In Brazil, according to Inmetro (National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology) and Conpet, responsible for consumer labeling, the most economical all-electric vehicle is the Renault e-Kwid. This is because the vehicle has an energy consumption of 0.44 megajoules per kilometer (MJ/Km).
In summary, the lower this value, the lower the expense committed by the vehicle to move.
As stated, in 2022, 49,245 units of hybrid (HEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and electric (BEV) vehicles were sold in the country. This data demonstrates a considerable increase of 41% in comparison with the previous year, when 34,990 cars had been registered, according to the Brazilian Electric Vehicle Association (ABVE).
The initial price of the electric vehicle is indeed higher compared to ignition cars, however, the cost-effectiveness of these cars can overcome the difference in value. For that reason, we have listed the most economical cars to help you cut some of the expenses.
The declaration of electric energy efficiency data follows the same methodology, defined by the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) in the United States, which uses the same SAE standard, already endorsed by automakers and vehicle importers in Brazil since 2020. This information was provided by Inmetro itself.
This Inmetro survey is known as the “Brazilian Vehicle Labeling Program (PBEV)” and has been in existence for 15 years, with disclosure always taking place in February. In this edition, there are 747 models and their versions.
Of this total, 134 are hybrids, 68 are pure electric (VE) and 49 Plug-in hybrid (VEHP).
