The cheapest electric cars in 2026 make environmentally friendly driving available to a wider audience

Dacia Spring

Dacia Spring: the cheapest electric car

Below we list the Top 10 cheapest electric cars in the UK in 2026.

The Dacia Spring remains in a class of its own, sitting well below £15,000 and leaving all its rivals behind on price. Beyond that, prices are falling fast – several EVs now sit under £22,000, which would have been unthinkable just a few years ago.

Nonetheless, the most affordable electric car need not break the bank, especially if you seek out a low-cost lease from a competitive broker.

While some of the very cheapest EVs still have limited range on a single charge, others are offering significantly above 150 miles of real-world range. This will be ample for most daily commutes and weekend trips.

You can compare all the characteristics for up to three cars by ticking the ‘Compare all statistics’ box. Alternatively, just click on ‘See all data for this car’ for comprehensive details of one car only. Finally, some of the cars have their own review – click on ‘Read our review’.
