All The New Cars Launched At The Singapore Motorshow 2026 – autoapp.sg

The Singapore Motorshow is back for 2026, and here are all the new cars launched at the show that you can expect to see on our roads soon.
The Singapore Motorshow has returned for 2026, and this year’s show is significantly bigger than last year’s, spanning both levels 4 and 6 of the Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre.
As with every edition of the Motorshow, there are a bevy of new models on display that Singaporeans can expect to see plying our roads soon. Given the scale of this year’s show, there are a larger than expected bumper crop of cars that are primed to go on sale either soon or later this year.
Here is our lowdown on all the new cars that were launched at this year’s Singapore Motorshow 2026, listed in alphabetical order.
Aion has made a strong showing in Singapore ever since its debut here in 2024, and its latest model, the UT, is expected to further cement its status as one of Singapore’s best-selling Chinese brands.
The UT is a compact electric hatchback that will compete with the likes of the Dongfeng Box, and it offers cutesy styling with impressive specs and features. With lots of interior room and a large 440-litre boot, the UT feels like a big car in a small package.
Two versions are available, the Standard ($141,888 with COE) and Premium ($145,888 with COE), with both qualifying for COE Cat A with their 134bhp power output. However, the torque figures stand at 145Nm and 210Nm respectively, while range is rated at 335km for the Standard and 410km for the Premium.
Audi has been going on a new product offensive over the past year, and the new Q3 will seek to help the brand maintain its momentum going into 2026.
The third-generation Q3 now sits on Audi’s new Premium Platform Combustion (PPC) architecture, and features a notable move upmarket, with its refreshed design mimicking its larger siblings like the recently-launched Q5 and A6 models.
Power comes from a 1.5-litre mild-hybrid powerplant that produces 148bhp, which should provide for excellent efficiency and cost savings. Pricing starts at $265,999 with COE, which would pit it against its main rival, the BMW X1.
Avatr made a big splash when it arrived last year with its 11, offering ultra-luxury with bold design and impressive features. And now it is ready to wow Singaporeans further with its second model, the 07.
Where the 11 was more of a sleek coupe-SUV, the 07 takes the form of a more conventional SUV, which should translate into slightly more practicality. It still features the same sort of bold design language that makes it stand out though, along with the breathtaking-looking interior with its panoramic display that spans across the dashboard.
Final specs for Singapore are yet to be finalised, but the Avatr 07 is expected to arrive here officially in Q2 2026.
BYD had arguably the biggest stand at the show, and it unveiled no less than four new models to further assert its dominance, and that’s not including those from its premium sub-brands Denza and Yangwang.
Of the four, the ones that have been confirmed for Singapore are the Seal 6 DM-i, which introduces the company’s plug-in hybrid technology onto the Seal 6 that was launched here late last year.
Specs have yet to be finalised, but the Seal 6 DM-i is slated to go on sale very soon in Q1 2026. More intriguingly though, BYD also showcased the station wagon version of the car, which should delight wagon lovers looking for an electric option.
The Shark 6 is BYD’s first pickup model, and its aggressive design is reminiscent of the large trucks that are commonly seen in America, which should appeal to those who are seeking something with a macho image.
It uses a plug-in hybrid powertrain that consists of a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine hooked up to dual electric motors for a combined output of 430hp, which should give it plenty of power for load-lugging.
BYD has not confirmed the Shark 6’s availability for our market as yet, but should it go on sale here, it will likely be the brand’s first commercial vehicle for Singapore.
The other car that BYD previewed at the show is the Tai 7, otherwise known as the Fangchengbao Ti7 in its home market back in China.
The rugged-looking Tai 7 features a Land Rover Defender-esque design, with its blocky styling and similarly chunky-looking interior. Interestingly, the Tai 7 is a range-extender electric vehicle, which means it has a petrol engine that serves as a generator to power up the electric motors if needed, a la Nissan e-Power.
As with the Shark 6, BYD has yet to confirm the Tai 7 for Singapore, although the car was also showcased at last year’s Bangkok Motor Show, so it’s probably only a matter of time before export sales begin.
Over at premium brand Denza’s stand, there is another rugged SUV on show. The Denza B5, which is also another renamed Fangchengbao (this time the Bao 5), and is expected to go on sale here later in Q1 2026.
The B5 will be Denza’s second model for Singapore after the D9 luxury MPV, which has been an unqualified success for the brand, with more than 700 units sold since its launch in 2024. Denza aims to maintain its status as BYD’s luxury premium brand, while continuing to reach out to new segments of customers.
