From all-electric models to rugged SUVs, 2023 is shaping up to be an exciting year for the auto industry. Read on as we roundup the best new cars for 2023 and what to expect from iconic manufacturers like Alfa Romeo, BMW, Fiat and more.

Audi A6 e-tron

Audi has embraced the EV movement and the A6 e-tron is the latest model to turn heads. The world first got a glimpse at the 2021 Shanghai Motor Show, and in 2023, the model is set to make an appearance on roads. Features to love include the sleek silhouette, powerful 100kWh battery and impressive range of up to 430 miles.

Fiat Panda EV

Affordable and eco-friendly, the new look Panda is more adorable than ever in 2023. The styling takes inspiration from the original 1980s version, which had a utilitarian aesthetic. The biggest change is the all-electric engine. There are also plans to launch a larger SUV version. No doubt both will emerge as favourites with Brits looking for entry-level EVs.

Alfa Romeo Giulia EV

While all-electric trailblazers like the Nissan Leaf will always have a special place in our hearts, brands like Alfa Romeo are taking the concept of zero-emissions to the next level. In 2023, the next-generation Alfa Romeo Giulia will step up as a genuine rival to luxury offerings like the Tesla Model 3. The all-electric saloon is one of the best new cars for 2023 and delivers a huge 500 miles of range. Under the hood is a ferocious motor with 800 volt architecture. Charge times are lightning fast, with the battery topped up to 80% in just 20 minutes.

BMW i5/5 Series

The game-changing 5 Series range will include an all-electric i5 version, plus ICE and PHEV options. The luxury executive saloon is now in its eighth generation and boasts some of the brand’s most ambitious upgrades yet. 

Honda Electric SUV

The e-SUV is the latest addition to Honda’s all-electric range. While little is known about this rugged new addition to the EV range, insiders reveal it walks the line between the HR-V crossover and Jazz supermini. Don’t expect Range Rover dimensions. This compact SUV draws inspiration from its pint-sized Honda E predecessor, making it a great option for city driving. It’s also packed with features designed to delight technophiles, making it one of the best new cars for 2023.

Honda CR-V

Geared towards families, the new Honda CR-V will move into its sixth generation in 2023. A rival to the best-selling Toyota RAV4, the new model will feature an eco-conscious hybrid system.

Jeep Wagoneer S

While Jeeps will always look good with mud-splattered tyres, the latest addition to the family has received a luxurious upgrade. The flagship SUV features a 592bhp electric motor that can accelerate from zero to 60mph in just 3.5 seconds. Don’t let trademark rugged features like grille bars and square wheel arches fool you. The Wagoneer S is suitably luxurious and steps up as a competitor to models like the Mercedes EQS SUV and BMW iX.

Kia EV4

The Kia EV4 follows in the footsteps of the wildly successful EV6. The fully-electric crossover will join the Kia family in 2023 and will feature a similar silhouette to the Sportage SUV. With 300 miles of range, it’s not a top-performing EV but it’s more than capable of getting you from A to B.

Kia EV9

Another exciting addition from Kia, the EV9 brings sharp lines, state-of-the-art tech and a spacious seven-seat cabin to the table. The large SUV body isn’t just for show. It’s been put through rigorous testing to ensure it’s capable of tackling tough terrain. The interior is luxurious yet minimalist, with a huge 27-inch-wide digital dashboard.

Dacia Bigster

With a starting price of £20,000, the Dacia Bigster offers incredible value for money. This chunky SUV may not have the prestige of models like the Range Rover Evoque and BMW X7, but it’s big on space, comfort and practicality. When it comes to bang for your buck, this is one of the top new cars for 2023.

Ford Mustang

The Ford Mustang is a cult classic, and in 2023, it’s due for an upgrade. Unlike other brands, the company has kept the powerful 5.0-litre V8 petrol engine, a move that’s sure to please a slew of motorists. The front end is more eye catching than ever and the interior has been refreshed with a 12.4-inch digital instrument display and advanced connectivity features. At the back, you’ll see the iconic tri-bar rear lights we all know and love. Choose from either a coupe or soft-top convertible.

Hyundai Ioniq 6

Sleek and streamlined, the Hyundai Ioniq 6 draws comparisons with luxury models like the Tesla Model 3, BMW i4 and Polestar 2. The first edition of the four-door saloon starts at £54,995 and features a dual motor. Though, in a move that’s sure to please Hyundai disciples, the launch will also include single motor models with a more affordable price point. Even better, range is estimated at 450 miles.

Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance

The Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance challenges everything you thought you knew about saloons. The V8 engine has been replaced by plug-in hybrid technology that delivers around 40.9mg and around eight miles of all-electric range. Perfect for running zero-emission errands! When you hit the highway, it’ll take you from zero to 62mph in just 3.4 seconds. Prices start at around £90,000.
