Electric Vehicles

I've never been one to shy away from trying something new, even if it's dangerous, scary, intimidating, daunting, and all the other adjectives that would make most people go "Oh, heck no!" Electric unicycle? Challenge accepted.

Toyota's first real swing at a mainstream battery-electric vehicle, in the awkwardly named bZ4X, felt like it had been designed by committee. Did a name change improve things?

It seems we’re living in an age of revival. Revival of old brands, motorcycles, and scooters. Now, with the Fiat Multiplina, we have the revival of the very cool bubble cars that saw peak popularity somewhere in the middle of the last century.

Alpine offered a first look at its new high-performance electric sports car at the 2026 Goodwood Festival of Speed last weekend – all thanks to a pioneering new process for developing a new car platform.

When the X5 was first introduced in 1999, it was unclear if it would go on to be a success like BMW’s coupes and sedans. Today, it's one of the company’s bestsellers. Now, the 2027 X5 is here, and it comes with a lot of firsts ... including an EV trim.

McMurtry Automotive has debuted the production version of its record-breaking, single-seat electric super track concept. Dubbed the Spéirling Pure, the car delivers near-F1-level performance thanks to its four-figure horsepower.

French clothing brand Lacoste has teamed up with carmaker Alpine for a one-off electric rally car. Called 'Beware of the Crocodile,' of course, it’s got crocs all over it and an interior that feels like you're inside a crocodile's mouth.

Bentley is at last expanding its lineup of luxury vehicles with its first EV – the Torcal. We only have the name and a glimpse of its rear end for now, and we'll get a proper look at it this September.

Honda’s Super-N has been launched in Europe, with pricing starting from £18,995 (around US$25k). Other than being positioned as an affordable, "fun" alternative in the small EV class, this might just turn out to be a turning point for Honda.

The Amble One is a street-legal EV that looks like a pensioned VW Schwimmwagen after moving to a 5-star resort and discovering cork upholstery. No, it doesn't float. But I still want one.

Faraday Future has had an awfully rough go of building an electric car brand. It's now shifting gears to wade into the world of robotics and physical AI – and it has a heap of robots on offer, including a multipurpose $90,000 humanoid.

The tiniest mini-pickup the US market has seen in decades is on its way. Slate's delightfully compact, customizable e-truck was originally aimed to start under $20K. It'll cost a little more but will still be the cheapest new truck in the US.
