Thankfully, 2021 is looking promising with many new models hitting the roads this year. So, here are our most anticipated car releases of 2021:
Hyundai Tucson
The second-generation Hyundai Tucson is planned for the first half of the year with a flagship line scheduled for some time in the future. This hybrid power model has a 2.5-litre petrol engine with electrified power built in for self-charging. For lovers of the Toyota Rav-4, the Tucson range is looking to become a significant competitor in the coming years.
Toyota Kluger
This long-awaited seven-seater is being released as a new hybrid option in Toyota’s arsenal. It’s available in either a V6 or four-cylinder engine with a self-charging component. This new model has taken nearly two years to hit Australia’s shores after being released in 2019, but older models have been well-loved in the suburban areas where more space is needed.
Volkswagen Golf GTI
This year’s Golf will be released in its GTI format with a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine. The sought after five-door hatchback comes with a host of upgrades such as a new vehicle dynamics system to centralise handling. No matter how many Golf versions are released, people are always waiting to snap up these new models as they hit showrooms.
Hyundai i20 N
The Korean brand is launching its new N model this year, and it’s lighter and zippier than its i30 counterpart. Built for winding roads and car enthusiasts it only comes in a manual version. Early reports say that the car has definite oomph and excellent handling. This hot hatch will be in direct competition with other small hatches from Ford and Toyota.
