Future Electric Vehicles: The EVs You’ll Soon Be Able to Buy
Electric cars represent the future of mobility, and automakers are aggressively expanding their EV lineups as the market matures. Major manufacturers, along with emerging disruptors like Lucid, Rivian, and others, are all developing new electric vehicles (EVs). What follows is a comprehensive overview of upcoming EVs, ranging from initial concepts to imminent production models—though it’s worth noting that some of these vehicles may never reach production.
Alfa Romeo Giulia EV (Expected: 2028)
Alfa Romeo has confirmed that the gasoline-powered Giulia sedan will undergo a significant redesign, transitioning to a fully electric powertrain. Industry analysts anticipate the base model will deliver approximately 350 horsepower, while the Veloce variant is expected to produce around 800 horsepower. The top-tier Giulia, retaining the prestigious Quadrifoglio designation, is projected to output upwards of 1,000 horsepower. This next-generation Giulia will be built on the STLA Large platform developed by Stellantis Group, supporting 800-volt ultra-fast charging capabilities and achieving a range of up to 500 miles. However, recent reports suggest the Giulia may also be offered with conventional combustion engines, similar to the Dodge Charger.
Alfa Romeo Stelvio EV (Expected: 2027)
Before the new Giulia arrives, Alfa Romeo plans to introduce a next-generation Stelvio SUV. This electric SUV is expected to utilize the same STLA Large platform as its sedan counterpart, offering both battery-electric and hybrid powertrains. The launch of the electric Stelvio has been delayed, and it is not anticipated to reach the United States until 2027.
Alpine EVs (Expected: 2030)
Alpine, the French sports car manufacturer owned by Renault, intends to enter the U.S. market later this decade. Initially, the brand’s American entry was set to be led by the A390, a sleek fastback crossover featuring a tri-motor powertrain generating 470 horsepower. However, these plans have since evolved. The U.S. debut of Alpine’s EVs was originally slated for 2027, but the imposition of substantial tariffs on imported vehicles by the Trump administration has resulted in delays. Should Alpine proceed with its U.S. expansion, the company now states it will do so with the upcoming A110 electric sports car and a larger SUV.
Audi TT EV (Expected: 2027)
Audi plans to release a new electric sports car in 2027, previewed by the radical Concept C. Audi indicates that this sports car, roughly the size of a Porsche 911, will occupy a performance niche between the TT and R8 models and will introduce a new corporate design language. Inside, the Concept C reveals Audi’s renewed emphasis on physical controls, even featuring a screen that can retract entirely when not in use. Powertrain details remain limited, but the Concept C was designed as a rear-wheel-drive concept, and it is expected to share a platform with the forthcoming Porsche 718 EV. Audi has confirmed that the production model will also be available as a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive variant, with the concept reportedly weighing 3,726 pounds.
Bentley EV SUV (Expected: 2027)
Bentley’s inaugural electric vehicle will be revealed in 2026. The luxury automaker describes it as a “luxury urban SUV” designed to sit below the gasoline-powered Bentayga in the brand’s lineup. While referred to as “compact,” the new Bentley model will retain substantial proportions, measuring up to 197 inches in length. The styling is previewed by the EXP 15 concept, featuring a bold, squared-off front fascia, a lengthy bonnet, and a luxurious interior. This electric SUV may utilize the same platform as the forthcoming Porsche Cayenne EV, with sales expected to commence in early 2027. Based on recent trademark filings, it is anticipated to be named the Barnato, honoring a former Bentley racer and executive from the 1920s. Subsequent Bentley EV models have been postponed until at least 2030.
BMW iX3 (Expected: Summer 2026)
The BMW iX3 emerges as the electric sibling to the long-running BMW X3 SUV. It introduces an unconventional new design language, featuring a thinner interpretation of the iconic “kidney” grille that pays homage to historical models like the 2002. The iX3 will be launched in the U.S. with a dual-motor variant delivering 463 horsepower, enabling the SUV to accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in 4.9 seconds. A 109-kWh battery is expected to provide a range approaching 400 miles and support fast-charging speeds up to 400 kilowatts. Inside, the iX3 debuts a revised dashboard setup, where a slim, dark strip along the base of the windshield functions as a 43-inch, full-width head-up display, replacing a conventional gauge cluster. A 17.9-inch touchscreen manages all primary infotainment functions. Sales will begin in the summer of 2026.
BMW i3 (Expected: Late 2026)
The upcoming BMW i3 is scheduled to arrive as an electric counterpart to the long-running BMW 3-Series sedan, adopting BMW’s new design language and riding on the same Neue Klasse platform that underpins the iX3 SUV. The 800-volt architecture supports 400-kW fast-charging, while the 109-kWh battery is expected to provide an estimated 440 miles of range. The i3 will initially launch with a single trim, the 50 xDrive, which sends 463 horsepower and 476 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels. The interior features a radical new layout, including a thin display running along the base of the windshield and a trapezoidal central touchscreen. Sales of the i3 are set to begin before the end of 2026.
BMW iM3 (Expected: 2027)
The upcoming BMW i3 will also give rise to the first all-electric M3. This model, expected to be branded as the iM3, will utilize BMW’s next-generation EV platform, which incorporates an 800-volt electrical architecture. A quad-motor powertrain, featuring two electric motors per axle, is anticipated to generate well over 600 horsepower, ensuring the iM3 delivers exhilarating performance. The front motors can be decoupled; while BMW claims this enhances highway range, enthusiasts may envision some drifting capabilities. BMW is also planning simulated engine noises and gearshifts to enhance driver engagement, having sampled auditory profiles ranging from the E92 M3’s V-8 to the E64 M6’s 5.0-liter V-10.
BMW iX4 (Expected: 2027)
BMW is developing an electric replacement for the X4, the sleeker alternative to the X3 that features a sloping roofline. Expected to be named the iX4, this new “coupe-SUV” will be available exclusively with electric powertrains and will be closely related to the iX3 that goes on sale in 2026. Similar to the iX3, the iX4 is also expected to spawn an M-branded performance variant. Production of the iX4 is rumored to begin in November 2026, with U.S. sales likely to commence in 2027.
BMW iX5 (Expected: 2027)
BMW continues to electrify its lineup with the iX5, an electric counterpart to the mid-size X5 SUV. Rather than using the Neue Klasse platform that supports the iX3, the iX5 will utilize an adaptation of BMW’s CLAR platform—currently underpinning the iX electric SUV. This approach allows for an updated gasoline-powered X5 to coexist with its electric sibling. The iX5 will feature a next-generation battery with enhanced 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—that may become available before the end of the decade.
Caterham Project V (Expected: 2027)
Caterham, renowned for its lightweight, minimalist sports cars, intends to expand its offerings with an electric coupe scheduled for production in 2027. The company aims to enter the U.S. market with the Project V, as it is currently known, which will feature a 268-horsepower electric motor from Yamaha positioned at the rear axle. The Project V will also employ a unique split battery pack design, with a roughly 27-kWh battery located between the occupants’ legs and another beneath the rear seats. Caterham is targeting a zero-to-62-mph acceleration time of under 4.5 seconds and a starting price of around $135,000.
Ferrari Luce (Expected: 2026)
Ferrari is preparing to launch its first fully electric vehicle, which is slated to debut in early 2026. Spy shots reveal a low-riding yet crossover-like profile. Ferrari has confirmed that the vehicle will feature four doors, a wheelbase of 116.
