Every new EV coming in 2025 and beyond

EVs are becoming more and more common, and the rate at which they are being introduced isn't slowing down any time soon.

There are countless set to enter the market over the next few years. BMW will launch one of its first all-electric M cars with the new M3 EV and we’ll soon find more out about its electric supercar (above).

Jaguar will launch a four-door GT as part of its recent rebrand, and Alpine and Lotus will launch lightweight sports cars. Not to mention there are a host of all-new models to come from Chinese manufacturers.

Exciting times then, and this is just the beginning of the electric revolution. Join us as we preview the new electric cars coming soon.

Alpine A110 EV

The next-generation Alpine A110, due in 2026, will be lighter than combustion-engined rivals despite adopting an electric drivetrain.

Renault Group CEO Luca de Meo told Autocar that the company had made a “not rational” decision to “invest a lot of money” in a bespoke electric sports car platform for the next A110 and its derivatives – including a likely 2+2 version called the A310 – but it had “looked at Porsche for inspiration” in how to successfully build a sporting brand.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Alpine A290

This hot version of the Renault 5, in a way, marks the resurgence of RenaultSport, because it will offer customers a motorsport-tuned chassis with a battery mounted under the car to lower its mass and improve handling, as well as a low and wide stance for better stability and agility and four-piston brakes taken from the Alpine A110.

When it goes on sale at the beginning of 2025, it is set to offer two power outputs – the most powerful of those being the same 160kW (215hp) electric motor as the Renault Megane E-Tech Electric.

The battery will be 52kWh unit as the Renault 5, making for a 380km (236-mile) official range.

Expected deliveries: early 2025

Alpine A390

The A390 will become the French brand's introduction to the world of SUVs. Similar in profile to the Nissan Ariya - with which it's expected to share a similar platform - it will become a rival to the Audi SQ6 E-tron and Porsche Macan Electric.

It has been previewed by this - the A390 Beta Concept - which was revealed at the 2024 Paris motor show. It has been conceived as “a bigger A110 for five” that pairs a futuristic fastback design with best-in-class driving dynamics. 

Expected deliveries: late 2025

Ariel E-Nomad

This very green concept previews an 896kg (1975lbs), 210kW (285hp) electric performance off-roader.

British-based Ariel revealed this near-production-spec concept that previews an electric version of the Nomad 2, that was revealed in 2024.

Dubbed E-Nomad, the new car will provide similar performance to the ICE model while offering unique driving attributes, and it will only cost £10,000 more.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Aston Martin EV

Aston’s first EV was due in 2025, but this has now been pushed back due to low consumer demand.

When it arrives, expect a high-riding, four-wheel-drive electric GT which won’t directly replace the combustion-powered DBX.

It will use four motors for a combined output of up to 1120kW (1500hp).

Expected deliveries: 2027

Audi A6 E-tron

The A6 has always been the heart of Audi's range, which means this first electric version has a lot to live up to.

But with underpinnings developed in conjunction with Porsche, namely the Premium Performance Electric platform, it gets off to a good start. 

It will deliver up to 747km (464 miles) of range and also be offered as an estate.

A hot RS6 version is also expected with more than 600bhp and charging speeds for its 100kWh battery of up to 270kW.

Expected deliveries: early 2025

Audi Q6 Sportback 4x4 Dakar

Expected to go on sale in 2025, the Q6 Sportback Dakar is a toughened-up, rally-ready version of the regular Q6. It is dramatically taller and wider than the regular car, with a more aggressive-looking front bumper, redesigned lights and thick-walled all-terrain tyres.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Audi RS6 Avant E-tron

Complete with one electric motor on each axle, expect the RS6 E-tron Avant to have far more power than the 463kW (630hp) current petrol version. This power is set to offset the inevitable added weight of its large battery pack, so a 0-100kmh (0-62mph) time of less than 3.0sec is highly likely. 

As demonstrated by the A6 E-tron, the PPE platform upon which this car will sit can accommodate a 100kWh battery pack, which is likely to deliver a range of 700km (435 miles) in this application.

Expected deliveries: 2026

BMW 3 Series EV

The electric 3 Series will be the second model to use BMW's new Neue Klasse modular EV platform, following the launch of the closely related iX3 SUV in 2025.

