Future Cars, SUVs Worth Waiting For: 2023-2026

The automotive landscape is changing. Over the next few years, there will be a huge transition to hybrid and fully electric vehicles as automakers make the switch – some completely – to battery power. Buyers will soon be able to buy an EV in virtually any segment, even supercars and hypercars. 

But it's not all doom and gloom for gas lovers. Brands like Aston Martin, Chevy, and Lamborghini plan to keep the gas engine alive for at least a little bit longer with sporty new offerings on the horizon. With that, we've put together a list of 50 cars, trucks, and SUVs that should be on the market by the end of 2026 – gas, hybrid, and electric alike.

Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio EV

Release Date: 2025

Alfa Romeo is one of many brands making the move to battery power in the form of both plug-in hybrids and full EVs. Its iconic Giulia sedan will make the switch from gas to electrons sometime in the near future with rumors hinting at upwards of 1,000 horsepower from the electric Giulia with the possibility for more body styles – like a wagon variant – joining the range down the line.

Alfa Romeo Supercar

Release Date: 2026

Another upcoming Alfa is the rumored sports car or supercar – although this one should arrive before the electric Giulia, and potentially with gas power alone. Early rumors suggested that the proposed Alfa sports car would use some form of plug-in-hybrid power, but the latest reports hint that this could be the brand’s last "old-school" coupe. We know it will have retro design cues (like our rendering pictured here) and should arrive before the end of the year.

Aston Martin Valhalla

Release Date: 2024

The mid-engined Valhalla will be the next supercar in the Aston Martin lineup. Expected early in 2024, the Aston Martin Valhalla will reportedly have a flat-plane-crank V8 engine and could have north of 900 hp with an expected 0-60 time of around three seconds flat.

Audi A6 E-Tron

Release Date: 2024

We’ve already seen the Audi A6 E-Tron in concept form (the image pictured here), but the production version should debut sometime later next year before going on sale. With Audi's scalable Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture underneath, the A6 E-Tron will have 800-volt charging capabilities and offer up to 400 miles of range. The most powerful version could also pack 469 hp via two electric motors

Bentley EV

Release Date: 2026

The future of Bentley is electric as the company commits to a full battery-powered lineup from 2026 on. The first of its EVs doesn’t come with many details, but we can at least look to the EXP 100 GT concept from 2019 for design inspiration.
