If you have trouble reading this message, view it in a browser. Lexus promises EV sports car, XPeng expands in Europe, and DeLorean plots a comeback. But first: This week Mercedes-AMG detailed the latest addition to its battery-electric roster, with the EQE promising to bring well over 600 hp to the performance electric sedan in the brand's rapidly-growing EV lineup. Powered by 90.6-kWh battery, the sleek dual-motor four-door will arrive on sale stateside in 2023. The AMG version of the EQE will follow the debut of the standard model. But the EQE will be more than just about giggle-inducing performance, as the model is intended to be just as plush inside as its larger EQS sibling, complete with the optional Hyperscreen. The EQE 53 won't have too many direct rivals when it lands here next year, with the upcoming electric BMW i5 also expected to arrive in 2023 with a performance variant likely not far behind. So the EQE 53 may have this narrow niche to itself only for a short period of time. Fisker has revealed only this teaser image of its planned PEAR. Speaking of new EVs, this week Fisker opened up reservations for an EV that it hasn't even revealed yet. Dubbed the Fisker PEAR, or Personal Electric Automotive Revolution, the planned model is intended to be an affordable, five-passenger urban EV, with a starting price of $29,900 before taxes and any state or federal incentives. However, the company hasn't shared any planned technical target figures. Just because electric cars are coming, it doesn't mean they are going to be boring. At least, that's not the case with the upcoming Lexus battery-electric sports car. While we're still far from the expected 2030 launch date for the upcoming Lexus machine, the team behind the upcoming Lexus sports coupe released some new images of its still-to-be-named machine.
Amid record demand for EVs in northern Europe, China's XPeng is headed to more countries on the continent after establishing a foothold in Norway in 2020. The automaker—often described as one of Tesla's competitors in China, along with Nio—revealed that it will launch operations in Sweden and the Netherlands with retail stores as well as dealership networks.
