MG Cyberster
Renault 5
MG is a brand that continues to grow in the UK, with sales continuing to climb exponentially. It’s so far focused on more run-of-the-mill cars and affordable EVs but is now looking to add some spark back with performance models – principally the Cyberster. Due to arrive in time for the summer, the Cyberster looks to revive MG’s performance car status, though the principle difference will be that this stunning two-seat roadster is powered by electric this time.
One particularly interesting EV arriving in 2024 is the new Renault 5, as this French firm revives its classic nameplates for its next-generation electric cars.Already teased on numerous occasions in concept form, we’ll get to see production models for the first time next year, with a reveal planned at February’s Geneva Motor Show. Expect a funky design, plenty of cool technologies and an enjoyable driving experience as the firm’s ‘Renaullution’ gets into full swing. Renault’s new electric Scenic SUV also arrives in 2024.
Mini Cooper
Skoda Kodiaq
One new car many will be looking forward to in 2024 is the arrival of the new Mini Cooper.This iconic British car returns for a new generation, and gains quite the styling revamp with a cleaner, less fussy design and high-tech interior. Production will continue to take place in Oxford for the petrol models, though Mini will also offer an impressive new next-generation of its electric model (built in China for the time being), bringing a substantial uplift in the range – the firm claims up to 250 miles.
On a more sensible level, next year sees the introduction of a next-generation version of the Skoda Kodiaq – the largest model the firm sells.This large SUV has been a huge hit with families since its introduction, with this new model likely to continue that. The new Kodiaq grows further in size, and continues to be available with seven seats. It will also be offered with a plug-in hybrid powertrain for the first time. Skoda will also introduce a new version of its flagship Superb in 2024 in what will be a very busy 12 months for the firm.
Range Rover EV
Volvo EX30
Land Rover is now one of the largest car firms that still doesn’t sell an electric car, but that will change next year when the eagerly-anticipated Range Rover EV arrives. It will be sold alongside petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid versions of this flagship SUV. It’s yet to be revealed, and many details are still under wraps. Expect a huge battery capable of a range of around 350 miles, with no compromise when it comes to luxury or off-roading ability.We expect to see it revealed in the first part of 2024.
The terms ‘good value’ and ‘premium SUV’ rarely go hand- in-hand, but Volvo is looking to change that with the arrival of the EX30 in 2024. It will be the Swedish firm’s first bespoke electric car, and courtesy of a starting price of £33,795 – undercutting most rivals – is expected to prove a big hit. It will also be the smallest Volvo model available, but still offer plenty in the way of technology, quality and a range of up to 298 miles.At the other end of Volvo’s spectrum, its flagship EX90 SUV is expected to be introduced right at the end of 2024.
