Got more money than you know what to do with? Here are the six most expensive EVs on sale

While the rest of us have been waiting patiently for mainstream electric cars to get cheaper so that we can actually afford them, there's a roped off VIP section in the car industry that's filled with squillionaires who can't spend enough on a car.
Especially electric hypercars that accelerate so fast they make everything look like going into warp speed on a space show, they love those. A million quid? Why not two. But let's ease ourselves in at the cheaper end of the ultra high net worth car park and work our way from there, shall we?
Mercedes-Maybach EQS SUV 680
Price: £200,870
Mercedes keeps trying to make a modern Maybach work, bless it, but buyers aren’t necessarily convinced. To sit in one of these beastly huge machines is to love them, though, even if you’d get your chauffeur to park round the corner of wherever it is you’re getting to.
The fundamental problem is that Rolls-Royce and Bentley don’t also make vans and driving school hatchbacks. If I had £200k sitting around though I’d get a Maybach EQS SUV just for the lazy Susan alloy wheels, aren’t they delightful?
The Spectre is the most expensive series production electric car on sale, though you can hardly imagine they’re chucking these things off the production line like the Ford Fiesta in its prime (RIP – at least until 2028 when it returns).
R-R reckons the Spectre is usually the second Rolls in a seven-car garage, which is a bonkers fact. An upgrade to the car has just been announced that has boosted range to a useful 390 miles WLTP. It’s nice to see a proper luxury car doing the electric thing properly – the tech is ideally suited to the kind of luxurious wafting that is Rolls-Royce’s signature move.
Despite all the fuss about the new Ferrari, the Italian carmaker claims that it has sold out its entire run all the way through to the end of 2027. There must be more millionaire tech bros than anyone realised.
The Luce’s 330-mile range is distinctly average, but if you’re wanting to be looked at then everyone’s reactions when you drive down the street will be fairly singular. Deliveries of left-hand-drive European cars begin in October, so you might be able to score a secondhand example before Christmas if you really want one.
We’re into obscenely priced territory now, with a seven figure cheque needed to get a Battista with four figure horsepower in your garage.
The Italian design house’s electric hypercar is officially sold out of its ‘limited’ run of 150 cars (as if there are that many people who would buy one) but we’re told that there are still some new and lightly used examples if you know where to look.
The R-badged version of the Nevera electric hypercar is meant to be a more track-focused, excitable ride, with a 0–62mph time of 1.9 seconds and 0–186mph in 7.9 seconds. You could be in the next county before the petrol powered MPV next to you at the lights has even changed gear.
The run was strictly limited to 40 examples, most of which are destined to sit in a ridiculous collection and never be driven properly.
Lotus Evija
Price: £2.4m
Can you imagine even having £2.4m, let alone £2.4m to drop on a dramatically overpowered, overstyled, ostentatious bit of kit aimed at bored billionaires?
The 2,039hp Lotus is the most powerful electric car on sale as well as being the most expensive. It has a 93kWh battery and a range of around 215 miles, which is no doubt considerably less if you try to enjoy any of the prodigious performance capabilities.
Have you seen anything you like? Don't forget to check out the used section at Electrifying.com... only joking, the hypercar section is currently down for maintenance.
But now that I properly check there are actually some Rolls-Royce Spectres listed on there with a bargain discount over the brand new prices. Joke's on me, I guess.
And of course if you're looking for something that sits just a little bit cheaper than these six cars you've got a feast with the likes of the Maserati GranTurismo Folgore, the fancier versions of the Porsche Taycan, the new Jaguar Type 01 when it arrives, likewise the Range Rover Electric... the world's your oyster.
