Visions of the future in television, movies and books have predicted that at some point, flying cars will be a reality. That future is still light years away, but you can still get some trailblazing vehicles starting in 2026. Just make sure you are saving up now so you can be among the first behind the wheel next year.
Here are six cars worth saving your money until next year to buy, according to a sneak peek of what’s in store in 2026 from Car and Driver.
2025 Jeep Recon EV
This car of the future is one that comes early, with the 2025 Jeep Recon EV debuting later this year. Details such as the starting price, driving range, battery size and power output have yet to be released, but expect to pay between $60,000 and $80,000 to get behind this advancement in EV driving capabilities.
2025 Chevy Corvette SUV
Another early special set to hit the market later this year is the 2025 Chevy Corvette SUV. That’s right, Chevy has found a symbiosis between their classic Corvette and a sports utility vehicle. This mashup is certain to turn heads, and come with a price tag ranging from $60,000 to $80,000.
2026 Ford Mustang Raptor
There has never been a Mustang like the Raptor, a car that feels like it is simultaneously a throwback to the past and ahead of its time. Sure to be a one of a kind car, for better or worse, the limited-run production is set to roll out early next year for an estimated $90,000.
2026 Kia Telluride
Last year, Kia sold 115,504 Tellurides in the United States, so it only makes sense they would follow up that success with the 2026 model. While the manufacturer plans to keep everything drivers love about the Telluride, the new feature of a newly available hybrid powertrain is surely to set the price range at the low end of $60,000.
2026 Rivian R2
Next year, Rivian is planning to release a sports utility vehicle that hones in on one key feature: comfortable driving on a range of 300 miles or more. Drivers of the latest R2 can select one of three powertrains for their on-road experience: single-motor rear-wheel-drive, dual-motor all-wheel-drive, and a performance-focused tri-motor all-wheel-drive setup. Expect all that for under $50,000 when the SUV hits the market sometime in 2026.
2027 Toyota MR2
Toyota is known as an industry innovator, which is why hopes are high for the 2027 MR2, a mid-engine two-seater that is rumored to be electric and planned to be released some time in 2026. While the MR2 comes with all the bells and whistles you’d want in a sports car, it is estimated to debut for under $60,000.
