Mitsubishi is an odd company. As it stands, Mitsubishi's claim to fame is making inexpensive cars; the age of the sporty Eclipse coupe and rally-inspired Lancer is long gone. For years, the Mirage was least expensive new car you could buy.

It's a two-door electric pickup with a short bed and apparently hundreds of different ways to customize it. According to Slate, it can be outfitted to fill whatever role you want it to and can even be converted into a tiny SUV via an optional kit.

Subaru has a new EV in the form of the 2026 Trailseeker. Aesthetically, it looks kind of like an older body style Subaru Outback if it was designed for space travel. Specs-wise, it's powered by two electric motors that put out a pretty stout 375 horsepower, and it can tow 3,500 pounds, putting it right in line with the aforementioned Outback. The battery has a capacity of 74.7 kWh from which Subaru predicts a range of 260 miles.

The 2026 Subaru Outback is here and it's certainly something different. The new Outback is still definably a Subaru. It has a boxer engine, a ton of safety oriented features, all wheel drive, and it's a tall wagon and/or SUV-shaped thing. The shape, really, is the biggest change for the 2026 model year, which serves as the first year of the seventh generation of Outback, and the 30th anniversary of the model altogether.

Audi has launched the newest iteration of the venerable A6 sedan for the 2026 model year, with several refinements and tweaks over the previous model. It claims to be one of the most aerodynamic gas-powered Audi's ever, and one of the quietest. In a press release, Audi said that every A6 with 19-inch or larger wheels gets fitted with noise absorbing materials inside the tire; pair that with a claimed 30% noise reduction and you have a serene business sedan.
