The Model Y is a global sales phenomenon – every second electric mom and every third startup owner drives one. But in 2025, there are electric SUVs that offer more character, a better interior, and even some soul. Here are three alternatives that will awaken your electric ego from the Tesla ecosystem. TOP 3 alternatives to the Tesla Model Y!
Aston Martin clearly can't stop – and honestly, no one wants to. After introducing the DBX S and Vantage S this year, the British brand has now revealed the Aston Martin DB12 S, its latest star among sports coupes. The new model is not just a cosmetic upgrade, but a serious injection of power and engineering sophistication, with which Aston Martin aims to prove that it can still push the boundaries between elegance and brutality.
Suzuki 2025 is not flirting with the future in Tokyo – it is rushing into it at full speed. While others swear by electric power alone, the Japanese are showing the bigger picture: a world where batteries, ethanol, hydrogen and biomethane will coexist. At the Japan Mobility Show 2025, they are proving that carbon neutrality is not a goal, but a process – and that there is more than one way to get there.
In an era where electric cars are fighting for every mile of range and every euro of savings, Tesla has made an interesting move with the Tesla Model 3 Standard – a version that is like the premium model's older brother, only stripped of a few unnecessary luxury extras. If you were expecting a revolutionary redesign, like the Model Y, get ready for a subtle surprise: less is really more, at least for your wallet. But is this "standard" really the standard for the modern urban man? Let's take a look under the hood – or rather, under the glass roof.
In a world where electric cars are becoming the new norm, Tesla has surprised again—this time with the Model Y Standard, which is like Elon Musk saying, "Hey, why pay for all those unnecessary extras when you can drive the bare truth?" This "naked" version of the popular SUV promises a lower price without too many compromises, but does it deliver on its promise? We dig into the details revealed by recent reviews and find out if this is a car for the masses or just for those with minimalist tastes.
Imagine a Tesla that isn't just for the tech-rich, but for those who count every euro. The new Model 3 and Model Y Standard promise a revolution: less equipment, a lower price, but still enough power to keep you glued to your seat. Is this a stroke of genius or just a cosmetic diet? Let's see, with a touch of irony – because there's something good in every car, even if it's just saving on your electricity bill.
In an age where kids would rather be pressing buttons on their game consoles than trudging through mud, Triumph has done something that could save the future of motorcycling. Imagine a three-year-old on a miniature electric off-road bike that instantly transforms from seated trail adventurer to standing trials master – no tools required, just by removing the seat. Yes, that’s the TXP series, the brainchild of British legend Triumph and their 2022 acquisition of OSET. It’s not just a Sunday afternoon toy; it’s a serious piece of technology that builds balance, coordination and that irresistible love of two wheels. And considering we grew up on bikes without a motor, where the only “safety feature” was a mom yelling “Watch out!” then this is a step up. But hey, if your little one is going to be the next Tony Bou, who am I to complain? It’s an electric evolution that promises fewer tears and more smiles – at least until they fall for the first time.
Imagine a car that looks like a cube on wheels, weighs less than the average elephant and promises to make electric mobility accessible to everyone. The Dacia Hipster is more than just a concept – it’s a manifesto against the unnecessary complexity of modern vehicles. With a rugged, boxy design reminiscent of a futuristic kei car, this little guy proves that less really is more. Will it be the next hit on city streets? Read on and laugh at the ingenious simplicity that could change the game for everyday drivers.
Ever imagine your car being like an old, loyal friend who doesn't complain about sand in the gears, but takes you across the Sahara with a smile? The Arksen Project Sahara is exactly that – a revamped Land Rover Defender that combines British ruggedness with modern overland equipment. At a time when everyone is talking about electric toys, this diesel veteran proves that classic technology still reigns supreme in the wilderness. With a bit of irony: why wait for a filling station in the middle of nowhere when you can fill up with diesel and keep going? This rig will get you excited for serious expeditions, but at the same time remains civilized enough for city driving.
Imagine taking a Range Rover from the beginning of the millennium – the one that is already the king of luxury SUVs – and spinning it back to a time when cars still had souls, not just screens and sensors. Velvet Motorworks, the Estonian wizards behind the wheel, are doing just that: they've taken the third-generation (L322) and transformed it into something that breathes nostalgia but roars with modern power. The Range Rover Reimagined isn't just a restoration, it's a rebirth - with a bit of irony, because who would have thought that "old" would become the new trend? But hey, in a world where new SUVs are more like smartphones on wheels, that analog feel is a real treat. Get ready for a ride that will take you through the mud and down the highway without sacrificing style.
The Porsche 904 Carrera GTS wasn't just another pretty face from the 1960s. It was a car that proved that Stuttgart could beat the big players in endurance racing with a little fiberglass (used for the first time at the time), ingenious engineering and tenacity. Only 106 were built between 1964 and 1965, and only three of them had the rare Formula 1-derived V8.
The Dacia Bigster is Dacia's big entry into the C-SUV segment: huge, hybrid, affordable – and painfully honest about its compromises. The internet is already whispering: towing is poor, the camera is falling asleep, safety is "only" three stars. Here's a distillate of the faults most often detected by the web – and what you get in return.
