Part 1 of CarBuyer Singapore’s guide to new cars coming to Singapore from each brand in 2023

SINGAPORE

It’s that time of the year again, and CarBuyer Singapore has rounded up all the new cars that will make their way here in 2023. We are rolling them out in alphabetical order, and as usual, start with the ABCs.

As always, the cars are officially-imported versions and do not include parallel imports. Information here is collated from official sources too, and launch dates are subject to change. Prices shown are including COE, unless stated, and all prices are our own estimates unless specifically stated.

Alpine

Alpine A110

Variants: Alpine A110 R
When: TBC
How much: TBC

Alpine’s impressive A110 has been given another new variant, the A110 R. As previously reported, the ‘R’ stands for Radical, and the coupe is a stripped-out, lightweight sports car designed for track use. It uses the same 1.8-litre turbo four-cylinder base engine as the A110 S, but not with a lighter chassis and 300hp, the A110 R rockets from 0 to 100km/h in 3.9 seconds, which is 0.3 seconds faster than the A110 S. The talk is that the A110 R is an indent-only special for Singapore.

Aston Martin

Aston Martin Valhalla

Variants: 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, PHEV
When: TBC
How much: S$3.8m (estimated)

Aston Martin’s highly awaited PHEV supercar (or hypercar, depending on how much you like pigeonholing genres with hyperbole) is making its arriving in Singapore this year. There will be just 999 examples built worldwide. The twin-turbo V8 sourced from Mercedes-AMG and electric motors combine to give the car a power output of more than 900hp.

Audi

Audi Q4 e-tron

Variants: TBC
When: TBC
How much: TBC

The smallest EV SUV within Audi’s range. the Q4 e-tron is set for a launch in Singapore sometime in 2023. After a bunch of slightly jumbled model names that tell us little about the size of the car like the E-Tron S Sportback, E-Tron Sportback 50 and E-Tron GT, Audi appears to be returning to its standard ‘Q’ and ‘A’ model naming convention with this and the upcoming Q8 E-Tron.

Q8 e-tron

Variants: 50 & 55 SUV, 50 & 55 Sportback
When: Late Q2
How much: TBC

The Audi e-tron SUV and Sportback range has been updated and rechristened. Where it was formerly called the e-tron 50/55/S (depending on its derivative), it’s now called the Q8 e-tron. All models in the range see increased battery sizes, improved EV drivetrain tech and lower drag coefficients across the board. 

Audi RS6 Performance

Variants: Performance
When: Late Q2
How much: TBC

Audi RS7 Performance

Variants: Performance
Estimated Launch Date: Late Q2
How much: TBC

Audi’s RS6 Avant and RS7 Sportback models aren’t what you’d call slow. They’re quick, but clearly Audi has decided that they can be quicker. The “Performance” suffix in the new RS6 and RS7 performance grants both cars a 30 horsepower and 50Nm torque bump, which Audi says allows both cars to hit 100km/h from a standing start in 3.4 seconds.
