(Reuters) - Prominent global automakers showcased their latest models at the Munich car show, including new EVs and lower-cost vehicles, as Europe's auto sector faces crises ranging from tariff hikes to rising costs and rivalry with Chinese firms on their home turf.

Here are the announcements by some of the companies:

BMW

BMW said its iX3, the first model in its all-electric Neue Klasse series which was launched earlier in September, will be sold in Europe from March 2026 at a price of 68,900 euros ($80,700).

It is monitoring its highly competitive China market in terms of pricing ahead of launching the iX3 there next year.

STELLANTIS ( STLA )

Franco-Italian carmaker Stellantis ( STLA ) will no longer exclusively produce EVs as part of its target through 2030, Jean-Philippe Imparato, head of enlarged Europe and European brands, said.

Imparato said EU carbon emissions targets for 2035 were no longer achievable for any carmaker, supporting Stellantis' ( STLA ) decision not to restrict production just to EVs. 

LEAPMOTOR

Chinese EV maker Leapmotor unveiled the B05, a new hatchback described by CEO Zhu Jiangming as a sporty coupe, as competition heats up for affordable electric models.

The B05 will be delivered in Europe from the second quarter of 2026 after its launch in China later this year, and will come in six colours. Pricing was not disclosed.

TOGG

The Turkish EV startup unveiled a new sedan as it launched sales in Europe starting with Germany. Togg announced the European launch of its T10X electric SUV, and unveiled the T10F, an electric five-door sedan.

Orders for both vehicles will start in Germany at the end of September and pricing details were not disclosed.

GAC

China's Guangzhou Automobile Group (GAC) launched its Aion V electric SUV and said it would be sold in Poland, Portugal and Finland from this month, with more European markets to follow. The SUV will start at just under 36,000 euros.

Next year, GAC will start selling the Aion UT, an electric crossover.
