After five years of announcements and concepts, the Polestar 5 is finally here. The Swedish brand's latest electric grand tourer, unveiled at the IAA Mobility show in Munich, is the realization of the vision of the 2020 Precept concept.

Revealed at the Volkswagen Group workshop ahead of the IAA in Munich, the Epiq has already stolen some of the spotlight. But let's take a look at it with all the cynicism and excitement it deserves.
The name sounds like a comic book android, but the Togg T10X is very real: a “smart device” with 523 km WLTP, 0-100 km/h in 7.4 seconds and its own Trugo fast charging network. With a double whammy – technology + range – Turkey enters the European EV ring.

BMW has put itself at the center of the electric renaissance with the introduction of the iX3 Neue Klasse. The car is everything you would expect from a Bavarian premium: technologically sophisticated, design-confident and with a range that will give many buyers the first feeling that an electric future is truly practical. Up to 800 kilometers (WLTP), 400-kilowatt charging, futuristic interior with a 43-inch projection screen across the entire windshield – on paper the iX3 enters as an electric “game changer”. But - its own pricing strategy could bury it. We reveal - the prices of the BMW iX3 Neue Klasse.

We are often asked in the editorial office which car “has chic”. Charisma is not an Excel spreadsheet; it is the way a car greets you, how it turns in a shop window and how it squeezes into that too-tight parking space without drama. Below is my selection of 10 2025 city cars and smaller models that stand out – nine are electric, one is a cute petrol “wildcard”. I wasn’t chasing hundreds on the Nürburgring, but what counts in real life: range, charging, interior usability, design, technology… and a dash of flirtatious confidence.
