Jeep’s been selling an electric vehicle overseas since 2022, but its first model powered by batteries for the U.S. is finally set to debut on May 30. It’s a midsize SUV called the Wagoneer S, and Jeep confirmed it is quicker to 60 mph than both the Tesla Model Y Performance and the former Hellcat-powered Grand Cherokee Trackhawk.
BMW is working on a new generation of the M5 with plug-in hybrid power, and there will be both sedan and wagon body styles this time around. The debut will take place later this year, and BMW confirmed that both body styles will make it to the U.S.
Kia unveiled its smallest EV yet in the form of the EV3 subcompact crossover. Despite only being a few inches longer than the Kia Soul, the EV3 fits a big 81.4-kwh battery, or enough for a range of more than 300 miles.
