00:00As automakers strive to meet the demands of a rapidly changing world, they're bringing
00:05new technology, safety features, and design concepts to the forefront of their 2024 lineups.
00:11Here are the top eco-friendly cars set to launch in 2024.
00:16Hyundai IONIQ 5 The 2024 IONIQ 5 is supposed to be a higher
00:22voltage version of the 2023 IONIQ 5 that was already pretty good.
00:27If you want a vehicle that offers even crazier performance numbers, Hyundai is adding the
00:31extra power with its IONIQ 5 N variant.
00:34This time, drivers are getting dual electric motors that are tapped to produce around 600
00:39horsepower.
00:40Every other thing will also be significantly upgraded as well.
00:44Larger wheels, bigger brakes, wider fenders, a more sporty nosepiece, and a larger rear
00:49diffuser.
00:51This one should be a delight to drive.
00:53It's worth mentioning that the 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 5 is getting a massive software update
00:58which is expected to help with customer complaints made in the previous year model.
01:02Hyundai is also planning to reveal a smaller variant of this performance EV, but it's not
01:06going to be revealed until 2025.
01:10Canoe The Canoe pickup takes the utility of all
01:14pickup trucks to a whole new level with its design, so the attention it's canvassed over
01:19the last few years does not come as a surprise at all.
01:24Thanks to being an EV, the company has taken full advantage of the pickup size to offer
01:27the best space for passengers, cargo, and a ton of bells and whistles.
01:32As we draw closer to its projected 2024 availability, there is bound to be more hype in the direction
01:37of this truck, and we cannot wait to see how it performs in reality.
01:41The range on the Canoe pickup truck is set at around 400 miles, and it's also expected
01:46to put out a whopping 600 horsepower.
01:49Interestingly, the US Army was also attracted by the setup of the Canoe pickup truck and
01:54has already ordered a fleet of modified versions.
01:57Moreover, companies like Walmart are interested in a cargo delivery version of the same pickup
02:02truck.
02:03More orders means the project is still alive and we should see the final production very
02:07very soon.
02:09Buick Electra E5 Finally, Buick is also getting into the electric
02:15car race with this new Electra E5.
02:17Interestingly, this SUV will run on an Ultium battery platform that is designed by General
02:22Motors.
02:23It may also be similar in specs to the Cadillac Lyric, but a more budget version.
02:28The Electra SUV is expected to have between 350-400 horsepower depending on trims and
02:33feature level.
02:34The design of the new Buick EV is quite balanced.
02:38On the outside, you're getting a good mixture of a traditional design and the futuristic
02:41style of an electric car.
02:43The interior, on the other hand, looks absolutely amazing and unique for the Buick brand.
02:48The style, color theme, space, multi-colored ambient lighting, and a curved 30-inch infotainment
02:54display.
02:55This is bound to be a pretty cool SUV for both China and US markets.
03:00Kia EV5 If you're going to buy a crossover EV SUV,
03:05then you may want to wait a little bit for the all-new Kia EV5.
03:09This one is bound to be a delight.
03:12If Kia's recent press releases are anything to go by, then we can expect great things
03:16from the EV5.
03:18So far, major specs and numbers are kept secret, but the overall design direction has Kia fans
03:24on a high.
03:25It draws most of its inspiration from the earlier announced EV9, and we have to say
03:30that this is very well done.
03:32From the amazing design on the outside to a very unusual design on the inside as well.
03:37The rear hinged doors swing open to reveal a very spacious cabin with seats that turn
03:42in different directions.
03:44Considering that this is still a concept design and not the final production unit of the vehicle,
03:48we do expect a few things to be toned down.
03:51But you have to give Kia credit for being so aggressive with EV options you can buy
03:55from them.
03:57Fisker Pair How would you feel if you could buy a really
04:01decent electric car from Fisker for around $30,000?
04:06Since its announcement last year, Fisker has continued to drop snippets regarding the Fisker
04:11Pair.
04:12Over 5,000 reservations that have already been made for this budget crossover, which
04:16will start at around $30,000, is proof that the teasers are working.
04:21With around 250 miles of estimated range, most future Pair owners will probably never
04:26need more than that.
04:27The anticipation and excitement are as intense as they could ever be.
04:31When Fisker Ocean became the highly anticipated Tesla Model Y alternative, we knew that the
04:36company could definitely make a smaller size EV for much cheaper than Ocean.
04:40At the moment, we do know that the design of Fisker Pair is pushing boundaries with
04:45its architecture, solar panel roof, and a Houdini trunk.
04:49The only hope right now is that Fisker won't raise prices due to supply chain costs, spikes,
04:54and so on.
04:55If Fisker will be able to do it, then millions of new orders are destined to go to Fisker.
05:01Honda Prologue While Honda may not have the most popular
05:05brand when it comes to electric cars, it does look like they are on the brink of a breakthrough
05:10with the 2024 Prologue SUV.
05:13The company has revealed what this SUV is like, and not so much info on what it can
05:17do on the drive.
05:19The only thing we can say for sure is that its platform will be mainly collaborated with
05:23General Motors, so expectations are high for this one.