It gets distinctive new kidney grilles, which wrap around the front of the car and house all the radars and cameras needed to facilitate next-generation advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

Inside, you can expect it to have large, irregularly shaped central touchscreens, haptic steering-wheel controls and a full-width head-up display in place of any physical switches and buttons.

Expected deliveries: 2026

BMW M3 EV

Derived from the next-generation 3 Series, the electric M3 will go on sale alongside a combustion variant, promising to reach new heights of performance and on-board technology.

Each major component of the electric drivetrain will be bespoke to the sporting division. The sporting brand has always used heavily reworked versions of standard BMW engines, and it will continue to use parts from its parent company as the basis for performance-focused electric systems.

BMW M CEO Frank van Meel recently told Move Electric's sister title Autocar that it will weigh more than the combustion-powered models that went before it, although will produce as much as 745kW (1000hp) to compensate.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Bentley EV

Bentley’s first EV will arrive in 2026 as “the world’s first true luxury urban SUV”, according to the British firm – and it will be one of 10 new EV and plug-in hybrid models to be launched in the space of a decade. The firm's first EV is due next year and will be designed, developed and produced at Bentley's factory in Crewe. 

While Bentley has yet to say how far the car will go on a charge, technical boss Matthias Rabe said "no customer will complain about range". 

Expected deliveries: 2027

Cadillac Vistiq

Splitting the difference between the 2025 Lyriq and Escalade IQ electric SUVs, the 2026 three-row Vistiq will offer 482km (300 miles) of range for $77,395, as well as 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in 3.7sec.

Inside, a 33inch curved display stretches across the dashboard.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Caterham Project V

Unveiled as a concept at the 2023 Goodwood Festival of Speed, it’s now been confirmed for production.

Completely unrelated to the Caterham Seven and built around a totally bespoke and all-new lightweight architecture, it is described more as a “small tourer” than an apex-hunting track car like its minimalist sibling. It categorically does not replace the Seven, although it has been designed with a rigid focus on the “simple, light and fun to drive” ethos that CEO Bob Laishley says must continue to define the Caterham brand into the electric era.

With a targeted real-world range of 400km (249 miles) and enough luggage space for a weekend away, it looks to provide everyday utility on a par with cars like the Alpine A110 and Mazda MX-5.

A single permanent magnet synchronous motor delivers 200kW (268bhp) to the rear wheels and is good for a claimed 0-100km/h (0-62mph) time of less than 4.5sec.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Chevrolet Bolt

General Motors CEO Mary Barra reversed a decision that had previously been taken to the kill the Bolt nameplate, and instead it will return offering “the same value as the original Bolt and much more”, according to Barra.

Pictured is the Bolt that just went off sale, but expect the new one to look very different.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Cupra Raval

Forget the World Cup – the bloodiest showdown of 2025 could well be when Spain’s Cupra Raval squares up against the Renault 5 in a bid to capture the mainstream electric car market. Cupra’s challenger certainly has the readies to take a win: circa-£25,000 price tag, sumptuous interior and a whole array of digital tricks. If anything can take Cupra from the Volkswagen Group’s super-sub to its star striker, this is the car.

Expected deliveries: 2025

Cupra Tavascan

Set to arrive in September 2024, the Tavascan is based on the Volkswagen Group's MEB platform and will come in two power guises: 210kW (282hp) and 250kW (335bhp). This positions it alongside the Tesla Model Y and its three siblings, the Skoda Enyaq, Audi Q4 and Volkswagen ID 4.

It uses the same 82kWh battery as the Volkswagen ID 5, which is good for 569km (341 miles) of range in its most economical form.

Expected deliveries: 2025

DS No 8

The No 8 is a new flagship car from French luxury brand DS. It is its first bespoke electric car, and also the first to adopt its new naming strategy.

Set to go on sale in the first half of next year, it will be offered with electric power only. The big headline is a 750km (466 mile) range.

Expected deliveries: early 2025

Ferrari EV

The world of electric cars might be a new one for Ferrari, but company boss Benedetto Vigna has promised that his first EV will be made "in the right way".

To make sure of that, it has already completed several thousand kilometres of on-road testing and the weight of its batteries will likely be stored deep within its chassis to keep the centre of gravity down.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Fiat Grande Panda

The big news here is that this retro-styled, rugged supermini will arrive in early 2025 and cost less than £22,000 / 25,000 euros.

