The “small EV” field spans 64 U.S. models once Blazer-sized vehicles are included
The Chevrolet Blazer EV and Hyundai Ioniq 5 are not truly small, so this inventory uses a practical ceiling: passenger cars and two-row crossovers no larger than the Blazer EV. It separates 45 current/new choices, 12 announced arrivals, and 7 used-only or discontinued choices.
What the list says
Three useful starting points
Bolt / Leaf / Kona / EX30
Start here when parking footprint and price matter most. These are materially smaller than an Ioniq 5 or Blazer EV.
Ioniq 5 / EV6 / Model Y
The densest class, with strong alternatives from Ford, Volkswagen, Nissan, Toyota, Subaru and Chevrolet.
Blazer EV / Prologue / ZDX
Roomier two-row crossovers that fit your examples, but should not be confused with genuinely small EVs.

Method: scanned 1,144 search results and consolidated named models from 21 relevant pages across 12 sites on 24 August 2026. “Small” is a practical shopping boundary, not an EPA class: cars and two-row crossovers up to roughly Chevrolet Blazer EV size. Trim and drivetrain variants are collapsed; pickups, vans, sports/supercars, and three-row SUVs are excluded. Availability can vary by state and model year.
