There is no denying that the automotive business landscape is changing and the last couple of years have seen a seismic shift. Over the course of the last decade, electrically powered vehicles have gone from environmentally-focused innovations to progressively ubiquitous machines being offered across every automotive and motorsport sector. Between now and 2025, dozens of electrified coupes, sedans, crossovers, SUVs and supercars are scheduled to hit the market. With increasing considerations concerning emissions and air quality, the supercar area unit is the new celestial point in today’s automotive landscape. Today, the advancement in supercars comes at a blistering pace. With some absolutely astonishing machines on the horizon, below are the most anticipated supercars that are planned to hit the road in future.

Powered by a Rimac produced powertrain, the all-electric Battista is Automobili Pininfarina’s first in-house model with 1696 lb-ft of torque and 1,900hp electric motors expected to make one of the most powerful Italian production cars ever built. The Battista can sprint from  0-62mph in under two seconds. Based on pure-electric hardware from Rimac, the Battista will distinguish itself from all the other high-priced, high-performance zero-emission supercars by being hand-finished in Italy, with the customer having significant input into its look and feel.

The car uses a carbon fibre monocoque, with the batteries housed behind the occupants and along the sides in a T format. Being shown in three specifications at the 2019 Geneva motor show, Automobili Pininfarina plans to produce 150 examples of the Battista supercar aimed at left-hand-drive markets. The all-electric supercar will go on sale in international markets in early 2022.

2. Tesla Roadster

The second-generation Tesla Roadster is expected to finally go into production in 2022 and will reportedly make use of lightweight lithium-ion batteries along with Tesla's plaid powertrain. The new Roadster model leads its predecessor by adding vitally more driving range, two small rear seats, and a much higher level of performance. The car features 0-60 mph time of 1.9 seconds, 0-100 mph in 4.2 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 8.8 seconds and a top speed of over 250 mph, quicker than the average Formula 1 car putting it in the realm of the fastest production cars on the planet. Giving it all-wheel-drive capability, the second-generation Roadster will use three electric motors, one in the front and two in the back. The Roadster concept uses a large touchscreen extended from the top of the dash to the centre console, with a cubby underneath it for storage and a removable glass-panel roof. Also, the 200-kWh battery is said to provide up to 620 miles of range, making the next-gen Roadster leaps and bounds ahead of any other electric car out there.

The Evija, pronounced ‘E-vi-ya’, will be Lotus’s first new model launch under Geely ownership, aiming to push the boundaries of modern supercar technology. The car has four electric motors, one dedicated to each wheel and packs a 1,972-horsepower punch. It can go from 0 to 60 miles in under 3 seconds and will have a top speed of over 200 miles per hour. The vehicle is equipped with technology that is designed to make its battery charge as quickly as getting a fill-up at the gas pump. It gets an 80% charge in just 12 minutes while a full charge takes mere 18 minutes.

The car's light curb weight is meant to optimize handling. The company claims the Evija weighs just over 3700 pounds, making it purportedly the lightest EV supercar ever to enter production. It seats two passengers, and its cabin is accessed through a pair of dihedral doors. There's a digital display in front of the steering wheel that provides the driver with germane information like battery charge and remaining range.

4. Estrema Fulminea
