Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio EV

The high-octane Giulia Quadrifoglio sedan will be electrified in 2025, shedding its famed twin-turbo V6 for a high-output electric powertrain. Insiders suggest the Giulia EV could pack over 1000 horsepower with torque vectoring across multiple motors. An extended wheelbase wagon variant is also rumored to complement the traditional sport sedan body style.

Alfa Romeo Supercar

Before Alfa Romeo goes all-in on EVs, the storied Italian automaker will likely debut one final gas-powered sports machine. Styling cues previewed on the Montreal and 33 Stradale concepts point to a modern reinterpretation of Alfa’s 1960s classics for release in 2023. Motivation should come from a tuned version of the Giulia QV’s 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6 paired with a hybrid system driving the rear wheels.

Aston Martin Valhalla

First unveiled as AM-RB 003, the production-spec Valhalla continues technical collaboration between Aston Martin and Red Bull Advanced Technologies to conjure a Le Mans-inspired rocket for well-heeled collectors. At its core lies a specially-developed 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 pumping out nearly 1000 horses while retaining daily-driver civility thanks to plug-in hybrid assistance.

Audi A6 E-Tron

The next decade heralds an all-electric reinvention of Audi’s core lineup, starting with 2024’s A6 E-Tron luxury liftback. Built on the Premium Platform Electric underpinnings promising 700km (430mi) range between charges, the tech-laden four-door aims premium practicality through quattro all-wheel grip harnessed from dual motors outputting up to 469 electrified horsepower.

Bentley EV

As the marque eyes an electric transition by 2030, Bentley’s first series production battery-electric vehicle debuts in 2026 boasting the pinnacle of sustainability and luxury. Though mum on specifics, design inspiration stems from 2019’s EXP 100 GT concept, while the trademark “Bentley feel” hits fresh territory with instant all-electric torque rather than 12 cylinders under the elongated hood.

BMW M2 CS

For 2025, BMW M goes out with a bang by sending off the 2 Series Coupe with an exclusive M2 CS special edition before the model shifts gears to join the brand’s forthcoming fleet of electrics. Output climbs north of 500 horses from the M Division’s notorious twin-turbo straight six while an assortment of carbon fiber parts pare back the curb weight to sharpen reflexes on track or winding backroads.

BMW Neue Klasse EV

BMW adds “Neue Klasse” to its lexicon of vehicle platforms in establishing a new breed of all-electric models from 2025 onward. The cutting-edge architecture promises increased range through advanced battery density, faster charging via 800-volt infrastructure, augmented digitalization and design emphasizing sustainability and next-gen manufacturing techniques. Expect a trio of sedans and SUVs as inaugural offerings before trickling down to mainstream BMW family cars.
