With that, comes a new year and for us, that means checking out the new cars that are being released this year.<\/span>\r\n\r\nWe\u2019re excited about new cars this year because many car manufacturers are swiftly creating new electric counterparts. Many developed countries around the world passed legislation heading towards electric vehicles, including Singapore.<\/span>\r\n\r\nSo, we thought it would be a good idea to include more electric vehicles. Also, if you don\u2019t know already, buying an electric vehicle in 2021 comes with more rebates through <\/span>the <\/span>EV Early Adoption Incentive<\/span><\/a> (EEAI)<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nLearn more about the different measures that the Singapore government has introduced <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\r\n

1. Mercedes EQC<\/b><\/h2>\r\nThis is Mercedes\u2019 first electric SUV to be available in Singapore. <\/span>\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=w1qnN5Ad-nk&ab_channel=Mercedes-BenzUSA\r\n\r\nAs of January 2021, the only luxury electric SUV available is the Jaguar i-Pace and the Audi e-Tron, but with the Mercedes EQC and the BMW iX3 entering the market, competition in this segment is going to get heated.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n

2. Audi e-Tron S<\/b><\/h2>\r\n

Alongside a couple of design changes to give the e-Tron S a more aggressive look,\u00a0 it comes with 3 electric motors instead of 2 to improve dynamic handling. Because of this, the e-Tron S has an added 94 bhp which brings it to a total of 496 bhp.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

3. Lexus UX 300e<\/b><\/h2>\r\n

With a 315km range, an excellent interior, and good power figures for a car this size, it is a great start to Lexus\u2019 electric car offerings.<\/span>\r\n

4. Audi e-tron GT<\/b><\/h2>\r\n

The e-Tron GT was still a concept car back then but the production model is coming to our shores this year.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nThe e-Tron GT will be competing with the newly released Porsche Taycan and Tesla Model S in the 4-door performance EV segment. Not many details of the e-Tron GT have been released yet, so we\u2019ll be sitting on the edge of our seats in the meantime. <\/span>\r\n

5. Tesla Model S<\/b><\/h2>\r\n