05:27Design wise, the 2024 Honda Prologue already snatches a good grade.
05:31You're getting a pretty cool compact SUV that can offer more space than the smaller
05:35models without the bulk of a big size SUV.
05:39A pretty interesting choice by the Japanese automaker.
05:42If you like a minimalist design, the Prologue makes for a perfect choice.
05:46The concept models so far show off a great blend of functionality, aesthetics, and simplicity.
05:52We cannot wait to see what comes next with about a $45,000 price tag.
05:57VinFast VF-7 The VF-7 is VinFast's response to the Toyota
06:04BZ-4X, which suggests that it may end up being a possible best fan favorite of VinFast's
06:10electric SUVs.
06:11The VF-7 should appeal to a wide range of electric SUV buyers because it's compact enough
06:17for confined urban environments, but substantially large enough to compete on the open road.
06:23VinFast will be offered in Eco and Plus versions, just like the smaller VF-6.
06:27349hp and 368lb-ft of torque are anticipated to be produced by the more potent dual-motor
06:34all-wheel drive Plus variant.
06:37Regarding the front-drive single-motor VF-7 Eco, expect the same 201hp and 228lb-ft of
06:44torque, but hopefully something more optimized to offer a little more punch.
06:48Details about battery pack capacity and EV system charging are not yet available.
06:53The VF-7 will be marketed as an upscale electric crossover with options including premium vegan
06:59leather upholstery trim and a panoramic sunroof.
07:02A front LED light bar with animated effects and rear trademark LED lights are among its
07:07exterior features.
07:09Each VF-7 will also be equipped with various active driver assistance systems.
07:15Hyundai Kona Hyundai is now prepared to introduce the new
07:20crossover generation which will hit American shores for the 2024 model year.
07:25There will be four different variants.
07:27Unsurprisingly, we're getting an EV version now.
07:31Then there is the purely combustion-powered, a hybrid, and the inline.
07:36Hyundai's designers first created the new Kona EV before incorporating the design into
07:41the other models.
07:42They all have a recognizable light bar along the edge of the hood up front.
07:47Below this strip on the corners are the headlights.
07:50The 2024 Hyundai Kona retains both of its four-cylinder engines from the previous generation.
07:55A 147hp 2.0L engine will be the base model, with a turbocharged 1.6L four-cylinder engine
08:02offered as an option.
08:04The hybrid drivetrain revealed for the Kona in other regions might also be available.
08:10Mercedes-AMG EQE SUV Mercedes unveiled a fully electric SUV that
08:17was the more potent AMG model, giving the five-seater up to 671hp and 500kW.
08:24The two variants each have their front fascias, while the standard EQE SUV has a closed-off
08:30grille with a star motif.
08:32AMG's face has vertical accents with a Panamericana grille-inspired appearance.
08:38The interiors of the two vehicles are similar, and both come with the brand's optional
08:42hyperscreen display.
08:44Mercedes will also provide four trim levels for the Mercedes-AMG EQE SUV, from the base
08:50350 plus to the AMG.
08:53The rear-wheel drive 350 plus will have a single motor producing 288hp, 214kW, and 417lb-ft
09:01of torque or 565Nm of torque.
09:04Mercedes will sell the 536hp or 392kW EQE 500 SUV and the dual-motor EQE 350 4MATIC.
09:14Customization will allow new Mercedes EQE owners to determine price as well as how long
09:20their vehicle can go when fully charged.
09:22Kia EV9 Early 2024 is when the 2024 Kia EV9 is anticipated
09:29to appear.
09:30The 2024 Kia EV9 will be built on the EV6's popularity while being a big brother SUV with
09:36three rows.
09:37Interestingly, there will be five different trim options for the EV9 with a starting price
09:42of about $55,000.
09:45When built with max options, it should have roughly 400hp and 480lb-ft of torque.
09:51If you want the top potent version of this EV, those are not bad numbers for a three-row
09:56family SUV.
09:57For Kia, it's crucial to have a family EV in the fleet as the auto industry embraces
10:02electrification more and more.
10:04That will be the 2024 Kia EV9.
10:08Depending on how the interior is set up, it will most likely have seats for 6 or 7 people
10:12as a three-row SUV.
10:15Audi Q6 e-tron The Q6 e-tron is Audi's latest all-new electric
10:21SUV that is truly a performance and design masterpiece.
10:26Audi has been quite busy when it comes to electric vehicles, and it looks like they
10:29are taking the fight one step further with the new Q6 e-tron.
10:34So far, the design of the test units that have been spotted reveal its unique design
10:38language that Audi has built for this particular vehicle.
10:41Furthermore, Audi has confirmed that its Q6 e-tron will carry a massive 800-volt electrical
10:46system.
10:47It will also have two design variations, one regular crossover SUV shape and a sloped-back
10:53version that gives a more sporty vibe.
10:56Judging by the number attached to the name, this should be a middle ground from what the
11:00Q4 and Q8 e-tron offer.
11:04GMC Sierra EV Here is an all-new electric GMC truck that
11:10boasts pretty cool numbers in every category.