Final specs for the B5 are yet to be finalised, but its plug-in hybrid dual motor drivetrain is said to deliver in excess of 687bhp. Pricing is estimated to come in at around $350,000 with COE.
The other model on display at Denza’s stand is the N9, which is a three-row six-seater luxury SUV that aims to offer families a luxurious option without having to go the MPV route.
The N9 has yet to be confirmed for Singapore, but the car has been selling extremely well back in China, shifting 10,000 units in just two months following its launch last year. The N9 comes in both full EV and PHEV variants, but it remains to be seen which one will be made available for Singapore.
Deepal made its local debut at last year’s Motorshow, and it unveiled its second model, the S05 at this year’s show.
The S05 is one size down from the S07 that was launched last year, and crucially, it will be available with a Cat A COE, which should enhance its competitiveness in a crowded electric SUV market. Like the S07, the S05 is expected to come with a whole host of premium tech features, as well as class-leading space.
Pricing details are yet to be finalised, and the Deepal S05 is expected to go on sale here later some time around March or April this year.
Dongfeng is another Chinese brand that’s on the rise, with its Box going on to becoming the best-selling electric hatchback in Singapore following its launch in 2024. The brand recently launched the 007 sedan late last year, and has now added a third model to its local lineup, the Vigo.
The Dongfeng Vigo is a compact electric SUV that features a chic rugged design that certainly helps it to differentiate itself from the competition. It offers generous interior space and a roomy boot with 500 litres of capacity, while its 132bhp electric powertrain ensures that it comfortably fits into COE Cat A.
Pricing starts at $166,888 with COE, which is extremely competitive, but the car will have no shortage of rivals in the market vying for the attention of Singaporeans and their dollars.
Aside from the Vigo, Dongfeng also showcased a number of other models on its stand, highlighting the brand’s wide variety of cars to cater to almost every segment.
The 008 is a large electric SUV that is either available as a standard five-seater or a three-row six-seater. The car comes with a number of electric drivetrain options with varying power outputs, as well as a range-extender EV version that is claimed to have a driving range of 1,200km.
Dongfeng has yet to announce when the 008 will be officially launched for Singapore, but it is probably only a matter of time before the car goes on sale here, perhaps towards the end of 2026.
M-Hero is Dongfeng’s high-end off-road sub-brand, and it specialises in extremely rugged-looking SUVs that wouldn’t be out of place on an action movie set.
The M-Hero II is the brand’s second model, and underneath its tank-like design is a powerful plug-in hybrid drivetrain that can apparently deliver almost 700bhp. There’s also a version that produces well in excess of 900bhp, but it’s unlikely that we’ll see that in Singapore.
The car is expected to be launched here in the second half of 2026, but final specifications are yet to be confirmed for our market.
Voyah, meanwhile, is Dongfeng’s luxury brand, and the Dream is its flagship MPV offering, going up against the likes of the Denza D9.
Powertrain options include a full EV model with 220bhp, as well as a PHEV variant with 180bhp, and the EV version has a claimed range of 520km on a full charge.
The Dream is likely to be launched here towards the end of the year, with an estimated pricing of around $400,000 with COE
Firefly is officially a sub-brand of Chinese EV maker Nio, and it is expected to be marketed as a mononym, going by a single name (think MINI, before its vast model expansion).
The Firefly is a compact electric hatchback that comes with a Cat A drivetrain that produces 105kW. However, it aims to stand out with its distinctive looks, rear-wheel-drive setup, and premium features.
Pricing for the Firefly starts at $169,999 with COE, which is slightly above several of the other Cat A electric hatchbacks in the market. However, it also indicates its premium positioning in the market, while still remaining competitive enough to attract entry-level buyers.
GWM, or Great Wall Motors, are the parent company of Ora, and the brand opted to take up a space at the Level 1 atrium of Suntec to showcase its new models at the Motorshow.
The main highlight is the Ora 5, which joins the Ora Good Cat in the brand’s local lineup. The Ora 5 is a compact SUV that looks like an upsized version of the Good Cat, and will appeal to those who appreciate the smaller hatchback’s cute looks but prefer something with a bit more space and practicality.
The car is officially only being previewed at Suntec, but it is expected to go on sale in Singapore some time later this year with an expected Cat A powertrain.
GWM also showcased two of its other brands under its stable, with the Haval name probably familiar to regular visitors to China or even Malaysia, where it has been on sale for a while now.
Haval specialises in SUVs, and it showcased its tough-looking V7 at Suntec. Blending classic off-roader design and proportions, the V7, otherwise known as the Raptor in its home market, appeals to those who like a traditional-looking SUV with modern tech.
The Haval brand has been confirmed for Singapore, with an expected arrival date scheduled for the end of the year.
