Tesla did not make the cut for Autotrader's top 10 electric vehicles of 2023.

Autotrader, an online car shopping resource, released its list of this year's best EVs on Wednesday — and while brands like BMW, Hyundai, Ford, and more made the list, Elon Musk's company was notably missing.

The list includes only pure electric vehicles and does not feature any hybrids, plug-ins, or hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles. Vehicles had to be from the 2023 model-year and be priced at less than $100,000.

Given that some startup vehicles were assessed, another criteria was added: The vehicle had to be available for purchase in at least 15 states (many EV startups utilize a direct-to-consumer model that could limit the number of states where they're currently legally allowed to operate and sell).

Here's the full list, in alphabetical order.
