0-60 mile-per-hour sprint in 1.99 seconds. For its range, it doesn't compete like the others, offering 312 to 348 miles. For the base all-wheel drive model, it starts to pick things up, providing an estimated driving range of 380 to 402 miles. This knocks it down quite a bit when compared to the Lucid Air Grand Touring, but it stays in the ballpark of some of the other trims on all models listed. The Tesla Model S is another pricey EV with its added range, which starts at $79,990 to $94,990. 2025 Tesla Model S Fuel Economy And Range AWDPlaidFuel Economy (City)N/A97-108 MPGeFuel Economy (Highway)N/A89-99 MPGeFuel Economy (Combined)N/A93-104 MPGeRangeEst. 380-402 Miles312-348 Miles2024 Rivian R1TRelatedThe Premium Electric Truck That Justifies Every Dollar Over Its RivalsThis electric pickup truck scores high in design, technology, and most of all, its sheer utility. 512 Miles Of Driving Range Will Cost You $110,900 Lucid MotorsThere are a variety of EVs that will take on the task of eliminating the threat of range anxiety, but if you're trying to get the best EV that's available to the public that has the best chance to keep you charged and running, you might want to stick to the Lucid Air. Its range isn't the only area that it's successful in, with its performance possibly being just as impressive. The base trim starts at $69,900 and is the only grade to utilize a single electric motor and rear-wheel drive system. This setup delivers 430 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque.If the base isn't that appealing to you, and you need more power, the two middle grades, the Touring and Grand Touring, come with an additional motor, producing 620 to 819 horsepower figures. But say even that's not enough, and you just need more speed and getup, you'll probably want the Air Sapphire, which is one of the quickest EVs on the market. Powered by three electric motors, the Sapphire makes 1,234 horsepower and 1,430 pound-feet of torque. It's capable of launching you from 0-60 in 1.89 seconds. Now, this isn't going to come cheap, with a price range sitting amongst supercars, with an MSRP of $249,000. 2025 Lucid Air Performance Specifications PureTouringGrand TouringSapphireMotor SetupSingle-Electric MotorDual-Electric MotorDual-Electric MotorTriple-Electric MotorTransmissionSingle-SpeedSingle-SpeedSingle-SpeedSingle-SpeedHorsepower430 HP620 HP819 HP1,234 HPTorque406 LB-FT885 LB-FT885 LB-FT1,430 LB-FTDrivelineRear-Wheel DriveAll-Wheel DriveAll-Wheel DriveAll-Wheel Drive0-60 MPH4.5 Seconds3.4 Seconds3.0 Seconds1.89 SecondsTop Speed124 MPH140 MPH167 MPH205 MPHPrice$69,900$78,900$110,900$249,000 The Lucid Air Offers More Than Just Range Lucid Motors The Lucid Air dominates in range and performance, but as you could have guessed, especially after seeing price tags like that, it offers even more. Lucid Motors is a luxurious car brand, after all, and the Air is quite possibly one of the most luxurious models you can get. Now, there are some rivals, with Mercedes, Porsche, and Polestar putting up a good fight, but the Lucid Air tackles each task thrown its way. Whether you pick up the base model or go big and get the Sapphire, you'll be happy to know that all trims deliver performance, luxury, and, above all, range.