Wey, meanwhile, is GWM’s premium brand, and it presented the G9 at its Suntec showcase, a luxury MPV that faces off with the likes of the GAC E9, alongside the many other Chinese luxury MPVs, in the market.
The car, which is also known as the Gaoshan (High Mountain) in China, features a plug-in hybrid drivetrain that consists of a 1.5-litre turbo engine and two electric motors for a total output of over 400bhp.
GWM are still exploring the possibility of bringing Wey into Singapore, but the car recently went on sale in Malaysia as a CKD model, so its arrival here looks pretty likely.
One of the more interesting launches at the Motorshow was the Honda Super-One, which is a tiny and adorable hatchback that is also Honda’s first EV to be officially sold in Singapore (the Honda e was available as parallel import only).
The Super-One is based on the N-One kei-car, and features interesting styling details like its rounded headlights and sporty-looking blistered wheel arches. The electric drivetrain produces only 94bhp, but its light weight of just 1,092kg should ensure that it will be fun to drive.
Pricing starts at $168,999 with COE, and the Super-One is definitely one of the most interesting electric hatchbacks on sale in Singapore indeed.
The other car that Honda announced at the Motorshow is the ZR-V Hybrid, a model that has been available through parallel importers for a while now.
The ZR-V sits between the HR-V and the CR-V in Honda’s SUV lineup, and is powered by a 2.0-litre hybrid powertrain that produces 143bhp and 186Nm of torque. Standard equipment includes the Honda Sensing suite of driver assistance features, while pricing starts from $235,999 with COE.
Hongqi is dubbed at the Chinese equivalent to Rolls-Royce, and it marked its long-anticipated debut at the Motorshow with three models on display. The only one that will be available for sale though is the E-HS9, an electric SUV that truly ups the luxury ante for Chinese brands.
The E-HS9 features an imposing design that fits with the brand’s image as a high-end flagship, and the interior is decked out with all manner of luxury and tech features to please even the most demanding of customers, many of which are likely to come from the upper echelon of society.
The Hongqi E-HS9 is slated to be officially launched here around April, and it is expected to have a price tag starting from around $500,000 or so.
Hyundai had already offered a special preview of the Ioniq 9 in Singapore at the end of last year, but the Motorshow marked the car’s official launch into our market.
Available in three variants, namely the Standard rear-wheel-drive and Calligraphy dual-motor all-wheel-drive in six and seven-seater variations, the Ioniq 9 brings electric motoring to the large SUV space.
Pricing starts at $306,999 with COE for the Ioniq 9 Standard, going up to $346,999 with COE for the Calligraphy 7-seater, and $352,999 with COE for the Calligraphy 6-seater.
iCaur is a brand under the Chery group that specialises in electric SUVs, and while it is called iCar back in China, the rebrand was necessary in overseas markets due to naming trademark issues.
Regardless, iCaur is headed for Singapore, and its first model to arrive here is the V23. The compact SUV features a rugged and utilitarian design that brings to mind early Jeep Wranglers or Suzuki Jimnys, and comes with a variety of electric drivetrains.
It is quite likely though that the V23 will be offered here with a Cat A-eligible powertrain, and the car has been scheduled for a launch date locally in March.
Jaecoo will add to its J6 and J7 range with the J8, a model that moves the brand slightly towards the premium luxury segment.
The J8 is a large family-oriented SUV that offers seven-seater capability, and the car will be powered by a plug-in hybrid drivetrain that’s similar to the one found in the J7.
A launch date for the J8 has yet to be finalised, but it is expected to arrive here in the coming months.
Kia’s electric expansion continues apace, but the EV4 is arguably its most distinctive offering yet. The car takes the form of a sedan with chunky and unique fastback styling, and it certainly looks like no other electric sedan on the roads. 
That bold design extends to the interior too, with its panoramic integrated display that stretches across the dashboard, and the ‘squircle’ steering wheel that’s certainly interesting to say the least.  Interior space is generous too, thanks to its 2,820mm long wheelbase.
Power comes from a single electric motor that produces 201bhp and 283Nm of torque, and pricing starts from $225,999 including COE.
Following the launch of the C10 late last year, Leapmotor will be adding to its lineup with a couple of new models in the year ahead. The B10 sits just below the C10, and is expected to offer a more affordable option for those who would prefer a smaller car.
Drivetrain details are yet to be confirmed for Singapore, but it is expected to mirror the C10 by offering a Cat A-eligible variant. Pricing is expected to undercut the C10 too, which means a likely price tag of under $160,000 or so with COE.
