Alfa Romeo 'Momentous Comeback'
Alfa Romeo is keeping quiet about its so-called, "momentous comeback." But while the jury is still out on exactly what the Italian automaker planned to show in Geneva, reports hint at a high-performance coupe. Don't expect the 8C or GTV nameplates to return (yet), but instead, look for a coupe called the GTA (or Gran Turismo Alleggerita). And it could have as much as 620 horsepower.
Bentley Continental GT Mulliner Convertible
Thought the Bentley Continental GT Convertible couldn’t get any more opulent? Try again. With help from Mulliner, the Conti gets a new diamond-shaped grille mesh, unique 22-inch wheels, and up to 61 exterior colors to choose from. Inside, diamond-quilted leather covers the seats, door panels, and tonneau cover, evoking the same unique shape of the upgraded grille. This posh convertible doesn’t have a price yet, but the standard Continental GT Convertible costs $236,100 – so, expect this one to cost a lot more.
BMW Concept i4
Eventually, BMW will build its electric i4. We think. The production version won't be in Geneva, unfortunately, but crowds might have been able to catch a glimpse of a concept that's closer to road-ready than any other examples before it. BMW teases the new, near-production concept in a video here. When the production version does show up in 2021, the BMW i4 should have a hearty 523 horsepower and the ability to travel up to 373 miles on a single charge.
Bugatti Chiron Sport Edition Noire Sportive
The very first Chiron showed up at the Geneva Motor Show 2016 – so, Bugatti and Geneva have a bit of history. But with this year's show cancelled, the company will celebrate the halfway point of Chiron production outside of Geneva with an extremely limited Chiron Sport Edition Noire Sportive; it's the 250th Chiron ever built, costs $3.3 million, and limited to just 20 examples.
Cupra Formentor
If the name "Formentor" doesn’t excite you, maybe the Cupra crossover’s 242 horsepower from a turbocharged 1.4-liter engine will. We don’t know much about the high-performance SUV (based on the Seat Leon) outside of that, but it should go on sale later this year following its debut next week.
Czinger 21C
Hailing from Los Angeles, California, upstart Czinger (pronounced "Zinger") showed the world its new 21C hypercar last week. Powered by a "proprietary hybrid powertrain," the hypercar allegedly produces 1,233 horsepower and can sprint to 62 miles per hour in a mind-boggling 1.9 seconds.
Dacia Electric Concept
Dacia (yes, that Dacia) will debut its first electric vehicle. A city car promising to be the "most accessible… on the market" should undercut European alternatives like the Volkswagen e-up!, SEAT Mii Electric, and the Skoda Citigoᵉ iV when the production version goes on sale in 2021. Final details like range and price, though, remain unknown.
DS Aero Sport Lounge
Though a concept currently, the wild-looking, fully electric DS Aero Sport Lounge crossover would have made its debut in Geneva. With a whopping 671 horsepower on tap, the concept can allegedly sprint to 62 miles per hour in just 2.8 seconds – that's supercar territory – and offers as much as 404 miles of range per charge. But, we don't expect a production version (if and when it happens) to look as angular.
Hyundai i20
Hyundai had two new pint-sized hatchbacks destined for Geneva, the first being the updated i20 European supermini. The i20, when it hits European dealerships later this year, will be a pioneer for Hyundai's sharp new design language and should come powered by a turbocharged 1.0-liter engine.
Hyundai i30
This is the larger Hyundai i30 hatch that should have debuted in Geneva next week. With it, the handsome hatch brings a base turbocharged 1.0-liter three-cylinder rated at 118 horsepower and 127 pound-feet of torque, as well as a sporty N Line treatment.
Hyundai Prophecy EV
The i20 and i30 weren't the only two cars Hyundai had planned for Geneva, though. The company also promised an electric vehicle dubbed the Prophecy, meant to preview the brand’s new "sensuous sportiness" design language. Though details like power and range remain unknown.
Kia Sorento
The Kia Sorento has a new look for 2021. The corporate "Tiger Nose" grille makes its way onto the new Sorento, as does a new 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster as well as a 10.3-inch touchscreen inside. The company should release final powertrain details when the new Sorento debuts in person, whenever that may be.
Mercedes-Benz E-Class
Don’t expect a major makeover for the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but the luxury vehicle is getting a new look, some added safety tech, and even a plug-in-hybrid option when it debuts next week. Joining the updated E-Class will be three new AMG models, the identities of which are unknown.
Morgan Plus 4
Though unconfirmed, we're pretty sure this is the new Morgan Plus 4 packing a four-cylinder engine. The company sent out a single teaser image showing the vehicle under a sheet with details like, "a four-cylinder engine and optional manual transmission." We'll know more when it debuts in full.
Pagani Huayra Imola
What would have been one of the most expensive cars on-stage in Geneva, the Pagani Huayra Imola costs a whopping $5.41 million. Packing twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 good for 827 horsepower and 811 pound-feet of torque, Pagani will produce just five examples of the Huayra Imola… and all of them already have homes.
Polestar Precept Concept
Polestar previewed a new design language with the help of the stunning Precent concept. With a so-called "SmartZone" transparent panel at the front, a new take on Volvo's signature "Hammer Of Thor" headlights, and unique wheels, the Precept definitely look different than the Polestar 1 and Polestar 2. But, don't expect a production version.
Rimac C_Two
The first Rimac C_Two prototype debuted nearly a year ago. But the company promises "everything has changed" when it comes to the production version. The road-going Rimac C_Two will likely debut next week outside of Geneva, and when it does, it should have the same $2.1-million price tag.
Toyota Small Crossover
Toyota won’t tell us the name of its new small crossover yet, but it was destined for Geneva. Now we're unsure when we'll see it. Dubbed a "B-SUV," the tiny Toyota "blends extensive small car experience with enviable SUV heritage," the company says in its press release. Assuming it shares its same TNGA-B platform with the European Yaris, it should have a similar 1.5-liter gasoline-electric hybrid powertrain. Though, the high-riding model should have distinct styling.
Volkswagen Golf GTD / GTE / GTI
The new Volkswagen GTI arrives for 2021 with 245 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque on tap – and it brings some friends. Joining the lineup for 2021 is the VW Golf GTD, a diesel-powered hot hatch with 197 hp. The GTE, meanwhile, gets a 1.4-liter engine with 147 horsepower, but the addition of a battery pack brings that figure to 241 hp.
Volkswagen Touareg R
The Volkswagen Touareg R would have joined the GTD, GTE, and GTI on stage in Geneva. The plug-in-hybrid SUV packs up to 456 horsepower courtesy of a 3.0-liter V6 gasoline engine aided by an electric motor. The VW Touareg R can sprint to 60 miles per hour in five seconds flat.
