Already in 2022, several completely new electric vehicles from the affordable price segment will enter the American market at once.
Specifically, Nissan is planning an Ariya e-SUV. Chevrolet has an all-electric Silverado, Blazer and Equinox. Ford is preparing to sell the F-150 Lightning. However, pickup trucks of longtime competitors are likely to be expensive.
Electric crossover cousins Subaru Solterra and Toyota bZ4X are also expected in the US in 2022. Their price is not yet known.
