Audi A6 E-Tron Sedan
Expected in 2023
At Auto Shanghai 2021, Audi showed off a concept of the A6 E-Tron, which will go into production at the end of 2022. However, Audi has stated that the A6 E-Tron will be the first vehicle built on a new modular electric platform created with Porsche that would underlie a wide range of sedans and SUVs. (The Volkswagen Group owns both Porsche and Audi.) There are two motors powering the all-wheel-drive system, totaling 469 horsepower; Audi claims the concept's range might surpass 400 miles.
Cadillac Celestiq Sedan
Expected in Year 2023
Cadillac says the Celestiq, now simply a show car concept with scant specifications, will go into production and be hand crafted in small numbers as the brand's flagship sedan. This car on our all-electric model lineup will have a very high-end look, feel, technology, customization, and price. So far, we know that the vehicle has all-wheel drive and four-wheel steering, and that there is a new smart-glass roof that allows each passenger to select their own overhead lighting.
Canoo Pickup
Expected in 2024
The Canoo pickup is a two-seat tiny truck with a bed length of 6 feet and an innovative extension that can increase its length to 8 feet. This one of the future electric cars 2025 is 184 inches shorter than a mid-size pickup. The vehicle is expected to have a range of over 200 miles, a payload capability of 1,800 pounds, and rear- or all-wheel drive. Storage is plentiful, and the bed's side rails fold down to offer desk space. The company's co-founder and CEO has lately been replaced, and the new business plan plans for manufacturing to take place at a facility in Oklahoma.

Chevrolet Silverado EV Pickup
Expected in 2023
In spite of the lack of information, Chevrolet has announced that an electric version of their Silverado full-size truck is in the works. Chevrolet claims it will be produced in the same Michigan factory as the Hummer EV (GM owns both Chevrolet and GMC), and that it will have a range of 400 miles or more on a modified version of the company's Ultium platform. Chevrolet said that both the consumer and commercial models will provide "a choice of options."
GMC Electric Pickup
Expected in 2023
GMC has revealed a second electric pickup, following Chevrolet's lead in confirming an all-electric Silverado. The next Hummer EV will be the brand's halo truck. No information was provided, not even whether or not GMC will name the truck Sierra, despite sharing a platform with the Silverado. Even though the EV will have the same underpinnings and battery technology as the Hummer and Silverado, it is projected to be more conventional and affordable than the Hummer.
Honda's Prologue SUV
Expected in 2024
This affordable electric SUV from Honda is set to hit the market sometime in early 2024. The only information provided is that the Prologue is being developed in tandem with GM as part of an electric vehicle cooperation, and that GM's Ultium batteries would be used in production. "Our first volume Honda BEV will begin our transition to electrification and the moniker Honda Prologue symbolises the role it will play in leading to our zero-emission future," Honda of the USA senior vice president Dave Gardner stated.
Jeep Grand Wagoneer Electric SUV
Expected to Release in 2025
In addition to the plug-in hybrids it is now releasing, Jeep declared in July that it will have a zero-emissions car available in "every SUV category" by 2025. While Jeep did display the Wrangler Magneto EV prototype back in the spring, the only zero-emissions EV it has vowed to deliver by 2025 is an electric version of its upcoming Grand Wagoneer flagship.
Lexus EV SUV
Forecasted for 2025
To make up for its late arrival to the electric vehicle (EV) party, Lexus said in March that it will move up its goal of having electric versions of all of its models available by 2025. Lexus introduced the LF-Z Electrified, a small SUV it labelled "a BEV concept car embodying the next generation of Lexus." No first product was announced, but it's a good bet that Lexus will release an electric vehicle in the popular premium compact SUV segment.
Lexus claims the concept car rides a new electric chassis and integrates a new "Direct4" four-wheel-drive system, although it's unclear how much of the show car's technology and features will make it into a production vehicle.
G-Class Mercedes-Benz Electric SUV
Forecasted for 2024
Mercedes announced the release of an electric G-Class SUV in 2024 during a livestream presentation of the company's electrification ambitions, however few specifics were given.
New Electric Porsche Macan SUV
Porsche director Michael Steiner has stated that the forthcoming Macan EV "will be the sportiest car in its class." Like the existing Taycan electric car, the all-electric Macan will ride on a new, premium modular electric platform with 800-volt architecture. However, in order to compete with longer-range rivals like the Tesla Model Y, it is projected to deliver more than the Taycan's 227-mile range. Porsche claims the two versions of the Macan will be offered side by side, so we can expect an interior and exterior design that are identical to the recently revised gasoline version.
Ram Pickup
Expected: 2024
Ram, a division of Stellantis, revealed plans to release an electric version of its full-size Ram 1500 pickup in 2024 during a day of presentations focused on electrification. Other information was not given.