At launch it will be offered with a 44kWh battery and 85kW (111hp) single electric motor, making it good for a 320km (199-mile range). A longer-range hybrid will also be available.

Its proportions stay true to the blocky, retro look of the original concept, whilst also reflecting that of the original Panda, which first hit the road in 1980. Elsewhere, it gets nods to its utilitarian roots with a chunky front skid plate, roof rails and black lower-body cladding.

Expected deliveries: early 2025

Ford Fiesta EV

If they happen, the spiritual electric successors to the Ford Fiesta and Focus will likely sit on a brand new 'skunkworks' platform, the development of which is being led by a former Tesla engineer.

According to the head of Ford's model E division Marin Gjaja, the first car on this platform will arrive in late 2026 or early 2027, but given its focus on affordability it will likely play host to models below the Puma.

Reports suggest that around 300 people are currently working on the architecture, with a team as varied as engineers from Tesla, Rivian and Apple, as well as Formula 1 aerodynamicists.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Ford Focus EV

While this 'skunkworks' platform is still in the engineering stages, it represents the first sign of Ford looking to explore markets below crossovers, SUVs, coupe-crossovers and other niches. 

With this in mind, an electric successor to the current Focus could also be on the cards. And given Ford's newest cars such as the 4.5-metre long Explorer and SUV-coupe Capri, there is room for the firm to explore sectors it once dominated.

The Focus may not come back using exactly the same bodystyle as it currently adopts, particularly given the demands of jacked-up crossovers. But the return of the name could at least drive down the price to something more people can afford.

Expected deliveries: 2028

Hyundai Ioniq 6 N

Hyundai's performance division is preparing its second model, the Ioniq 6 N, which will bring Porsche Taycan levels of performance and dynamic agility honed on the racetrack.

The car will have a very different exterior design to its regular counterpart. It will get wider wheel arches, larger alloys, red brake calipers, deeper side skirts, a larger rear spoiler and a more aggressive-looking rear bumper to suit the car's performance-oriented billing.

Riding on the same E-GMP platform as the Ioniq 5 N, the 6 N is likely to use an 86kWh battery to feed a dual-motor, four-wheel-drive powertrain that produces up to 480kW (641hp).

Expected deliveries: late 2025

Hyundai Ioniq 9

Revealed in 2024 as Hyundai's answer to the Volvo EX90 and Kia EV9, the new electric seven-seater was first shown as a concept a few years ago. It is the brand's largest and most luxurious car yet, and shares its E-GMP platform with the Ioniq 5 crossover and Ioniq 6 saloon.

It will be available from launch with three choices of powertrain. The 160kW (215hp), rear-driven Long-Range car is the most efficient and claims the headline 620km (385-mile) projected maximum range figure, while the 230kW (308hp) dual-motor car returns 515km (320 miles) per charge and the AWD Performance model, with 320kW (429bhp), manages 500km (311 miles).

Expected deliveries: 2025

Hyundai Nexo

The Nexo isn't actually a battery electric car, it's powered by hydrogen. Nevertheless, the result of its propulsive processes are the exact same as an EV - no emissions. 

Under the skin, the latest Nexo is expected to be a significant upgrade on the original car. So expect it to better three 52-litre hydrogen tanks, a 95kW fuel cell stack and a 1.56kWh battery, with a range exceeding 666km (414 miles) between fill-ups.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Jaguar GT

The concept has already been revealed, but the production car it previews will be a four-door GT with a range in excess of 700km (435 miles), ultra-rapid charging and a dual-motor powertrain with more than 430kW (575bhp).

The car will have a long, probing bonnet and a minimalist but imposing front end that houses a distinctive new grille motif said to be the new face of the Jaguar brand.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Jeep Recon

The latest rival to the Land Rover Defender will arrive in 2025 in the form of the 450kW (600hp) Jeep Recon. It comes as part of the American firm's push to reinvigorate itself in Europe, and will feature a 600km (373-mile) electric range and 0-100km/h (0-62mph) time of just 3.5sec.

