Aehra Sedan Concept Previews Porsche Taycan Rival Expected In 2026

Italy's Aehra, an EV startup that focuses on ultra premium electric cars, has today revealed the exterior design of its second model, the Sedan.

Unveiled at the Milano Monza Motor Show in concept form, the Aehra Sedan is based on the same EV platform as the Aehra SUV that was first shown last year. Actually, the two models were conceived in tandem, and that's pretty obvious when looking at them side by side.

The Sedan shares the same design language and body surface treatment as the Aehra SUV, but it's obviously lower and features distinct front and rear ends. 

Highlights include the clean side profile with an uninterrupted fluid line and no visible door handles, the aggressive front end with sleek headlights and sculpted front bumper that includes active aero and cooling elements, and the tapered rear end with razor-sharp LED taillights. The double-falcon doors that open upwards and the aero-optimized digital side mirrors are also hard to ignore.

The company continues to keep the interior a secret, but it shouldn't be too different from the SUV's high-tech cabin that features a screen as wide as the windshield that partially retracts in the dashboard.

Aehra was not that generous with powertrain details either, noting that the Sedan features a bespoke battery solution developed in partnership with Miba Battery Systems, which should enable a targeted range just shy of 500 miles (800 kilometers).

However, according to an earlier report from Autocar, the Sedan will get the same 800-horsepower tri-motor AWD powertrain from the SUV and a 120-kilowatt-hour battery pack.

We also learn from the press release that the Aehra Sedan uses  "ultra-advanced, exceptionally light, highly sustainable composite materials" that are typically used on supercars and hypercars, including forged carbon fiber technologies.

All this sounds great and the car looks stunning, but will it really happen? We obviously don't have an answer to this question, but Aehra says it has "substantial private funding in place" that will allow it to start delivering the Sedan and SUV to customers in North America and Europe by 2026. It's worth noting that's one-year delay from the initial target of 2025.

The luxury EVs will become available later on in China and the Gulf States. As for pricing, the electric luxury sedan is expected to start around $170,000 (160,000 euros), which would make it a rival for the Porsche Taycan Turbo.

Aehra's design boss Filippo Perini, who used to work for Lamborghini in the past overseeing the design of iconic models such as the Murcielago, Aventador, Huracan, Centenario, and Urus, said the production version of the Sedan will look virtually identical to what you see in the gallery above. Fingers crossed for that.
