Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio
The high-performance variant of Alfa Romeo's first SUV bows out in 2025, taking with it one of the most characterful engines in the luxury SUV segment. The Stelvio Quadrifoglio's Ferrari-derived 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6, producing 505 horsepower, made it a unique option in the luxury SUV segment of the market.
Its departure is undoubtedly tied to Alfa Romeo's commitment to full electrification, as customers shy away from their usual preference for gas-guzzling behemoths.
Chevrolet Camaro
After six generations and 57 years in counting, the Chevrolet Camaro ended its production run in 2024. This American muscle car icon had been a cornerstone of muscle car culture since 1967, going head-to-head against other prolific performance cars, like the Ford Mustang, throughout its lifetime.
The final sixth-generation model, with its range of powerful engines from the turbo four-cylinder to the supercharged V8 in the ZL1, marks the end of an era in American performance cars.
Audi A5 Coupe
The Audi A5 Coupe exits the market as another casualty of declining coupe sales. Known for its elegant design, luxurious interior, and balanced performance, the A5 Coupe was a fun offering in the A5 lineup.
Its departure reflects the broader industry trend away from two-door luxury vehicles, with Audi focusing its resources on electric vehicles and more popular body styles.
Jaguar F-Type
The F-Type's discontinuation marks the end of Jaguar's pure internal combustion sports cars. As the spiritual successor to the legendary E-Type, the F-Type combined traditional British sports car values with modern performance.
Its supercharged V8 engine and distinctive design made it one of the most appealing cars in its class. However, Jaguar's focus on the E-Type in 2025 spells a new era in the luxury sports car segment.
Mitsubishi Mirage
The Mirage's departure removes one of the most affordable new cars from the U.S. market. Despite its basic nature and modest performance, it served as an important entry-level option for budget-conscious buyers seeking new-car warranty coverage and modern safety features.
The discontinuation of the Mirage reflects the challenges of profitably selling small, affordable cars in a market increasingly dominated by larger, more expensive vehicles.