11:13The Sierra EV will be released in a single most premium Denali Edition 1 trim.
11:19It will be powered by a dual-motor all-wheel drive setup that produces 754 horsepower.
11:25GMC confirmed that its Sierra EV will last for a total of 400 miles from a full charge,
11:31and its maximum towing capacity is set at 9,500 lbs.
11:35Combine these with the stunning exterior and luxury premium interior on the inside, you'll
11:40be paying around $100,000 for the 2024 GMC Sierra EV.
11:45Is it worth it?
11:46You can decide on it when it comes out very soon.
11:50Genesis GV70 With everything turning electric in 2024,
11:55Genesis has decided to fully electrify its premium V6 engine GV70 SUV, and many people
12:02will probably consider it as their next luxury electric SUV.
12:06If you already like how the gas-powered GV70 looks, then you'll be happy to know that
12:10not a lot has changed in its upcoming electrified version on the exterior.
12:14If you don't, well, you may want to look at it again because this masterpiece SUV stands
12:19out from the crowd.
12:21Also, you will be glad to know that the mechanical makeup of the electrified GV70 will offer
12:26just about the same feel as driving its gas-powered counterpart, which will make it easy for people
12:31transitioning from gas to electric.
12:34As for specs, you are getting a 77.5kW battery that should last around 250-300 miles of driving
12:41on a single charge.
12:42Also, with the dual-motor all-wheel drive version, you should be packing about 429 horsepower.
12:48With the 2024 Genesis GV70 Electric, the luxury SUV segment is going to get even more competitive.
12:56Hyundai IONIQ 7
12:59The 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 7, an all-electric SUV resembling the three-row Hyundai Palisade,
13:05is the new electric car Hyundai plans to use as a trigger for deep market penetration.
13:11This vehicle will have a seating capacity of 7 or 8.
13:14The Hyundai IONIQ 7 model is one of the three new electric vehicles the company is already
13:19committed to releasing in the following years.
13:22There's no official word on the vehicle's release, although three trim levels might
13:25be anticipated.
13:27Because the company is concentrating on producing a vehicle that has a driving range of 300
13:31miles minimum, it's anticipated that this vehicle will feature a huge usable capacity
13:36battery and a 350kW fast charger will be included.
13:41Acura ZDX
13:48This is clearly Acura's first major attempt to join the EV movement, however, expectations
13:53are already high for the 2024 Acura ZDX.
13:56There's been some chatter about the 2024 ZDX sharing the same platform with the Cadillac
14:01Lyric.
14:02While that might come as a shock, it should not distract you from the bigger picture.
14:06The Cadillac Lyric is a pretty amazing ride, and if that's anything to go by, then we
14:10may be getting the 2024 ZDX with around 500hp at its most powerful stage.
14:16Acura has not yet stated what the battery capacity will be.
14:19Nevertheless, the 2024 Acura ZDX may be getting the same 102kWh battery from the Lyric.
14:26So we're also looking forward to the range in the 300 mile per charge region.
14:30The 2024 ZDX is expected to retail at about $60,000 to $70,000 for its base model, and
14:37we're looking forward to how that turns out in production.
14:40Cadillac Celestic
14:42For many years, the Cadillac has struggled to compete with European luxury brands.
14:47Still, it has persevered as seen by the release of its new electric flagship, the new 2024
14:53Celestic Luxury Sedan.
14:55Although this stunning vehicle resembles the new Lyric EV SUV in terms of family resemblance,
15:02it stands out thanks to its slender lines, sweeping roof, and bustling rear end.
15:07The designers at Cadillac claim to have combined historical design cues with cutting-edge technologies
15:12that forecast the future course of the American luxury brand.
15:16The interior decor is equally as dramatic as the exterior, and the cabin dazzles with
15:21vividly colored leather, a 55-inch digital dashboard, and bucket seats designed in the
15:26Eames style.
15:27A small group of artisans will hand-build each Celestic as the line assembles them.
15:32According to the EPA, the Ultium battery pack that powers the Celestic is big enough to
15:37provide around 300 miles of driving range per charge.
15:41According to Cadillac, a 200kW connection will give the battery a range of 78 miles
15:45in just 10 minutes.
15:48Ram 1500 REV After getting rumored and teased for nearly
15:53a year, we finally know what Ram's incoming EV truck will look like on the U.S. roads.
15:58While the newly revealed production version of the Ram 1500 REV is not as imposing as
16:04its initial concept reveals, it still comes with the futuristic aesthetic that seems to
16:08be customary with EVs.
16:10For Ram drivers who wouldn't want to go too far from what they're used to already,
16:14the good news is that it still looks just like a good old Ram truck, just electric.
16:19The promised 500 miles range will make the Ram EV truck the longest-range pickup truck
16:24with a battery.
16:26One downside here is that a toned-down design also means that a lot of the features that
16:31came with the outlandish concept design may also be getting ripped.
16:35Ram is keeping most of the important information regarding the 1500 REV as exclusive as possible,
16:40and it may remain that way for a couple more weeks or months.
16:43All I can confirm right now is that the design still gets a trunk in the front, similar to
16:48its rival electric pickup trucks.
