These electric vehicles aren't available for purchase yet, but they're in various stages of development, from concept to production. Perhaps a few may never see the light of day. Electric cars are the future, and each year, we've seen automakers add more EVs to their lineups. Everyone is working on electric vehicles, from well-established existing manufacturers to new names such as Lucid, Rivian, and Fisker. We've compiled a list of every electric vehicle, from concept to production, that isn't available yet but will be soon.

Alfa Romeo has confirmed the gas-powered Giulia will be revamped in the coming years with an electric powertrain. We expect the base version will make around 350 horsepower, while the high-performance version will produce closer to 800 horsepower. The top-of-the-line Giulia will continue to carry the historic Quadrifoglio name and should make upward of 1000 horsepower. The new Giulia will be produced on the Stellantis Group's STLA Large platform, with 800-volt, ultra-rapid charging and a range of up to 500 miles. Recent rumors suggest the Giulia, like the Dodge Charger, will also be offered with combustion engines.

Before the next-generation Giulia arrives, Alfa Romeo will launch a new Stelvio. Like Alfa's upcoming sedan, the Stelvio will ride on the STLA Large platform and come with both electric and hybrid powertrains. The electric SUV has been delayed, however, and isn't likely to arrive in the United States until 2027.

Alpine, the French subsidiary of Renault known for lightweight sports cars, plans to enter the U.S. market later this decade. The charge was originally set to be spearheaded by the compact A390, a slinky fastback crossover with a 470-hp tri-motor powertrain, but the plans have changed. The U.S. launch of Alpine’s EVs was originally set for 2027, but the introduction of high tariffs on imported cars by the Trump administration has caused Alpine to delay its plans. If Alpine does enter the U.S. market, the company now says it will do so with the upcoming A110 electric sports car and a larger SUV.

Audi plans to launch a new electric sports car in 2027, previewed by the radical Concept C. Audi says the new sports car, which is roughly the same length as a Porsche 911, will sit somewhere between the TT and R8 in terms of performance and will usher in a new design language. Inside, the Concept C shows Audi embracing a return to physical controls, and the concept even features a screen that can completely tuck away when not in use. Details on the powertrain remain sparse, but the Concept C was designed as rear-wheel drive, and we expect it to share a platform with the upcoming Porsche 718 EV. Audi has confirmed that the production car will also offer a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive variant as well, and the RWD concept is said to weigh 3726 pounds.

Bentley's first EV will be revealed in 2026, and the luxury automaker is calling it a "luxury urban SUV" that will slot below the gas-powered Bentayga in the luxury automaker's lineup. Although Bentley calls the EV "compact," the new model will still carry imposing proportions, measuring up to 197 inches long. A concept car called the EXP 15 previews the Bentley EV's styling, with a bold, squared-off front end, a long hood, and a decadent cabin. The electric SUV may use the same platform as the upcoming Porsche Cayenne EV, and sales of the Bentley EV should kick off in early 2027. Based on trademark filings, we think it will be called the Barnato, after one of Bentley's racers and executives from the 1920s. Plans for additional Bentley EVs have been pushed back until at least 2030.

The BMW i3 arrives as an electric sibling to the long-running BMW 3-Series, wearing BMW's new design language and riding on the same Neue Klasse platform that supports the iX3 SUV. An 800-volt architecture allows for 400-kW fast-charging, while the 109-kWh battery is said to provide an estimated 440 miles of range. The i3 will launch with one trim, the 50 xDrive, to start, sending 463 hp and 476 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels.
