Fancy an all-electric station wagon but also really want a Porsche? Guess what. Finally, a high-performance, fully electric station wagon! The Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo is coming, albeit without the big daddy Turbo S model. As you might expect, it adds storage space and jacks the ride up a bit for more off-roadability. Porsche is also set to introduce a less expensive base model of the sedan, simply called Taycan. It’s the first rear-wheel drive one though, so it should be good fun, despite being lower on power than the other models.
Cross Turismo due here: Q4 2021 (priced from $194,900). Taycan base model due here: Q2 2021 ($173,900).

Kia’s EV6 was designed under the brand’s new design philosophy, “Opposites United”, which takes inspiration from the contrasts found in nature and humanity.
At the centre of the design philosophy is a new visual identity evoking positive forces and natural energy, with contrasting combinations of sharp stylistic elements and sculptural shapes.
EV6 embodies Kia’s shift to electrification
Boasting a distinctive crossover-inspired design and based on the brand’s new Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), EV6 is Kia’s first dedicated BEV to be influenced by the new design philosophy, which embodies Kia’s shifting focus towards electrification.
“EV6, as the first dedicated Kia EV, is a showcase of human-centred, progressive design and electrified power. We strongly believe EV6 is a compelling and relevant model for the new EV market,” said Kia’s senior vice-president and head of global design centre Karim Habib.