The Leapmotor C16 meanwhile is a larger and more upmarket model that’s aimed at the premium segment. Essentially an upsized version of the C10, the C16 offers the capability of three-row seating for six passengers.
The C16 is available as either a full EV or a plug-in hybrid, although it is yet to be confirmed which variants will be made available for Singapore. There is the possibility of a Cat A variant, although details have not been finalised for our market.
The highlight of the Lexus stand is the announcement of the new ES, a popular model that has been revitalised for the electric age.
Featuring a new, more streamlined design, the ES has also grown in size, delivering more space and comfort for customers. More significantly though, the ES will be available for the first time as a pure electric model, with the ES 350e featuring a single motor producing 221bhp.
The electric ES 350e is slated to be launched here in Q2, while the regular ES 350h Hybrid, with a 2.5-litre engine with 244bhp, has been earmarked for a Q3 arrival date.
The spiritual successor to the much-loved Mazda 6 sedan, the 6e powers Mazda into the electric age, with its sleek fastback design that bears unmistakably Mazda hallmarks.
Jointly developed with Mazda’s Chinese partner Changan, the 6e’s electric drivetrain produces a handy 245bhp, and has a claimed range of 552km. The car is expected to be officially launched here in the third quarter of 2026, kicking off Mazda’s new era of electrification.
MG continues its product lineup revitalisation with the S6, which takes aim at the strong-selling BYD Sealion 7 in the mid-sized electric SUV segment.
Built on the brand’s Modular Scalable Platform (MSP), which also underpins MG’s other EVs like the S5 and Cyberster, the S6 offers generous space for passengers, as well as an extremely spacious boot with 674 litres on offer.
Its electric motor produces 146bhp, which just about enables it to slot into COE Cat A, while range is rated at 530km on a full charge. Pricing starts from $189,888 with COE, making it an extremely competitive offering in this market.
The latest generation Mercedes-Benz CLA makes a bold leap with its head-turning new design, and for the first time, it will be available with a fully electric version.
The headline figure on the CLA 250+ electric AMG Line Sport is its 808km range, which is the most out of any electric car currently on sale in Singapore. For those who prefer to stick to petrol, there is also the CLA 200 AMG Line, which has a 1.5-litre engine with 163bhp.
Pricing starts at $304,888 with COE for the CLA 200 AMG Line and $312,888 with COE for the CLA 250+ electric AMG Line Sport. But Mercedes-Benz also says that a Cat A version is in the works, and is set to go on sale later in Q1, with an indicative pricing of $261,888 with COE.
With EVs dominating the show floor all over Suntec, the Fairlady Z is a breath of fresh air by being one of the rare new internal combustion models on display, and it is likely to draw the attention of enthusiasts in attendance.
The successor to the long-departed 370Z, the Fairlady Z is powered by a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 that produces a handy 400bhp and 475Nm of torque. The car is slated to be launched here in the last quarter of 2026, with an estimated pricing of around $400,000 or so with COE.
Officially, Proton’s big announcement was a new Cat A version of the e.Mas 7. But they also quietly displayed their smaller e.Mas 5 on their show stand, which is likely to appeal to those looking for an even more affordable option.
Details have not been finalised for Singapore as yet, with the car primed for a launch here in the second half of the year, but the car will definitely put up a good fight in the highly-competitive Cat A EV segment by being attractively priced, if the evidence of the e.Mas 7 is anything to go by.
Subaru’s first EV makes its belated debut in Singapore, and the Solterra looks set to finally shift the brand into the electric era. 
The Solterra XT is actually the facelifted version of the Solterra which was first launched in 2022, but never made it here. Better late than never, and the updated version features dual-electric motors and all-wheel-drive for a total output of 338bhp, and an electric range of 436km.
Pricing starts from $228,800 with COE, which is a decent starting point for an EV boasting the Solterra’s capabilities, although it faces competition from the numerous rival electric SUVs in the market.
Just to underline Subaru’s commitment to electrification, the brand also showcased the e-Outback, its second EV model that is also the spiritual successor to the Outback rugged crossover.
With the Legacy no longer in production, the Outback is now a standalone model in its own right, and the e-Outback offers something for those who want something bigger and more powerful than the Solterra. 
Boasting 375bhp from its dual motor setup, the e-Outback is also the most powerful production Subaru ever, and it can do the 0-100km/h sprint in just 4.4 seconds. Finalised specifications for the e-Outback are yet to be confirmed for Singapore, but the car is set to be launched here in Q2 2026.
Suzuki is another carmaker that is debuting its first electric model at the show, and the e-Vitara brings back an iconic name for the brand. The car is still being finalised for sale here, but it shouldn’t be too long before it makes its official debut.
