2025'S MOST ANTICIPATED ELECTRIC VEHICLE REVEALED

EV Channels Review

The EV Geek podcast hosts discuss their most anticipated electric vehicles for 2025, highlighting six key models. The Cadillac Optiq is noted for its luxury appeal, slotting below the Lyriq with a dual-motor AWD powertrain and an estimated 300 miles of range, though a detail about its battery sharing was corrected. The Ram 1500 REV is anticipated for its massive battery options (up to 229 kWh) promising 500 miles of range and an 800-volt architecture, despite potential delays and pricing concerns. The Hyundai Ioniq 7 is praised for its potential US assembly and tax credit eligibility, aiming for 300 miles of range with a 110.3 kWh battery and fast charging. The Lucid Gravity SUV is discussed for its impressive claimed 450-mile range and luxury interior, though its minivan-like exterior styling is a point of contention, with deliveries expected in early 2025. The Tesla Model Y 'Juniper Edition' is eagerly awaited, with hopes for improved ride comfort, a more premium interior, and updated styling mirroring the Model 3 refresh, though the removal of stalks is a concern. Finally, the Volvo EX30 is highlighted for its potential as a mass-market EV, offering good range (275 miles) and excellent software integration, but its pricing is uncertain due to tariffs, with a target of around $40,000 being seen as acceptable for its premium offering.
