Best bet is probably just using the marketplace websites like cars.com to see whata available in your price range. They all have a filter like "fuel type" to only see EVs and you can set your price range.

Thanks, that's close, and has all the filterable options I was looking for. However, it seems more tilted towards "individual cars that are for sale in your area now", while I was thinking "models that fit our criteria so we can order one for delivery in the future". It's useful for looking at options, but doesn't list things that aren't available here right now.
For whatever reason, the big car sites don’t list the range, so that’s a bummer.
But if you’re looking at new, and especially in the 2-3 year range that shouldn’t be nearly the issue it currently is.
Not US-based, but at least close, these Canadian sites I found quite useful

Keep in mind, a CAD $ ≈ 75¢US so price range will look off. Most of the models available will be available in both markets but they'll be slightly different trims and slightly different MSRP after currency conversion.
There really aren't all that many electric vehicle models currently available. Depending on your price point, you may also want to look at used EVs.
I use AutoTrader.com to search for different electric vehicle models in my area.
That being said, I strongly encourage you to take a look at a used Chevy bolt. They have some listed for between $15 and $16,000. Well they aren't huge vehicles, my family has used hours as a family car for 3 years without any major issues, although the hatchback space is pretty small.
