Although downgrading to an older version of npm works, I would not recommend that because they updated it for a reason.

The new version can have included critical patches to security holes, or they can have included new or enhanced features.

So, here is my solution:
Notice what angular says:

npm ERR! Could not resolve dependency:
npm ERR! peer jasmine-core@">=3.7.1" from [email protected]

So, you need to open your package.json file and change jasmine-core version from 3.6.0 to 3.7.1 which is the version that angular angular found in [email protected].

Then delete the package-lock.json file and run npm install.

Update (Angular 12.0.0)

Just a few hours after my answer, Angular 12 was released - which works perfectly with NPM 7.13.0.

Original answer (Angular 11.2.11)

Which NPM version are you using?

I just faced the same problem using version 7.10.0. After downgrading to 6.14.13, ng new worked as expected.

npm i -g [email protected]

Currently, this seems to be the best solution if you want to create an Angular project. However, the respective Issue on GitHub has already been closed. So I expect the next Angular release to also work with the latest NPM version.

I hope I could help you.
