2022 is jammed with promising new metal: here’s what you need to know

01

Lotus Emira (& Evija)

The final petrol-powered Lotus launches this year – but it promises to send pistons out with, well, a bang. The Emira is a supercar lookalike for sports car money, and is off to a flier by being so much prettier than Porsche’s ageing Cayman. Then there are the powertrain choices: first up a supercharged V6 manual, to be followed by an AMG-spec four-cylinder turbo. Lotus is on course for a massive 2022, with the new Emira being bolstered by the delivery of the Evija electric hypercar and progress being made on the company’s first foray into crossover SUVs. If it can turn the family Lotus into a cash-printer like Lamborghini did with the Urus, the future of one of the all-time great British car marques could be secure at last.

02

BMW M3 Touring

At bloody last, BMW’s going to build an M3 with a big boot. And like the trolls they are, BMW has only got around to doing it with the most controversial generation of M3 ever. Those grilles. The automatic gearbox. In the UK, the Touring is likely to be xDrive AWD only, and with the bigger tail-end, perilously close to the wrong side of two tonnes. But with 503bhp, it’ll still have the poke to terrify your pure-bred pet.

03

Citroën C5X

Not every interesting car inbound this year is A Fast One. Look: comfy big Citroens are back! Welcome to the only crossover Top Gear is mildly bothered about in 2022: the C5X. Instead of going retro to reinvent the likes of the DS or the SM, Citroen’s new flagship is a sort of high-riding estate available with plug-in hybrid power and seats said to be as squishy as a posh mattress. We’ll report back when we’ve had a drive and a nap later in the year.
