Although there are more electric crossover SUVs on the way, the closest one now is the Audi E-Tron, which has a much shorter driving range but a more traditional SUV layout and a superior luxury-vehicle cabin.
The smaller Jaguar I-Pace lacks the possibility of a third row, but it handles especially well and the styling gets noticed.
Among gasoline-fueled alternatives, plug-in hybrid versions of the Porsche Cayenne and Volvo XC90 crossovers offer some all-electric around-town driving range with hybrid operation good for longer trips.
The smaller Tesla Model Y offers available seven-passenger seating with a much lower starting price—and without the falcon doors.
