10:46 Edmunds’ Take

With high-profile vehicle cancellations making headlines, you might be wondering: are EVs dead? The short answer is a definitive no, but the market is undergoing a massive shift. While legacy automakers have canceled or discontinued over 20 electric models this past year—including trucks like the Ford F-150 Lightning and premium options like the Tesla Model S—a massive wave of new electric cars is preparing to hit the streets.
We are expecting more than 40 new EVs to debut soon, targeting everything from budget buyers to luxury enthusiasts. In the affordable space, the return of the Chevy Bolt and the budget-friendly Tesla Model 3 Rear-Wheel Drive prove that practical electric cars don’t have to break the bank. Meanwhile, the three-row family market is heating up with exceptional performance from the Hyundai Ioniq 9 and the high-tech Lucid Gravity.
But the real game-changers are the upcoming electric SUVs slated for late 2026 and beyond. The highly anticipated Rivian R2 promises to disrupt the compact crossover segment with an estimated 330 miles of range and a starting price around $45,000. Not to be outdone, BMW is launching its next generation of vehicles, including the BMW iX3, a small luxury EV packed with class-leading driving dynamics and next-gen tech. Our final verdict? Dealers may currently have higher inventory, but as infrastructure improves and more affordable choices arrive, the future of electric mobility remains incredibly bright.