Slotting right into Cat A with its 144bhp electric drivetrain, the e-Vitara looks set to compete with a whole host of other electric SUVs in an incredibly-crowded segment. To stand out from the rest, the e-Vitara features a sleek yet rugged look, along with a smooth drive and practical technology to suit the modern day urban driver.
Sitting quietly beside the e-Vitara is the Fronx, a compact crossover that appeals to those looking for a fuss-free offering with decent space.
Powered by a 1.5-litre engine with mild hybrid technology, the Fronx produces 102bhp and 138Nm of torque. The highlight of the Fronx is its interior room, with its 1,550mm height and 2,520mm wheelbase translating into plenty of headroom and legroom for passengers
Unfortunately, the Fronx falls under the C2 band of the revised Vehicular Emissions Scheme (VES), which means it incurs a surcharge of $22,500, resulting in a starting price of $177,888 with COE.
Toyota was extremely busy (no pun intended) at the Motorshow, unveiling no less than three new cars, including its first-ever fully electric model.
The BZ4X is effectively the Subaru Solterra’s twin, and like the Solterra, the car on display at the show is the facelifted version of the car first launched in 2022 but never sold here. 
The car will go on sale here later in the first quarter of 2026, but pricing and specs are expected to be roughly similar to the Solterra.
Toyota also unveiled the all-new sixth-generation RAV4, which has been wholly redesigned with more rugged looks, an updated interior, improved drivability, and the introduction of the latest Toyota Safety Sense 4.0 driver assistance systems.
Power comes from a 2.0-litre hybrid powerplant with 230bhp, and the new RAV4 is expected to continue to become one of Toyota’s most popular models locally. The car is currently still undergoing homologation, but it is expected to be officially launched very soon.
Finally, Toyota announced the return of the Vios nameplate to Singapore after an enforced hiatus. The fourth-generation model was dropped from the local lineup in 2022 due to ever more stringent emissions standards.
However, the car has now been updated, and it now comes with a hybrid drivetrain that’s effectively shared with the Yaris Cross Hybrid. This should ensure that it remains competitive in our market, and Toyota claims that the car can deliver a fuel consumption figure of 27km per litre.
Pricing starts at $174,888 with COE, which makes it the most affordable Toyota you can buy officially, making it perfect for those looking for an entry-level and fuss-free hybrid sedan with tried and proven reliability.
Volvo launched not just one but two new electric models at the Motoshow, adding on to the EX30 that was the brand’s first EV to go on sale here in 2024.
The ES90 is a large luxury sedan that has a massive wheelbase of over 3 metres, giving it a limousine-like level of legroom for passengers. The boot also opens up tailgate-style, giving the ES90 a very sleek design that’s also aerodynamic.
Two variants are available, the Plus and Ultra, with the difference between the two being mainly in features. Both are powered by a single electric motor that produces 333bhp and 480Nm of torque, and delivers a very impressive range of 661km. For now, only the ES90 Ultra has been priced, starting at $410,000 with COE.
The other EV that Volvo unveiled at the Motorshow is the EX90, which is essentially an electrified alternative to its popular XC90 large SUV.
Like the ES90, the EX90 is available in two variants, Plus and Ultra. However, for the EX90, they each come with differing drivetrains, with the former boasting a single motor setup with 333bhp, and the latter featuring dual motors and all-wheel-drive for a total output of 456bhp.
Pricing start at $435,000 with COE for the EX90 Plus, while the EX90 Ultra is going for $505,000 with COE as it falls under Band B of the revised VES for this year.
Yangwang brought its dancing U9 supercar to the Motorshow last year, and this time round it is showcasing the U8 SUV, which will be performing its fancy ‘Tank Turn’ trick by rotating on the spot to delight show-goers.
With over 1,000bhp on tap, the U8 will undoubtedly be one of the most powerful cars to go on public sale here, and expect a price tag that will be equally hefty, with estimates of at least $600,000 with COE.
The U8 is currently undergoing homologation, so it doesn’t have a confirmed launch date for Singapore yet, although it is expected to arrive here by the end of this year. 
One that’s not quite due for this year, the Zeekr 9X is an ultra-luxury electric SUV that looks like it could be more than a match for the Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
The 9X is also Zeekr’s first plug-in hybrid, featuring a 2.0-litre engine matched to two electric motors, delivering a power output of an astonishing 1,400bhp. Despite weighing over 3 tonnes, the car is said to be able to go from 0-100km/h in around 3 seconds.
Scheduled to arrive here in early 2027, the 9X will take its place as the flagship of the Zeekr lineup, and is expected to cost upwards of at least $500,000 with COE.