Built in the US and set to be released there first, it will be offered and positioned as a raw take on off-road Jeeps of old, with options including removable doors and an open-top design, as on the Wrangler which will sit alongside it.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Kia EV2

The affordability-focused Kia EV2 is set to arrive in 2026 as a rival to the new Renault 5 E-Tech. The small, high-riding hatchback will sit on the same on the same E-GMP platform as Kia's flagship electric cars, the EV6 and EV9 SUVs. 

You can expect the car to have a boxy silhouette similar to that of the Soul EV, with column-like headlights like those of the EV9.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Kia EV4

The EV4 will become the first saloon in Kia's electric line-up. Featuring a striking, coupé-like design that has also been aerodynamically optimised, the EV4 is as distinctive as it is new-age.

It continues this theme inside, where you will find trim from recycled cotton that has been dyed with madder roots and walnut shells, while hand-woven fabric strips adorn the storage area and dashboard to give a 3D effect.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Lotus Emeya

What is claimed to be the world's fastest-charging EV, the Emeya represents Lotus's take on the Porsche Taycan, complete with a peak charging rate of 402kW. That allows it to top up its 102kWh battery from 10%-80% in 14 minutes; a battery that will provide a range of up to 610km (378 miles).

The quickest version makes use of a dual-motor powertrain that sends up to 675kW (905bhp) to all four wheels; good for a 0-100km/h (0-62mph) time of 2.8sec.

Expected deliveries: early 2025

Lucid Gravity

After the success of the Air saloon, and its immense 837km (520 mile) range, Lucid is branching out into three-row SUVs.

It will still have 725km (450 miles) of range, but also space for the whole family and the dog.

Expected deliveries: late 2025

Maserati MC20 Folgore

Above this car's most obvious draws, including a likely power output of 560kW (750bhp) and likely range of up to 482km (300 miles), Maserati is aiming to not only increase performance over its combustion-engined sibling, but do nothing to lose that car's character or sense of engagement. 

It’s anticipated that it will use the same tri-motor powertrain as the smaller Granturismo Folgore, with two motors on the rear axle and one at the front.

Expected deliveries: late 2025

Mercedes-AMG GT EV

The first dedicated electric car to come from Mercedes' performance division is likely to be the firm's most powerful road car yet, complete with a 745kW (1000bhp), quad-motor powertrain and four-wheel drive.

This will be only the fourth completely bespoke car Mercedes-AMG has launched, after the SLS and rest of the GT range.

Expected deliveries: late 2026

Mini Aceman JCW

The Aceman is the last piece of the jigsaw for Mini, and it’s now on sale in all forms, apart from as a hot JCW. 

Expect 185kW (250bhp) or more and a more aggressive, sporting chassis set-up.

Expected deliveries: 2025

Nissan Ariya Nismo

Nismo's first model since the 370Z is based on the top-specification Nissan Ariya e-4orce, but it gets more power than that car, as well as bespoke dynamics, a Nismo driving mode and more aggressive exterior design touches.

It is set to arrive in two specifications, called B6 and B9. The entry-level B6 car uses a 66kWh battery and produces 270kW (362bhp). The B9, meanwhile, uses a 91kWh battery - 4kWh more than the current largest-capacity Ariya - and puts out 320kW (429bhp).

Expected deliveries: early 2025

Peugeot e-408

The latest addition to Peugeot's compact electric car range, the e-408 sits on Stellantis's e-CMP2 platform and adopt the company's favoured electric drivetrain, albeit with a slightly larger battery. The 58kWh unit allows for a 452km (281 mile) range and powers the front wheels through a 155kW (210hp) range. 

Expected deliveries: early 2025

Polestar 3

Polestar's second electric car is also its first SUV, with first deliveries scheduled for February 2025. It sits on Volvo’s new SPA2 platform, and will launch with a rear-biased dual-motor powertrain producing 360kW (483bhp); enough to send its 2584kg heft from 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in 5.0sec. An optional Performance Pack adds an extra 20kW (27bhp), shaving 0.3sec off the 0-100km/h (0-62mph) sprint.

Electric range for the Long Range version is pinned at 610km (379 miles), together with a peak charging rate of 250kW.

Expected deliveries: early 2025

Range Rover Electric

Final stage testing is being completed for JLR's flagship ahead of its launch later this year. Until now, it has been shown winter testing in the Arctic Circle with a design that only subtly differentiates it from its pure-combustion and plug-in hybrid derivatives.

