Mazda's dropping the CX-6e as its EV counterpart to the CX-60, signaling a harder design pivot than the brand's typical playbook. The tech-forward cabin—anchored by a 26-inch display—hints at where Mazda wants to position itself in the crowded electric SUV space. UK launch this year puts it squarely against Audi's Q6 e-tron.

Zeekr is bringing its 7GT station wagon to Europe, banking on a formula that's proven in China: practical proportions, clean design, and competitive pricing. The wagon segment is starving for alternatives in Europe, and a Volvo-adjacent player with real engineering backing might actually fill that gap. Don't sleep on Chinese manufacturers who've spent a decade perfecting execution.

Tesla's volume leader still dominates European EV sales, but the gap is narrowing fast as real competition arrives. New entry-level variants chase affordability while the market fragments around them. When a single model can't keep the crown, you know the segment has matured.
