Enthusiasm and demand for electric cars may have cooled recently, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a strong lineup of new EVs arriving next year. Crossovers still dominate the market, of course, yet 2026 will also see the debut—and in one Chevy’s case, the return—of some genuinely affordable options.
Expect new compact crossovers from BMW and Mercedes-Benz, two high-performance models from Korea, fresh electric takes on existing nameplates with varying degrees of heresy, and the first EV from the world’s most iconic supercar maker.
Every vehicle on this list has been confirmed or, at minimum, officially expected to be revealed or go on sale next year. No "maybe" or "someday" models like the next-gen Toyota Corolla, Jaguar's Type 00, Bentley’s future Urban SUV, or Genesis’s G-Wagen-rivaling GV90.
