These cars have been discontinued for 2025

We’re already deeply into the discovery phase of the 2025 model year. With it, as usual, have come a stellar crop of new vehicles—everything from the high and mighty Chevy Corvette ZR1 to the cheeky, efficient Honda Civic Hybrid.

But on the sadder end of the spectrum, we’re tallying the list of vehicles that didn’t make the cut—the cars, trucks, SUVs, and EVs/hybrids that won’t return for another act.

Before they’re long gone and long forgotten, it’s time to look back at the crop of vehicles that you won’t be able to buy next year, and to offer some condolences—and some good-riddances.

2024 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio Super Sport

Alfa Stelvio Quadrifoglio and Giulia Quadrifoglio

Stick with us because things get complicated. For 2025 there will be no Audi A5 coupe or convertible. Those cars go away, but the A5 will persist as a redesigned, rebadged version of the A4—which will give its name over to an electric vehicle, perhaps, as Audi recasts its naming system. In Audi’s future, even numbers in model names will apply to EVs, with the odds on ICEs. The transition will be lumpy. Buckle up.

 

Chevrolet Camaro

Chevrolet Malibu

 

Jaguar E-Pace, I-Pace, XE, XF, and F-Type

It’s a bloodletting in Coventry. Jaguar has said it will pivot to an all-electric lineup—and in doing so will dump its only existing electric vehicle as well as every other vehicle it sells in the U.S. save for the sporty, slick-handling F-Pace crossover SUV. Wave goodbye to the E-Pace, I-Pace, XE, XF, and F-Type—and wait for Jaguar to confirm what’s next, because nothing seems to be set in stone.

 

 

Kia Forte (in name only)

Look for a revamped Forte in 2025—just look for it under its new sobriquet of K4.

 

Maserati Ghibli

With a rear-drive platform and an engine built by Ferrari, the Ghibli sedan seemed like an easy bet. It never caught the attention it needed to thrive, despite a big-dollar Super Bowl ad with Quvenzhané Wallis. It went too far downmarket too fast, and now Maserati has realized the future lies in gorgeous two-door EV convertibles and slick midsize SUVs like the GranTurismo and Grecale.

 

Mitsubishi Mirage

Last year we pegged the Mirage for a disappearing act; as it turned out, it had a reprise left in it. But come 2025 it’ll be no more, like the Chevy Spark and Kia Rio before it. It used to be the cheapest car sold in the U.S.; we’re curious how used prices will hold up as new-car prices stay sky-high.

 

Nissan Titan

Nissan Versa

Build more crossovers, they said—and Nissan did. Those crossovers sold so well, it made even inexpensive and nifty efforts like the Versa a hard sell. We said it “looks, feels, and drives nicer than its price.” We were right, but you’re not wrong for wanting something more like the similarly priced Nissan Kicks, with more room and not much less efficiency. It just goes to show: you can be frugal, well-equipped, and likely a better buy than used cars—and still a sales asterisk.

Toyota Venza

The Venza deserved more respect than it ever got in its two unrelated renditions. The first generation model had ample size, a sleek shape, and great reliability; the latest edition went hybrid-only before that became chic, and muted the related RAV4’s graunchy drive noises and sported a much nicer cabin. The Venza’s fit and finish were worthy of Lexus—but its size and price made for little else that compelled drivers to buy one. In its final model year it scored a TCC Rating of 7.2 out of 10—the highest-rated of all the vehicles that won’t survive another year.
