Future Electric Vehicles: The EVs You’ll Soon Be Able to Buy
These electric vehicles aren’t available on dealership lots yet, but they represent the next wave of innovation in automotive technology. Whether they remain as concept studies or make it to showrooms, these models hint at the exciting evolution of electric driving.
Alfa Romeo Giulia EV (Expected: 2028)
Alfa Romeo has confirmed that the gasoline-powered Giulia sedan will be updated in the coming years with a fully electric powertrain. The base version is expected to deliver around 350 horsepower, while the high-performance Veloce variant is rumored to produce close to 800 horsepower. For automotive enthusiasts, the top-of-the-line Quadrifoglio model promises to carry the historic name and push output well beyond 1,000 horsepower. The new Giulia is being developed on Stellantis Group’s STLA Large platform, supporting 800-volt ultra-fast charging and offering a driving range of up to 500 miles on a full charge. Recent whispers suggest that like the Dodge Charger, the Giulia may also be offered with conventional internal combustion engines.
Alfa Romeo Stelvio EV (Expected: 2027)
Before the next-generation Giulia arrives, Alfa Romeo plans to introduce a new Stelvio. Similar to the upcoming sedan, the Stelvio will be built on the STLA Large platform and will be available in both all-electric and hybrid versions. However, the release of the electric SUV has been postponed, and it is not expected to be available in the United States until 2027.
Alpine EVs (Expected: 2030)
Alpine, the French sports car subsidiary of Renault, intends to enter the North American market later this decade. The strategy was initially set to be led by the compact A390, a stylish fastback crossover with a 470-horsepower tri-motor setup, but these plans have changed. The U.S. introduction of Alpine’s electric vehicles was originally scheduled for 2027, but the implementation of high tariffs on imported vehicles by the Trump administration has caused Alpine to delay its rollout. If Alpine does proceed with entering the U.S. market, the company now indicates it will do so with the upcoming A110 electric sports car and a larger utility vehicle.

Audi TT EV (Expected: 2027)
Audi plans to unveil a new electric sports car in 2027, currently previewed by the radical Concept C. Audi states that the new sports car, which is approximately the same length as a Porsche 911, will sit somewhere between the TT and the R8 in terms of performance capabilities. It will also signal the introduction of a fresh design language for the brand. Internally, the Concept C showcases Audi’s embrace of physical controls, even featuring a screen that can retract completely when not in use. Details regarding the powertrain remain sparse, but the Concept C was designed as a rear-wheel-drive vehicle. We anticipate it will share a platform with the upcoming Porsche 718 EV. Audi has confirmed that the production version will also offer a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive variant, and the RWD concept is reported to weigh 3,726 pounds.
Bentley EV SUV (Expected: 2027)
Bentley’s inaugural electric vehicle will be revealed in 2026. The luxury automaker characterizes this model as a “luxury urban SUV” positioned below the gasoline-powered Bentayga in its lineup. Although Bentley describes the EV as “compact,” the new vehicle will maintain imposing dimensions, measuring up to 197 inches in length. A concept car named the EXP 15 previews the Bentley EV’s styling, featuring a bold, squared-off front end, an elongated hood, and a luxurious interior cabin. The electric SUV may utilize the same platform as the upcoming Porsche Cayenne EV, and U.S. sales are expected to commence in early 2027. Based on trademark filings, we believe it will be named the Barnato, after one of Bentley’s racers and executives from the 1920s. Plans for additional Bentley electric vehicles have been postponed until at least 2030.
BMW i3 (Expected: Late 2026)
The arrival of the BMW i3 marks an electric companion to the long-running BMW 3-Series. It adopts BMW’s distinctive new design language and rides on the same Neue Klasse platform that underpins the iX3 SUV. An 800-volt architecture supports ultra-fast charging capabilities of up to 400 kW, while the 109-kWh battery is estimated to provide a driving range of approximately 440 miles on a full charge. Initially, the i3 will be offered in a single trim, the 50 xDrive, delivering 463 horsepower and 476 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels. The interior features a radical new layout, including a slim display integrated along the bottom edge of the windshield and a trapezoidal central touchscreen. Sales of the i3 are scheduled to commence before the close of 2026.
BMW iM3 (Expected: 2027)
The upcoming BMW i3 will also spawn the first all-electric M3 model. The iM3, as it is expected to be named, will be built on BMW’s next-generation EV platform, featuring an 800-volt electrical architecture. A quad-motor powertrain, with two electric motors on each axle, is anticipated to produce well over 600 horsepower, ensuring the iM3 delivers exceptional performance. The front motors can also be disengaged, and while BMW suggests this is intended to increase highway cruising range, drivers will undoubtedly appreciate the performance potential for dynamic handling. BMW is also planning simulated gear shifts and engine sounds to enhance the driving experience, sampling everything from the E92 M3’s V-8 to the E64 M6’s 5.0-liter V-10.

BMW iX3 (Expected: Summer 2026)
The BMW iX3 arrives as an electric counterpart to the brand’s highly popular X3 SUV and ushers in a distinct new design aesthetic. It features a slimmer interpretation of the iconic “kidney” grille, reminiscent of classic models like the 2002. The iX3 will be introduced in the U.S. market with a dual-motor variant that produces 463 horsepower, enabling the SUV to accelerate to 62 mph in a claimed 4.9 seconds. The 109-kWh battery is anticipated to provide close to 400 miles of driving range and is capable of charging at speeds up to 400 kilowatts. Internally, the iX3 debuts a redesigned dashboard arrangement where a sleek dark strip running along the bottom of the windshield serves as a 43-inch, full-width head-up display, effectively replacing a conventional instrument cluster. A 17.9-inch touchscreen manages all primary infotainment functions. U.S. sales are scheduled to begin in the summer of 2026.
BMW iX4 (Expected: 2027)
BMW is currently developing an electric replacement for the X4, the sportier alternative to the X3 featuring a sloping roofline. Expected to be named the iX4, this new “coupe-SUV” will be offered exclusively with electric powertrains and will be closely related to the iX3 that launches in 2026. Similar to the iX3, the iX4 is also anticipated to have an M-branded performance variant. Production of the iX4 is rumored to begin in November 2026, with U.S. sales expected to commence in 2027.
BMW iX5 (Expected: 2027)
BMW will continue its electrification efforts with the iX5, an electric counterpart to the mid-size X5 SUV. Instead of adopting the Neue Klasse platform underpinning the iX3, the iX5 will utilize a modified version of BMW’s CLAR platform—currently used in the iX electric SUV. This approach allows for the coexistence of an updated gasoline-powered X5 alongside its electric counterpart. The iX5 will feature a next-generation battery with improved energy density. The electric SUV is expected to be unveiled in late 2026 and go on sale in the U.S. in 2027. BMW is also planning a version with a hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain—co-developed with Toyota—which may be released before the end of the decade.
Caterham Project V (Expected: 2027)
Caterham, renowned for its minimalist sports cars, is planning to expand its lineup with an electric coupe that will enter production in 2027. Caterham aims to introduce the Project V, as it is currently known, in the U.S. market. This vehicle will be powered by a 268-horsepower electric motor sourced from Yamaha, mounted on the rear axle. The Project V will also feature a unique split-battery design, with a roughly 27 kWh battery located between the driver’s and front passenger’s legs, and another battery module positioned beneath the rear seat. Caterham is targeting a zero-to-62 mph