Beyond earlier confirmation by JLR that it will use an 800V charging architecture, no specific technical details or performance figures have been given.

Expected deliveries: 2025

Range Rover Sport EV

Arriving next year, the Range Rover Sport EV is being readied as a high-powered rival to the likes of the Lotus Eletre and Porsche Cayenne EV.

The prototype has several key changes over the petrol-engined Range Rover Sport, including a blanked-off grille and covers for the regular version's exhaust pipes.

Its battery pack can be seen set between the front and rear axles, and the charging port is expected to lie behind the conventional fuel filler cap, as it does on the more luxurious Range Rover Electric.

Expected deliveries: 2025

Renault 4

Set to be the "Swiss Army knife" of small SUVs, the Renault 4 should arrive next year as a considerably taller offering compared to the smaller 5 - to which it is related - with higher seating, greater ground clearance and probably a softer ride.

The 4 shares the 5’s three single-motor, front-driven powertrain options and we will be driving it shortly.

Expected deliveries: 2025

Rivian R2

The excellent Rivian R1S and R1T were deemed to big for European customers, so this slightly smaller R2 will be coming to fill that gap (it’s still almost 5 metres long).

Rivian are targeting a range of 550km (342 miles) and 0-100km/h (0-62mph) time of just 3.2sec.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Rivian R3

Rivian’s smallest electric car will be this, but don’t expect anything too small, it’ll still be Kia EV6 sized, although a bit taller.

Under the retro bodywork will be single, dual and tri-motor powertrains providing a range of over 480km (300 miles) in all forms.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Suzuki e-Vitara

The e-Vitara is the brand's first electric car. It sits on the new Heartect-e architecture, which has been adapted for more interior space and claims it will offer more than competitors. To that end, it has a packaging-friendly wheelbase of 2700mm.

At 4275mm long, 1800mm wide and 1636mm tall, it is slightly bigger than its combustion-powered counterpart, which positions it as a rival to models such as the Mini Aceman and Volvo EX30.

Two battery sizes will be made available: a relatively small 49kWh and larger 61kWh. Official range figures have not yet been disclosed, but Suzuki said it is targeting 400km (250 miles) from the bigger pack. It can charge at speeds of up to 150kW.

Expected deliveries: 2025

Tesla Model 2

There has been some confusion over whether the recently released ‘Robotaxi’ was in fact the long-awaited Model 2, but it seems they may both be made unrelated to each other.

When the 2 finally arrives, expect it to start from a bit more than the initially promised $25,000 and offer (480km) (300 miles) or more of range.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Tesla Model Y

The Tesla Model Y, the world’s best-selling car, will be substantially updated in 2025 with a new look, an interior overhaul and substantially improved performance figures.

Also expect a jump in range to as much as 600km (375 miles).

The SUV’s immense success makes it Tesla’s most important asset and the American EV maker will look to leverage it in an attempt to move out of a prolonged sales dip.

Expected deliveries: early 2025

BMW Neue Klasse prototype

This slightly retro looking camouflaged BMW made headlined as fans hoped for an imminent production version to succeed where the innovative i8 left off.

Unfortunately, it is likely that it will remain a (working) concept, although it could see limited production as an ultra-exclusive special.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Aehra SUV

The first model to come from Italian EV start-up Aehra will be a $200,000 (£155,000) coupé-SUV designed to carry four NBA basketball players in comfort. It will be powered by a three-motor powertrain outputting 600kW (800hp).

Expected deliveries: early 2026

Aehra Sedan

The Aehra Sedan is a sleeker foil to the Aehra SUV, with a more aerodynamic body that will supposedly allow a range of 800km (497 miles) between charges. Nailing the “basic physics” is the priority for the saloon according to engineering chief Franco Cimatti, who was previously responsible for developing Lotus’s EPA platform.

Expected deliveries: late 2026

Alfa Romeo 4E

The Alfa Romeo 4E will serve as a brand-building halo model amid the brand’s shift to offering solely electric cars. Product boss Daniel Guzzafame said a new Alfa Spider would become “within reach” once the brand has five EVs in its line-up, suggesting it won’t arrive until after 2027.

