There's never been a better time to think about going electric, and it looks very much like 2026 is going to be a bumper year for new EVs arriving on the market. Here’s a list of every car we know about – including some we've already driven – all the way from Alfa to Volvo.
Alfa Romeo
Giulia
Price: £60,000 / Range: 500 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
The current Giulia’s been on sale for 10 years, so we’re definitely overdue a new one. The new saloon will feature an electric version for the first time – all part of Alfa’s Stellantis backed renaissance
Stelvio
Price: £65,000 / Range: 400 miles / On sale: Early 2026
Alfa’s flagship SUV is another ageing warhorse due an all-new model in 2026. Underbits will be shared with Jeep’s Wagoneer and the new Stelvio should manage up to around 400 miles of range
Alpine
A110 electric
Price: £65,000 / Range: 370 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Alpine hinted at an electric A110 ages ago with the E-ternité concept, but it’s been an e-ternité and we’ve had to wait for the all-new model. Alpine reckons this will drive better than the new electric Porsche Cayman
Audi
Q9
Price: £100,000 (est) / Range: 400 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
Is the Q7 a bit small for you? Audi’s range-topping new Q9 seven-seater will be the *ahem* practical option among the company’s ginormous SUV options. Expect prices to sail past £100k though
A3 e-tron
Price: £40,000 / Range: 350 miles / On sale: Late 2026
This is the new Audi we know least about – its entry level electric crossover has been spotted testing, and will be revealed at some point in 2026, possibly with some revived A3 e-tron badging
Bentley
‘Luxury urban SUV’
Price: £150,000 (est) / Range: 375 miles / On sale: Late 2026
We’ve only seen it under a sheet so far, but Bentley’s new ‘baby’ SUV will still be huge at five metres long and shares its electric undercarriage with the new Porsche Cayenne Electric, so it should be good
BMW
iX3
Price: £59,000 / Range: 500 miles / On sale: Early 2026
The new iX3 is supposed to be a game changer for the whole BMW brand, and we really like what we’ve seen of the electric SUV so far. Most important car of the year? Ginny certainly thinks so…
Read our BMW iX3 first look here
i3
Price: £45,000 / Range: 500 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
A new 3-Series is a big deal, this is a bread and butter model for BMW and for the first time it comes with a bit of electric-flavoured spread. That metaphor didn’t work, but the Neue Klass-inspired 3 should quite well. Not to be confused with the smaller, cooler, older i3
M3
Price: £100,000 / Range: 360 miles / On sale: Late 2026
The new electric version of the 3-Series will get a scorching M-badged version too. Fun to drive performance electric cars are few and far between, but if anyone can make it work, BMW can.
Cupra
Raval
Price: £25,000 / Range: 270 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
There’s a lot to like about the Raval – it’s got all the personality that will be missing from the Volkswagen ID.Cross but it’ll be nicely put together and offer plenty of range.
Dacia
Spring
Price: £15,000 / Range: 140 miles / On sale: Early 2026
Dacia’s likeable runabout has had some tweaks for 2026, with more power and improved battery tech but still with the low, low prices. The Spring is absolutely perfect for some light touch commuting

Denza
Z9 GT
Price: £75,000 / Range: 400 miles / On sale: Late 2026
BYD’s new posh sub-brand arrives with a fancy four-door saloon that looks sleek and will come with a PHEV or full electric option. If you like tech you’ll love showing this off to your friends
Ferrari
Elettrica
Price: £450,000 / Range: 330 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Ferrari’s first EV will be controversial, and we've only seen the batteries so far. The crossover-style sporty SUV shuns a V12 in favour of four e-motors pumping out over 1,000bhp. It won’t be cheap to juice up with a 122kWh battery, or buy with a rumoured £450k price
Genesis
GV90
Price: £100,000 / Range: 350 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Genesis is looking to top out its range in 2026 with a sleek looking new six-seat SUV that will offer around 400 miles of range and go head to head with the likes of the new electric Range Rover and BMW X7
GV60 Magma
Price: £100,000 / Range: 250 miles / On sale: Early 2026
Hyundai’s posh sub-brand has developed itself a racy orange “alter ego”, and the GV60 will be the first Magma-badged car we see. Expect fast bits shared with the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N and a crazy price
Honda
0 SUV
Price: £45,000 / Range: 300 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Honda promised it was taking the EV back to 0 with this SUV concept that’s going into production in 2026. That’s car speak for starting from scratch, but we’re promised exciting tech to match the exciting looks
0 Saloon
Price: £60,000 / Range: 300 miles / On sale: Late 2026
The second of Honda’s reset launches in 2026. Does the concept car look like a portable car vacuum? Sure, but nothing else on the market does, and that’s what will set the four door 0 Saloon apart.
