Ferrari Elettrica
The first electric automobile from Maranello will be shown off in the first half of 2026. However, the Italians have already shared some information about the car, including the architecture that supports it. After 20 years of development in F1 racing, the Ferrari Elettrica is the company’s first electric vehicle. It will have a completely electric engine and an 800V battery that is embedded into the floor and drives the e-axle motors. People say that the Elettrica can push more than 1,000 bhp with this.
Porsche Cayenne Electric
Porsche is putting its electric vehicle plans on hold for now, but the Stuttgart-based company is still very serious about its all-electric Cayenne, which will come out later this year. The Porsche Cayenne EV is expected to come in both SUV and Coupe-SUV versions. It will be marketed alongside its ICE-powered predecessor starting in 2026. It will be above the Macan EV. It has a unique, powerful shape and a pure-EV design, which should lead to rear- and all-wheel drive versions, as well as a high-performance Turbo model with more than 1,000 horsepower.
Volvo EX60
The all-electric Volvo EX60 SUV will be the first vehicle to be based on the Swedish brand’s new modular SPA3 design. It will be available worldwide on January 21, 2026. This is the electric version of the XC60 that is already on the market. It has the same shape and is intended to have a simple look and a strong presence on the road. It will be built on a Superset tech stack, which will be the base for all future electric Volvos. This tech stack is quite flexible and includes a collection of hardware and software parts that can be put together in many ways to make the SUV. With this modular architecture that can make automobiles of different sizes, Volvo wants to enhance its cash flow by lowering the expenses of research and development and investments.
BMW iX3
The BMW iX3 is the most significant vehicle for the Bavarian firm right now since it is the first to use the new Neue Klasse EV platform and the brand’s new design language for all future automobiles. The sixth-generation eDrive system, which uses newly designed motors that get power from high-density cylindrical cells, is introduced with the 800V architecture. The iX3 50 xDrive is the sole version that has been shown so far. It will be available for purchase in 2026 for around $60,000 (~₹52.91 lakh). It features two electric motors that deliver a total of 463 bhp and 645 Nm to all four wheels. It can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.7 seconds. According to BMW, the iX3 will get 644 km on the EPA cycle and around 800 km on the WLTP test.
Honda 0 Alpha
The Honda 0 Alpha (or Honda 0 α) will be the easiest next-gen electric vehicle for Japanese automakers to get, and it will be available in India and other countries by 2027. This is the first model of the company’s 0 Series, which also comprises the 0 Series Saloon and the 0 Series SUV. With its clean lines and broad stance, the 0 Alpha is the first car to use the “Thin, Light, and Wise” design concept. The front of the car has a futuristic look with soft edges, while the back has a U-shaped LED light bar. The glass top spreads over the interior to give it an open-air feel.
Honda believes that this vehicle will be the first to use its next-generation autonomous driving technology, which uses AI, sensors, and driver monitoring systems to make better, more human-like judgements. Honda hasn’t released any technical details yet, but they claim the SUV can charge quickly from 15% to 80% in roughly 10 to 15 minutes. The batteries can also keep more than 90% of their capacity even after being used for ten years.
