2025 Los Angeles Auto Show: Everything You Missed

Key Point

• The 2025 Los Angeles Auto show didn’t have as many big reveals as previous editions, but new vehicles from Chevrolet, Honda, Hyundai, Jeep, Kia, Lucid and Nissan give show goers plenty to see.

The 2025 Los Angeles Auto Show didn’t have as many big reveals as in past editions, but that doesn’t mean there weren’t some notable introductions of new or heavily updated existing models. From off-road-focused vehicles to all-electrics, hybrids and everything in between, the show had a bit of something for everyone.

Jeep Delivers Power and Efficiency

Jeep probably had the most new or updated models on hand from any brand at the show. The biggest intro was Jeep’s second EV, the Recon. Riding on the same platform as the Wagoneer S, the Recon is a legit electric off-roader in the strictest Jeep sense. Boasting the brand’s signature Trail Rating, the Recon comes equipped to leave the pavement with a full-time four-wheel-drive system, locking rear differential and automatic disconnects for each wheel, as well as full underbody protection. Power comes from a dual-motor setup with a whopping total of 650 horsepower. With a 100-kilowatt-hour battery pack, Jeep says the Recon should get up to 230 miles of range on a charge; a 250-mile range version will come at a later date. Pricing is expected to start at $66,995 (all prices include destination).

Jeep’s biggest SUV, the Grand Wagoneer, has received a heavy update for the 2026 model year. In addition to new styling that takes after the Wagoneer S, Jeep is giving the Grand Wagoneer a class-exclusive range-extending EV powertrain. Consisting of parent automaker Stellantis’ 3.6-liter V-6 engine paired with a 130-kilowatt on-board generator, the Grand Wagoneer REEV makes 647 hp and is expected to deliver up to 500 miles of driving range. Jeep says the ‘26 Grand Wagoneer is set to go on sale sometime in 2026.

The Grand Cherokee has received an update, as well. While styling has been updated, the big news is under the hood: Stellantis has thrown in a version of its Hurricane engine, this time as a turbocharged four-cylinder that puts out 324 hp. If you’re still in the market for a Grand Cherokee with a V-6, you’re in luck as the 3.6-liter V-6 engine sticks around — but only in lower trims. There’s no word on pricing for the 2026 Grand Cherokee just yet, but it’s expected to go on sale late in 2025.

Honda Gives Pilot a Light Nip-Tuck

Honda has updated its Pilot SUV for 2026. The biggest styling changes can be found upfront, where it gets a new grille; the off-road-focused TrailSport trim also gets exclusive rear styling, orange trimmed badges and beefier underbody skid plates. Inside, there are larger displays for both the driver and infotainment touchscreen.

Lucid Gravity Gets Cheaper … Sort Of

Lucid is known for making premium EVs, and that 1-percenter premium includes its newest offering, the Gravity SUV, whose launch trim was well over six figures. That changes with the introduction of the cheaper Gravity Touring. Its $81,550 starting price still isn’t cheap, but it’s over $15,000 cheaper than the higher Grand Touring trim. Aside from the price, the biggest differences with the Touring are found in the powertrain and towing specs.

Kia Telluride Receives Major Glow-Up

Kia had a hit on its hands when the first-generation Telluride debuted for the 2020 model year. Demand was so high when it debuted that Kia’s factories literally had trouble keeping up. And from the looks of the all-new Telluride, the brand may have another huge hit on its hands. Its new exterior styling is more rugged and up to date, and there’s even a touch of Land Rover Range Rover in the rear. The interior has been heavily redesigned, with dual 12.3-inch displays for the dash and a slightly roomier third row. More of a headline is that Kia has replaced the old 3.8-liter V-6 with two new powertrains: a turbocharged four-cylinder or a hybrid that can deliver up to 35 mpg combined. For the outdoorsy buyer, there’s also the new rugged X-Pro trim with 9.1 inches of ground clearance, a locking center differential and all-terrain tires. There’s no word on pricing just yet, but Kia says the Telluride is set to go on sale in the first quarter of 2026.

Nissan Goes Rogue With Rogue PHEV

Nissan has introduced a head scratcher for 2026. On the surface, the all-new Rogue Plug-in Hybrid is an SUV that’s needed in the automaker’s lineup (and the overall market). But Nissan went about it in a strange way: It partnered with Mitsubishi in development of the second-generation Rogue, which Mitsubishi turned into an all-new generation of its Outlander SUV. With this new Outlander, Mitsubishi also introduced a second generation of its Outlander Plug-in Hybrid, to which Nissan said “Let us use it,” and that’s how the Rogue Plug-in Hybrid was born. Basically just a rebadged Outlander PHEV, it gets 38 miles of all-electric driving range and up to 420 miles total in combined driving range. We’re not sure why Nissan didn’t just drop the Outlander PHEV’s powertrain into the gas-only Rogue, but we’ll reserve final judgment for when we’re able to get our hands on it. Nissan says the Rogue Plug-in Hybrid should reach dealers in early 2026.

Hyundai’s Super Electric Performance Sedan

Hyundai is bringing its performance know-how to another one of its EVs in the all-new Ioniq 6 N. The Ioniq 6 N improves on the same formula that made the Ioniq 5 N punch far above its weight class. That means you’ll find things like the same customizable driver mode settings, as well as the same 641-hp electric powertrain, which is enough to get the Ioniq 6 N to 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds. If you’re excitedly getting your checkbook ready to head down to the dealership, you may wait to hold on: Hyundai isn’t talking pricing or release date just yet, though we expect the Ioniq 6 N to go on sale sometime in 2026.

Chevrolet Gives Market the Cheap EV It Deserves

EV fans can rejoice as Chevy has brought back the Bolt for 2027 after being absent the last few model years. While it’s largely the same stylewise, Chevy has updated the Bolt in the three places that matter most: charging, price and range. The brand says the Bolt can now go 255 miles on a charge and that it can charge faster now, with charging speeds that are 2.5 times faster than the old Bolt’s (though it still lags behind competitors like the Nissan Leaf). This means it can charge from 10%-80% in just 26 minutes. Most important is the price: In this era of ever-increasing EV prices, the Bolt’s $29,990 starting price is refreshing. Even better is knowing Chevy is planning a cheaper LT trim that’ll come later with a claimed starting price of $28,995. The 2027 Bolt is expected to arrive at dealers in the first quarter of 2026.
