6. Bentley Mulsanne
This 1980s Bentley Mulsanne also became an EV thanks to Hoffman. Possibly a good thing for a notoriously unreliable period in Bentley’s history.

Everyone loves the old Volkswagen bus, so what if there were a new electric version? At least that fits with the original’s hippie ideology. We’ll see if it’s a hit when it releases this year.
10. Hyundai N Vision 74
This incredible looking concept is based on Hyundai’s 1974 Pony coupe concept, and intends to run on a combination of electric and hydrogen power. It is set to hit production in 2026. Yes please.