Hyundai
Ioniq 3
Price: From £33,000 / Range: 380 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
The new Ioniq 3 is as good looking as we’ve come to expect from recent Hyundais. It looks like the old Veloster, but hopefully it’ll sell more. This will be Hyundai’s most accessible EV yet…
Read our first look at the new Ioniq 3 here
Ioniq 6 N
Price: From £70,000 / Range: 291 miles / On sale: Early 2026
The fast 5 was an absolute riot, now the Ioniq 6 saloon gets the bonkers N treatment. We like the refreshed look of the 6, and N has given it a thorough going over – 0–62mph in 3.2 seconds!
Take a look at our Ioniq 6 N preview
Jaguar
Type 00
Price: From £100,000 / Range: 478 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Is there a car that people will be looking forward to seeing more than this one? It’s the concept that broke the internet, but more than TikTok viewers Jaguar needs its customers to like the Porsche Taycan rivalling electric four-door saloon
See what our Ginny thought of the Jaguar Type 00 concept
Kia
EV2
Price: £25,000 / Range: 270 miles / On sale: Early 2026
We’ve only seen the EV2 in concept form so far, but we’re loving it so far. The small electric hatchback will take Kia’s proven engineering and wrap it in a teeny but practical and fun body. What’s not to like?
Read our first look of Kia's EV2 concept car
PV5 WAV
Price: £38,000 (est) / Range: 250 miles / On sale: Late 2026
It’s not a car that anyone will be putting on their bedroom wall as a poster, but this is exactly the sort of thing that carmakers should be building – Kia’s launching a wheelchair accessible version of its PV5 off the assembly line
Take a look at our Kia PV5 review
Land Rover
Range Rover Electric
Price: £130,000 / Range: 350 miles / On sale: Early 2026
It’s a big year for Land Rover as well as its sister brand Jaguar. The Range Rover is an icon, and those aren’t easy to refresh, but the signs look good for the wafty monster – that range might lag behind rivals though
Check out our electric Range Rover prototype drive
Range Rover Sport Electric
Price: £100,000 / Range: 350 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
The Sport will share its foundations with the electric Range Rover, but will carry less weight in its sleeker body. These Range Rover EVs will still need to do the business off-road though, will be interesting to drive
Range Rover Velar
Price: £75,000 / Range: 300 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Rumours suggest that the next-generation Velar might be a bit of a surprise compared with what’s gone before – more road focused and more upmarket. But not enough to step on Jaguar’s toes, you hope
Range Rover Evoque
Price: £50,000 / Range: 275 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Range Rover’s 2026 model storm finishes with the Evoque – probably as important a car as the electric Range Rover, because this baby SUV is the one that everyone will actually be buying
Leapmotor
B05
Price: £28,000 / Range: 260 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Now it gets interesting at Leapmotor – the B05 will be a competitively priced Astra-sized electric hatchback with a techy interior. A sensible purchase, but a car that’ll have a few rivals quaking in their boots
Lexus
ES
Price: £50,000 / Range: 426 miles / On sale: Early 2026
Yes, it’s still going, eight generations in now, but electric for the first time. This posh saloon will go up against the likes of BMW’s i4 or the Polestar 2, but armed with one Lexus’s signature soothing interiors
LEVC
L380
Price: £75,000 / Range: 329 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Not content with the black cab market, LEVC is gunning for the private hire one too – could this swanky people carrier be taking you to the airport for your summer holiday in 2026? Will be on sale to civilians too
Mercedes-AMG
GT XX
Price: £200,000 / Range: 400 miles / On sale: Late 2026
We’ve seen the concept version of Merc-AMG’s GT replacement, but it’ll look different when it goes on sale. The Polestar 5 rival will still be very fast and very high-tech though. And very expensive
Nissan
Juke EV
Price: £20,000 / Range: 160 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Nissan’s entry EV will be city focused and share some of its parts with the new Renault Twingo and next-generation Dacia Spring – but more spacious than the former and a bit more fancy than the latter
