These 4 electric SUVs are experts' favorites for sporty performance. Here's why

"SUVs are undoubtedly practical, but they can often be a bore. What if you also want sporty performance from your family-hauler? Surprisingly, your best bet might just be an electric SUV. Thanks in part to the inherent advantages of EV powertrain design, hair-raising acceleration is no longer exclusive to low-slung exotics. Plus, many automakers are now making well-rounded performance SUVs that also provide improved handling, stronger braking and sportier aesthetics."

"The standard GT dishes out 480 horsepower and 600 lb-ft of torque, while an optional Performance upgrade elevates the latter figure to a hearty 700 lb-ft. In Edmunds' testing, it helped the Mach-E GT sprint from zero to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds.To ensure that the rest of the vehicle can keep up with the powertrain, Ford has also outfitted the Mach-E GT with a sport-tuned adaptive suspension, high-performance brakes, and sport seats up front, all of which are standard."

"Chevrolet introduced its Blazer EV last year. It's a sensible pick for an electric SUV. But you'll be a lot more excited to drive the new high-performance 2025 Blazer EV SS. The Blazer SS flips the script with a huge increase in horsepower, uprated front brakes, and a thoroughly revamped suspension that adds stability and precision to spirited drives.With up to 615 horsepower available in Wide Open Watts (or WOW) launch control mode,"
