BMW, VW, Merc and more: Munich motor show’s biggest reveals

Share

It will be sold alongside the current, fourth-generation petrol X3 and will have slimmer batteries than the electric version of that car, bringing a dramatic leap in range up to 497 miles, as previously reported by Autocar.

That would make it Britain’s longest-range EV.

Cupra concept

Cupra will take the wraps off a new concept car that is expected to showcase the next generation of its interior design.

An official preview image shows a radical new cabin similar to that of the DarkRebel concept, which was unveiled in 2023, and includes a yoke-like steering wheel, a chunky central spine and racing seats.

Cupra Raval

The Cupra Raval will make its production debut at the show. It will be the Spanish brand’s smallest EV, sitting below the Volkswagen ID 3-twinned Born.

Like that car, it will be positioned as the most sporty and “rebellious” variant of the Volkswagen Group’s MEB Entry model range.

To that end, it will feature a more aggressive-looking design than the Volkswagen ID 2, which it will be built alongside.

Hyundai Ioniq 2

Hyundai is poised to reveal an electric crossover, most likely an electric alternative to the existing Bayon (above) badged Ioniq 2, as it pushes to expand its EV offerings.

Understood by Autocar to be twinned with sibling brand Kia’s incoming EV2, the compact crossover will plug the gap between the Inster and Kona Electric.

Set to be revealed at the Munich show, it will be positioned as a rival to the likes of the Renault 4 and Volvo EX30.
