Top 10 most efficient electric and hybrid cars revealed<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Electric cars travel up to three times the distance of their petrol or diesel rivals for the same amount of money, according to research \u2013 but what models are the most efficient?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\"\"With interest in electric cars rising, many potential buyers are left confused by the way running costs are explained, with \u2018miles per kWh\u2019 difficult to compare to \u2018miles per gallon\u2019.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/ins><\/span><\/div>\n

To help consumers, car reviews and advice website Parkers.co.uk has developed a way of showing how far your car will go on a single pound \u2013 regardless of what fuel it runs on.<\/span><\/p>\n

The figure \u2013 dubbed \u2018miles per pound\u2019 (mpp) \u2013 reveals how much a car can travel for \u00a31 of petrol, diesel or electricity.<\/span><\/p>\n

The study found the Kia e-Niro First Edition and the Renault Zoe 65kW are the most efficient models on sale in the UK today, with the cars capable of traveling 33.1 miles per pound (mpp) of electricity.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is more than three times as far as the most economical version of the Ford Fiesta (9.3mpp), the UK\u2019s best-selling vehicle, when using official testing figures.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the average UK motorist driving around 7,150 miles per year, they would spend just \u00a3216 over a 12 month period if they charged their Kia e-Niro or Renault Zoe from home.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Tesla Model 3 Standard Range was the third most economical, covering 32.3mpp, while the Volkswagen e-Golf was fourth on 30.8mpp.<\/span><\/p>\n

Parkers.co.uk calculated the cost for electric cars based on home charging prices rather than using public charging points, as costs for public charging can vary wildly.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mpp data is also only available for cars on sale since 2017 and that are also currently available to buy.<\/span><\/p>\n

For this reason, the Hyundai Kona Electric, which could travel 30.8mpp, does not appear on the list as it is sold out due to high demand.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keith Adams, editor of\u00a0Parkers.co.uk<\/a>, said: \u201cWe created miles per pound as a way of demystifying the running costs of electric vehicles (EVs) because above and beyond their range, and how long they take to charge, there is little uniformity in how carmakers express just how much energy these cars use.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAs interest in EVs becomes more widespread, there remains a lot of confusion around running costs but the MPP figure generates a figure that is relatable to anyone.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn a nutshell, it tells you how much it costs to drive any EV after plugging it up at home and topping it up on domestic electricity.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn addition, miles per pound should help drivers who know how many miles they cover in a year to work out up-front fuelling costs, and possibly choose a more expensive electric car over its petrol counterpart.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cTaking fuelling costs into account, monthly costs for internal combustion engine (ICE) cars and electric vehicles (EVs) are much closer than the gap in list price might suggest.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOn something like a Volkswagen Golf, going electric will save you around \u00a370 per 1,000 miles.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd interest is rising. People are searching before they buy. Traffic to our Electric Cars section has grown by 80 per cent since the beginning of 2019, and it\u2019s continuing to accelerate strongly.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Parkers.co.uk\u00a0based the price of electricity on the cost per kilowatt hour on a domestic tariff, while petrol and diesel is based on the AA Fuel Price Reports.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mpp metric has been launched as the EV market continues to grow.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), sales of purely electric cars are up by more than 200% in 2019, with the market share increasing from 0.7% to 2.2%.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keith Adams added: \u201cAs range improves, electric cars are becoming a more and more enticing option and the miles per pound tool really drives down how cheap these zero-emission vehicles are when you\u2019re on the road.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhile it\u2019s easy to be put off at the price of an electric car, when you look at it from a monthly costs perspective the prospect is all the more attractive. The running costs are low, there is zero road tax and, from next year, zero company car tax, too.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
