Kia continues to expand its range of electric vehicles: in China, as part of the Kia EV Day event, the premiere of the EV5 concept crossover, which will go into production this year, and other electric novelties were announced.

It is known that the popular model of the Italian company will “turn green” towards the end of the current decade and become the second “train” in the brand line. Lamborghini is part of the actively “greening” German concern Volkswagen, but, despite this, is in no hurry to follow the same path.

A total of 16 new vehicles will be introduced in the next five years. Mitsubishi has announced a new mid-term plan that will accelerate its decarbonization efforts. Dubbed "Challenge 2025," it puts an emphasis on hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and purely electric vehicles by ramping up development. Out of a total of 16 new cars coming out in the next five years, nine of them will be electrified, either partially or entirely.

In terms of exterior design, the commercial three-row SUV has adopted a lot from the concept of the same name. The new model will make a full-fledged premiere at the end of March.

VW goes so far as to call it a second generation, but this is a mild facelift even for the brand's conservative standards. Two and a half years after the launch of the Volkswagen ID.3, the automaker has unveiled the facelifted variant of the model that inaugurated its ID family of EVs.

It will likely be based on the Fiat e-Ducato. With 60,936 and 5,137 deliveries in the United States and Canada respectively, 2022 was the Ram ProMaster’s second best-selling year in history. For the 2023 model year, the light commercial van received a fresh new face and a super high roof option, and even more important changes are planned for the 2024 ProMaster. Ram now confirms it will soon release a fully-electric version of the ProMaster.

But the price increased too and there is no federal fax credit. The Audi e-tron quattro and e-tron Sportback quattro were the two first all-electric Audi models on the market in the United State. Let's take a look at the latest 2023 model year edition.

Without the $7,500 federal tax credit, even the new entry-level version will not stop effective price increases. BMW expanded its i4 lineup in the United States with a new entry-level i4 eDrive35 version, which joined the existing i4 eDrive40 and sporty i4 M50.

It will be the first-ever Genesis model to be assembled in the US. Genesis has announced the pricing and packaging for one of its all-electric vehicles in the US, the 2023 Electrified GV70. It will be the first-ever Genesis model to be assembled stateside. The Electrified GV70 starts at $65,850 for the Advanced AWD model and $72,650 for the Prestige AWD model.

Initially a one-off prototype, Mini will build 999 electric convertibles starting in April. This might be a good time to mention the idiom never say never. That's because the car featured here wasn't supposed to exist beyond a single prototype, but Mini says "positive feedback" was simply too great to ignore. As such, say hello to the 2023 Mini Cooper SE Convertible in its roofless, all-electric glory, arriving later this year in limited numbers for European markets.

The GMC Sierra EV will have 400 miles of range, onboard power, and much more to compete with Ford and Rivian. The GMC Sierra EV follows the Hummer EV as the truck division’s second battery-powered pickup. But whereas the Hummer is more of a high-priced plaything, the GMC Sierra EV – while still pricey in its own right – will be a more conventional choice for electric truck buyers.

The Ram 1500 REV will enter production next year and arrive in dealerships in late 2024. Following the world debut of the 1500 Revolution BEV Concept at CES 2023 last month, Ram Trucks has surprised everyone with the unveiling of its production electric pickup, the 1500 REV, in a Super Bowl commercial.

GMC is also considering selling the Hummer EV in China. The lines at GM's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly plant – better known these days as Factory Zero – are alive with the sounds of GMC Hummer EV SUVs coming together. January 30 marks the start of production for the long-awaited luxury off-roader.

Only 500 will be produced at $138,500 a pop. Vanwall most likely isn’t a name you are familiar with. Back in the 1950s, it was established by Tony Vandervell and Colin Chapman as one of the most successful teams in Formula 1 with Stirling Moss, Maurice Trintignant, and others behind the wheel. That company is now being revived with a motorsport division working on an FIA WEC entry, as well as an automaker that debuts its first production model. What you see in the gallery below isn’t the long-awaited Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, but the new Vanwall Vandervell.

Chevy claims the E-Ray hits 60 mph in 2.5 seconds and covers the quarter-mile in 10.5 seconds.

The American brand Buick continues to expand its model line for China, photos and some technical data of the Electra E4 coupe crossover built on the Ultium modular platform have surfaced in the database of the local Ministry of Industry.

The waitlist opens for the second production vehicle of the company that brought us a taste of solar-powered EVs. Introducing its first solar-powered EV earlier this year, the Lightyear 0, Dutch company Lightyear is now on to its second model. Aptly named the Lightyear 2, the sophomore take on the self-charging EV has been teased at this year's CES. More importantly, the waitlist has been opened by the company prior to the model's arrival in the next few years.

The world’s largest plug-in vehicle manufacturer goes up-market with the new YangWang U8 off-roader and U9 supercar.

In the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept revealed Thursday at CES, Stellantis’ truck brand showed how it plans to deliver an electric pickup in 2024. Put simply, it plans to carry on the competition that it’s waged against the Ford F-150 family, plus Chevy, GMC, and Toyota full-size trucks, translated into a new era of fully electric trucks.

The seemingly forgotten Swiss electromobility startup nanoFlowcell once again reminded of itself: an updated version of the Quantino compact electric car was presented, the opening of a branch in the United States was announced in order to localize the production of electric vehicles and "fuel" for them.
