Lots of new EVs being released in different variants. If we’d see Toyota EVs before other cars, the Prius 24 Le Mans Centennial GR Edition Concept looks like a shoo-in.

still hate how we can't use an EV in custom races without it being a one make race 😭😭

they seriously gotta change that. how can I select EVs to race as opponents, but not be in one myself??

Genesis(Hyundai) making a big push with their upper brand vehicles. What of up To date Hyundai vehicles?
They’ve got a strong line up of performance cars.


With the AFEELA joining the car list, it’s probably time for the Ioniq 5 N to chime in.
It would be pretty cool to have those “engine” sounds replicated to add some spice to the EV experience.

I don't know if I'm just missing something about what gets a car on this list, but these three aren't EVs.

Dagnabbit! I was adding and correcting and some cars didn’t edit. Then, I was adding cars one by one and saving. Thanks for pointing it out. 👍

It’ll be interesting if Hyundai add more EVs from their stable that are fun.


I’ve posted this more about changing the perception of EVs for old heads than for young enthusiasts. In a game, it’s not doing much for the real world environment. Also, with some manufacturers changing their line ups and not scrapping ICE completely as they were before. Hyundai’s approach is still to give drivers alternatives and that doesn’t mean having EVs that are boring to some car enthusiasts.
 
Aside from a Formula E racer - such as the Jaguar I-Type 7 - there are a few other EVs I’d wanna see, and I will say the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N was among them. I also mentioned earlier in this thread about how I wanted to see the first-generation Tesla Roadster, but there’s also the Jaguar I-Pace which has a real-world one-make, as well as the incredibly beautiful Pininfarina Battista. Finally, I cannot deny the popularity of the Ford Mustang Mach E, so I think that’d be worth adding to the series as well.

Other than these, every other car I’d want to see debut (or return) to GT is either a pure ICE, a HEV, or PHEV.

EDIT: I think it’d also be very cool to see a hybrid version of the Jaguar VGT SV, if only so it could compete in Gr.1. Though I understand how the SV being a pure EV makes sense considering Jaguar’s focus on those, especially with the aforementioned I-Pace one-make series. I even hear Jaguar is one of the more successful teams in Formula E, too, alongside Nissan.

The Mitsubishi i-MiEV is also missing from the OP list 😅 Loved it in GT6 and been hoping for a return ever since it wasn’t included in GTsport… Hopefully it’ll return in GT7, there’s still time… sure it’s probably the slowest ev in the game, but good racing doesn’t necessarily have to be fast right…?

With GT7’s (visual) tuning options, it could be made to look quite cool, widebody, wider wheels, nice wing, rollcage etc. etc. 😅 Hopefully PD will add some tuning options to actually improve the performance a bit, faster motor, more powerful battery etc.

This is mine from back in the GT6 days :)
