TCC’s Bottom Line

A few more miles of range and modest upgrades push the 2020 Chevy Bolt EV electric hatchback back at the top for (non-Tesla) range, but there are other more charming urban electric cars.

The 2020 Hyundai Ioniq hybrids and plug-ins trade on affordability instead of luxury.

TCC Likes

Long, strong driving range
Ubiquitous Chevy-dealer support
Tall-hatchback utility

Variety of hybrid and electric choices
Normal, usable design
Intuitive controls

TCC Dislikes

A little too normal?
Rival models have speedier fast-charging
Ouch, those seats

Cramped seating space
Plug-in range not as good as some competitors
Normal design may bore some
