Cool New Cars To Have On Your Radar
Range Rover GT
Release Date: Spring 2027
This all-electric Range Rover is a road-focused, saloon-style grand tourer. Ever since the L322 back in 2002, Range Rover has become aligned with eating up miles on the motorway in serenity and comfort. In that context, a Range Rover GT makes perfect sense. This model will feature an all-new single-screen layout, woven interiors and other new ways to minimise visual and acoustic noise in the cabin. The range should be high as this is a GT, but it’s yet to be confirmed. Meanwhile, hybrid versions are set to follow.
Price: ~£100,000

Mercedes-AMG GT SUV
Release Date: GT 53 available now; spring 2027 for GT 55 & GT 63
Your family wagon just got a whole lot more ridiculous. In true AMG style, this all-electric SUV comes with some statistics to melt your mind, from a 2.7-second 0-62mph time to 1,169hp. With an illuminated radiator grille, GT-style rear lights, red and black interiors, branded panoramic roof, and a gill-like aero body kit, it’s a car built by AMG from the ground up. Good luck if you pull up next to one of these at the lights. Mercedes currently says 280 miles of range can be added in 10 minutes, so it’s aggressive even when charging.
Price: from £113,775

Audi Nuvolari
Release Date: 2027
The Audi Concept C was revealed to the world in September 2025. Angular, robotic, grand and voluptuous all at once, it heralded a new era for Audi. Taken in tandem with the Jaguar Type 01 (see below), it seems there’s a design language beginning to emerge that may well come to define the late 2020s. While the road-going Audi C-Sport will be coming in 2027, Audi has since confirmed production of the Nuvolari, featuring a striking twin-turbo V8 hybrid with almost 1,000 bhp that does 0-62mph in 2.6 seconds. It looks wonderful. It’s a hybrid sports car. And if the clips from Goodwood are anything to go by, it’s going to sound excellent too.

Jaguar Type 01
Release Date: Orders start in early 2027
When Jaguar revealed the original Type 00 concept in December 2024, having just announced that it was stopping all production for a year, the internet broke. The move would have felt nigh-on suicidal for a car maker, even if it wasn’t also leaning into some heavily progressive messaging and veering away from its traditional customer. The Type 01 is an all-electric yacht of a car, coming in at 5.2 metres long, with an aesthetic that continues to divide, and a price tag of £129,950. Love it or loathe it, this is the future of Jaguar… if it lasts.

Tesla Roadster
Release Date: estimated 2028
It landed with an almighty bang on social feeds: a car that can drive up a ramp and onto a road upside down, then use thrusters to lower itself back down safely. It’s all very Musk. A features list that includes ‘cold gas thrusters’, a ‘multi-mode suction system’ and F1-derived ‘active aero’ confirms this is not just another new car. And indeed, Tesla’s design language kind of makes sense as a hypercar, bringing all the necessary angular theatre.

Porsche Mission S
Release Date: N/A
It was announced on the same day as the Tesla Roadster but takes a very different approach to the future. Tesla offers tech, tech and more tech. Porsche integrates tech only where it is additive to the experience. The Mission S draws from the spirit of the 1953 550 Spyder as a mid-engined supercar, but veers into modernity with its dramatic width, ‘torpedo’ body kit and roof scoop. The ‘dial’ wheels inspired by the 928 are included for lightweight design but also as a nostalgic spin of the sort that has been so successful of late (think Renault 5). Here’s hoping this one makes it beyond the pipeline.

McLaren McL 6GT
Release Date: 2028
Sadly, this car will not be made itself. It’s a concept. However, it will form the basis of a mid-engined manual V8 housed in a carbon-fibre shell that’s coming in 2028 and will be the first manual McLaren since the F1 in 1992. A fizzy prospect indeed. Also, notice the old-school supercar aesthetic. This looks like becoming one of the cleanest and most desirable McLarens of the modern era.

Citroën 2CV
Release Date: 2028
At the Paris Motor Show in 2026, Citroën revealed that a nostalgic, cheeky and particularly French icon, the 2CV, was up for reinvention. Despite being a concept, there are very strong odds that this car, or something extremely similar, will come to fruition before the end of 2028. With a jaw-droppingly low starting price, this could easily become the dominant electric city runaround. It exudes joie de vivre with its bright orange tone and approachable headlights, fold-back roof and semi-circular body. Plus, its lightness will be great for battery economy.
Price: from £13,000