Omoda
4
Price: £30,000 / Range: 250 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Omoda’s small SUV (think Ford Puma/Hyundai Kona size) looks incredible with its angular design, and will get a suitably tech-stuffed interior (with giant touchscreen, naturally) to match
Porsche
Cayenne Electric
Price: £90,000 / Range: 373 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
We’ve already driven a prototype version of the Cayenne Electric and it was very accomplished despite not being finished. Looks like the Range Rover EV will have a fight on its hands in 2026
Read our prototype drive of the electric Cayenne
Boxster Electric
Price: £80,000 / Range: 325 miles / On sale: Late 2026
We’ve been waiting ages for the new electric Boxster, and it doesn’t look like it’s in a hurry to go on sale. Hopefully it’ll be quicker to drive – and fun, too. Porsche has certainly had enough time
Renault
Twingo
Price: £17,000 / Range: 163 miles / On sale: Late 2026
We’ve had a good glimpse of the retro new Twingo and we like what we’ve seen so far – still a bit of a wait until it actually goes on sale though. We’re not sure if we’re patient enough to wait that long…
Check out our first look at the Renault Twingo here
Rivian
R2
Price: £40,000 / Range: 300 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Rivian's R2 SUV does look massive to us, but it’s basically a supermini in the USA where it was designed and will be built. With its cartoonish looks it’ll certainly be a fun thing to drive about it on UK roads
Skoda
Epiq
Price: £25,000 / Range: 250 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Despite the silly spelling of its name, the new Epiq small SUV will be an eminently sensible purchase, with all of the nice little touches that Skoda likes to throw in. Perfect for first time EV purchasers, we reckon
Eviatiq
Price: £65,000 / Range: 400 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Sorry Epiq, there’s a Skoda with an even sillier (rumoured) name. What we do know is that Skoda is planning on bringing a ginormous seven-seat electric SUV to showrooms and people will probably love it
Smart
#6
Price: £50,000 / Range: 400 miles / On sale: Early 2026
Smart’s getting a flagship model that will take it dangerously close to the territory of some very fancy badges, but we’re intrigued to see how this swoopy four-door saloon turns out
#2
Price: £25,000 / Range: 200 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Smart’s finally going back to its roots in 2026, with a teeny two-seat electric city car that just might recapture the glory days of the Fortwo. Even if it’s bad it’s better than walking, to be fair
Toyota
Hilux
Price: £50,000 / Range: 250 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
Gasp – Toyota’s launching an electric version of its Hilux pickup. Not too many electric pickups available on the UK market, but if anyone can nail the format it’ll be Toyota. 'Purists' can still buy boring combustion versions
Land Cruiser EV
Price: £90,000 / Range: 300 miles / On sale: Late 2026
Probably aimed more at Fulham than a UN peacekeeping zone, the new electric version of the Land Cruiser will be sold alongside the more rugged petrol and diesel versions – everyone’s happy
Volkswagen
ID.Polo
Price: £22,000 / Range: 280 miles / On sale: Early 2026
Another iconic nameplate goes electric – the Polo (formerly known as the ID.2) will be as sensible and easy to live with as its petrol forebears. Hot hatch enthusiasts will be looking forward to the GTI version that’s planned to arrive in 2027
ID.Cross
Price: £25,000 / Range: 260 miles / On sale: Mid 2026
The jacked up family oriented crossover version of the Polo will look distinct from its hatchback sibling, with a look that borrows from some of the larger SUVs in the Volkswagen range
Volvo
EX60
Price: £60,000 / Range: 400 miles / On sale: Late 2026
We’re strangely looking forward to the launch of this electric version of the XC60 SUV. Some of the cars in our list we've already had a glimpse of – sadly we won’t get a proper look at the EX60 until January, but it’s something to look forward to after Christmas.
Carmakers love to tease us with glimpses of their new metal – we can't wait to see this new Volvo for realsies