Expected deliveries: 2028

Alfa Romeo Giulia

The Giulia saloon will move onto Alfa parent firm Stellantis’s radical new STLA Medium platform as it goes electric. It will retain its sporting character, though, in Quadrifoglio spec, it promises to offer outputs of up to 745kW (1000hp).

Expected deliveries: late 2026

Alfa Romeo GTV

Alfa design boss Alejandro Mesonero-Romanos has confirmed that design work on a new coupé, inspired by the famed SZ, continues behind the scenes. He hinted that it could make production if the brand’s fortunes continue to improve under Stellantis stewardship and that it would likely be a variant of the Giulia.

Expected deliveries: 2028

Alfa Romeo large electric saloon

Alfa will launch a BMW 5 Series rival around 2027, aiming it primarily at the Chinese and North American markets. It will be based on parent company Stellantis’s new STLA Large platform, which allows for body lengths between 4.76m (about as long as a Mercedes-Benz C-Class) and 5.13m (the old Jaguar XJ) and ride heights from 140mm to 287mm. It can also offer huge performance, with 0-100km/h (0-62mph) times as low as 2.0sec and ranges of up to 800km (497 miles).

Expected deliveries: 2028

Alpine A310

The rakish Alpine A310 of the '70s will be reborn as an electric GT, as part of the French brand’s expansion to a seven-car line-up. It will be based on the same Alpine Performance Platform (APP) as the next A110, due in 2027, but offer more practical 2+2 seating – loosely mirroring the relationship between the Porsche 718 Cayman and the Porsche 911.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Ariel Hipercar

The Ariel Hipercar certainly lives up to its name, packing four electric motors which combined to output a mammoth 1180bhp. It justifies its jet-fighter looks, too, with a gas-turbine range-extender that helps to keep its 62kWh battery topped up.

Expected deliveries: mid 2025

Audi A3 EV

The current Audi A3 will be replaced by an all-new model based on the Volkswagen Group’s MEB platform later this decade. It may be sold in parallel with a heavily-updated petrol/diesel model – similar to the A4, A6 and Q5.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Audi electric 4x4

Audi bosses are plotting a new go-anywhere 4x4 to rival the Land Rover Defender. It could borrow its underpinnings from new sibling brand Scout’s upcoming SUV and pick-up truck, offering steep departure angles and the ground clearance needed to traverse tricky terrain.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Audi R8 EV

Audi is set to base its follow-up to the R8 atop a bespoke EV platform that it's co-developing with Porsche. Work is said to be well under way on the new supercar, tipped to offer a greater power output than any other car in Audi’s line-up.

Expected deliveries: 2027

Audi TT EV

The petrol TT has now been retired, but work continues apace on its electric successor. Audi Sport is said to be in an “intense concept phase” for the small coupé’s next iteration, due to arrive within the next five to 10 years. Managing director Rolf Michl said its development is a “huge job” and added that “it will be different but emotional”. 

Expected deliveries: 2030

Porsche Cayman 983

The next generation of the 2026 Porsche 983 Cayman EV will arrive within the year, set to adopt a bespoke electric sports car platform that is designed to mimic the current combustion cars’ mid-engined characters and that could go on to underpin future Audi and Lamborghini models.

Expected deliveries: early 2026

Porsche Boxster EV

Will be the sister car to the new Cayman. Rumour has it that Porsche may modify both to fit a combustion engine in. If it does, expect it to be hybridised.

Expected deliveries: early 2026

Jeep Recon

Prototypes for the Jeep Recon are appearing on Michigan’s roads, giving us our first look at testing of Jeep’s next electrified offering. Only minimal disguise on the Jeep’s “grille” and D-pillars keep us from a fully exposed, production-ready look at the Recon’s exterior.

The Recon maintains the exposed hinges and removable doors, making for a nice tie in with the Wrangler’s open-air vibes. The prototypes are all running on Nexen Roadian ATX tires, which were sized at 285/70R17 on the model shown to dealers.

The Recon rides on Stellantis’ STLA Large architecture, which also underpins the Jeep Wagoneer S EV. Stellantis execs have suggested that the Recon (and Wagoneer S) could also be powered by internal combustion, depending on customer preferences, but all three prototypes spotted thus far have been EVs.

