Many more EVs are on the way considering BMW has already announced zero-emissions versions of the next-generation 5 Series and 7 Series.

The next wave of EVs will kick off in 2025 with the rebirth of the Neue Klasse, an electric-focused platform said to be inaugurated by a 3 Series EV separate from the conventionally powered model.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from ICE-less BMWs, plans are in motion for high-performance M models equipped with a plug-in hybrid powertrain.
