Ford will be introducing another EV in Europe this summer, likely using the same powertrains as the Explorer EV. They're calling it a Coupe SUV but the rear 3/4 design makes it look like a lifted Polestar sedan.
- Range is expected to be ~ 300 miles.
- Debuting July 10
- Based on VW's MEB...
:crackup: I for one like Kyle, as detailed as he is. Thankful he finally added chapter breaks on his videos.
- It's the first Mach E that he's truly enjoyed driving and would consider owning..."rips in the dirt, hilariously fun"
Caught testing today; will likely ride on a new platform. Thought to accommodate a 3rd row although it would be awfully tight.

- The EV formerly known as the Ioniq 7 has been renamed to the Ioniq 9. Makes sense in light of the Kia EV9's nomenclature.
- Debuting in South Korea in June 2024.
- Let's hope they fixed the 12V draining issues from the EV9.
Guess we're not getting a Level 3 system from mainstream domestic auto manufacturers anytime soon.

- NEW $3k in Retail Bonus Cash offer (not as good as the deal they were running in October for $6250+ off)
- Standard Range trims are excluded
- Ford has to do better than that if the tax credit is getting removed in 2024...
Electric XT6. This is the 3-row EV prototype we've seen driving around the past year. Looks very nice. Expected to be on sale in 2025; price range ~ $70k-$90k.
No other information has been released by Cadillac except for the following 2 photos. Wheels are 22-inches...

The future of EVs looks exciting! I wonder how long the charging time is.
The Optiq will likely be Cadillac's version of the Equinox EV with dimensions very similar to the Mach-E. Will it be the XT4's EV equivalent?
- I like the exterior design influences from the Escalade IQ
- 7 inches shorter than the Lyriq but still ~ 190" long (and 4" longer than the Mach E!)

Available late 2024. Front design looks similar to the upcoming Hyundai Ioniq 7. Gorgeous design, just wish it had more buttons in the interior.

Although this is clearly in a different class than the Mach-E, Ford...
Ordinarily I would not even consider the GV60 or RZ450e at all, but the GV60 has a lower priced longer ranged variant for 2024 and Lexus is offering a $15k lease cash incentive.
2024 GV60 Standard RWD: $52k, 294 mile range, 221 hp (!!)...
Full size EV with a full size gas engine, brilliant! Wish Ford had done something similar or at least make a larger range PHEV. I'll be adding the forthcoming Jeep Wagoneer S EV to my list as it'll have similar technology.
- 400V, 145 kW charging speed (a little slow)
- bidirectional...
According to @Mocar, the EV6 will be getting a mild refresh with a redesigned exterior and interior. No word yet on whether there will be an upgrade to the battery tech/powertrain. Artist's impression below.

Great specs for its diminutive size; ideal urban EV. Of course I detest the EX30's Tesla-speedometer-center screen implementation and lack of a driver display/HUD. Ford needs to drop the price of the Select below $40k imo; $39,999 would be more competitive. MSRP is still too high...