Expected deliveries: late 2025

Mercedes GLB

Mercedes-Benz has started testing the next generation GLB which will be on the market from 2026. The new model will be launched as either a petrol hybrid or EV. The prototype here is electric.

The GLB will share the MMA platform with the new CLA; both will be available with rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive.

The 800-volt architecture should be able to charge with up to 320 kW and generate a range of around 400km (250 miles) in 15 minutes. The long-range model with a large battery is expected to have a range of up to 750km (466 miles).

It remains to be seen whether there will also be a slightly smaller GLA in the future or not.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Kia PV5

In addition to the PV5 Cargo as a commercial vehicle, the PV5 will also be available as a passenger car with either two or three rows of seats, which is ideal as a large-capacity taxi or for large families.

The prototype photographed here shows the passenger version with side windows and sliding side doors on both sides.

Expect to see some new design language for Kia being shown with the formal reveal, as this is Kia’s first van for western markets.

Kia is already benchmarking the new PV5 against the Volkswagen ID. Buzz and the Citroen E-Berlingo during development.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Mercedes V-Class

Mercedes-Benz is focussing on a purely electric drive in the new V-Class for 2026. But it's not just the drive system that will change in the next generation, the V-Class will also look very different. Whether as a commercial van for tradesmen, a large-capacity taxi or a mini-van for families, the new V-Class will be ultra-modern. This is demonstrated by all the cameras and sensors around this prototype, which will certainly also be state-of-the-art in terms of autonomous driving.

Expected deliveries: 2026

Genesis GV60 Magma

The Genesis GV60 prototype isn’t camera-shy anymore.

In the third quarter of 2025, Genesis will start series production of its first high-performance model, the GV60 Magma. A performance-SUV with N technology. The first prototypes have now been spotted in Europe and are out on the road for testing.

The Genesis GV60 Magma Concept celebrated its world premiere at last year's Goodwood Festival of Speed, and the production version may well be presented there this year.

In terms of performance, the GV60 Magma is speculated to have over 520kW (700hp). In addition to the aeroflaps on the roof, which are otherwise only seen on the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, the GV60 Magma has a very sporty front end with large air intakes.

Expected deliveries: late 2025

Mercedes GLC

This is the best look yet at the new fully electric Mercedes-Benz GLC for 2026. The latest prototypes show a close look at the new front and the new rear end.

In addition to the finished headlights, which still lack the final lamp graphics in the form of a star as daytime running lights, the grille and the straight line of the bonnet can now also be recognised.

Expect the GLC to offer a range surpassing 650km (400 miles) in long range form, and a price beyond 70,000 euros (£60,000).

Expected deliveries: late 2026

Nissan Leaf

Seen testing in North America, the new Leaf will have a more global positioning than its predecessor, which focused on the European and Japanese markets primarily.

As such it will have a higher ride height and adopt a look similar to the larger Ariya, but with a Kicks- and Murano-inspired lighting theme. The Leaf’s new attitude was previewed by Nissan’s Chill Out concept—which bowed three years ago.

While the current Leaf rides on an out-dated, Nissan Versa-based platform, this SUV-flavoured replacement will ride on an adaptation of the Alliance CMF-EV platform, which also underpins Nissan’s Ariya EV.

As a sister car to the Renault Scenic, we expect either a 60kWh or 87kWh battery – for ranges between 420km (260 miles) and 620km (385 miles) – and a choice of either a 168bhp or 215bhp motor on the front axle. Four-wheel drive is likely to be an option.

Expected deliveries: late 2025

Polestar 5

The new Polestar 5 will be launched in 2025 and is currently undergoing winter test drives near the Arctic Circle in Scandinavia. The design and performance of this 4-door GT clearly make it a Tesla Model S and Porsche Taycan rival.

No wonder the prototype features a large carbon-ceramic brake system, as the Polestar 5 comes with 670kW (900hp).

In the dark, the impressive graphics of the tail lights immediately catch the eye. As with the Polestar 4, the Polestar 5 does not have a rear window, but instead has a camera installed for a view to the rear.

It is the first model to be built on a new scalable aluminium architecture that's bespoke to Polestar and has been engineered in the UK at the firm's development centre at Horiba MIRA.

Expected deliveries: early 2026
