For anyone who is truly a car enthusiast the next year and a half are going to be a very exciting time in the world of cars, trucks and SUV’s. From advanced technology that offers better than every safety for the family vehicles to the massively aggressive nature of the new lineups of high performance super cars the cars coming off the lines for the next two model years will offer excitement, advanced technology and in the trucks and SUV’s better fuel mileage and steering than ever before.
This car will most likely be slated as a 2016 model, but will be offered for sales at the end of 2015. This car will come in ready to tear up the pavement as a high-performance beast, but also be set up with a hybrid powertrain that rids the hybrids of the mantra of only being fuel conscious but in this case also performance laden. Equipped with a twin-turbo V6 and three electric motors the NSX will be a great car for performance lovers and hybrid enthusiasts alike.
Offering comfort and technology as well as 300 horsepower and all-wheel drive, the S3 has it all and then some. Showing off as a small and sporty sedan that is balanced extremely well between performance and comfort the S3 makes a true statement on the road.
Yes the ATS has a version with a smaller less performance based engine, but why talk about that when we can discuss the high performing 420 horsepower V6 that is smaller and lighter than the CTS. By adopting this engine the ATS is poised to really ground up some pavement and offer a lot of driving excitement to be enjoyed. Marry the power up with the classic Cadillac features designed for safety and comfort and the ATS is a really amazing car to drive.
In absolutely no hurry to lose its title as the best SUV on the market the Escalade offered for 2015 is power laden at 420 horsepower and 460 lb.-ft. of torque when equipped with a 6.2-liter directly injected V8 engine. This awesome beast can be equipped with either two or four-wheel drive and the entire interior has been completely redone to allow a separation between this big SUV and its Suburban and Yukon cousins. As a long-time leader for luxury SUVs, the Escalade continues to set the standard others can only aspire to.
Taking its place in the mid-sized truck segment to offer a powerful and intelligently designed truck, the Colorado comes in ready to take a ton of the market. Offered in three body configurations and with three powertrains this is a truck ready to attract a huge crowd that doesn’t need to pay for a full size truck when mid-size will do the job. The turbodiesel will be available for the Colorado starting in 2016 and this truck is sure winner in a class that has become very stagnant from domestic automakers.
As a long-standing super car the Corvette for 2015 aims to continue pleasing its fans with a car that will pull the tar out of the blacktop and ask for more. Powered by a naturally aspirate direct injected V8 in a 6.2-liter engine that offers somewhere between 530 and 570 horsepower this mean beast is getting closer and closer to being too powerful for public roads, but not quite yet which means anyone who can afford one will experience a driving enjoyment not found anywhere else. As the reigning king of the domestic performance cars the Corvette continues to gain ground and impress the masses with its superior performance and stylings.
Coming in with a long list of style and engine options the F-150 will continue to lead the pack when it comes to domestic truck sales and innovations. Equipped with aluminum-alloy body panels the truck is lighter and performs better than in years past. This truck is much better in every way than its predecessors as it continues to walk the tightrope line between groundbreaking and bank breaking when it comes to improvements and innovations.
With a complete redesign the new Mustang will continue to offer a body style that is a throwback to yesteryear and add a fantastic amount of added technological and performance improvements. Some of these include the independent rear suspension that will be offered on all styles and the 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine that will be added to the lineup to replace the V6. Of course the 5.0-liter V8 will continue to be the leader of the pack with its iconic power and following. No matter which Mustang is chosen it is sure to continue to offer great performance and comfort to enjoy a seriously remarkable ride.
Upgraded styling and all-wheel drive are the main improvements for this high-performing name sake that has taken the car world by storm. In fact the new look is such an improvement previous models will be considered conservative when parked next to each other. This new model will carry over the engine lineup that includes the 3.8-liter V6 and the 5.0-liter V8 for at least the first year.
With improved stylings and at least two fantastic engines to power this beauty, the XS is ready to enter the ring with the Audi A4 and BMW 3 series and easily land a knockout punch. The engines are expected to be a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 both mated with a new ZF eight-speed automatic transmission to make this car really be a leader in the class. Add to this the rear-wheel drive that is desired in most luxury cars and the ride and comfort of the XS becomes as obvious as the car is awesome.
As the truly super car offering of Jaguar, the F-Type is a gorgeous car whether standing still or screaming down the road. Add a hardtop to the mix and it gets even better making any competitor green with envy at the awesome package that makes up this vehicle. Even the base supercharged V6 engine comes in super strong with a 340-380 horsepower range and the upgraded engine is even better with a 5.0-liter V8 that offers a range of 495-550 horsepower for any owner to enjoy. Match this awesome power with the ZF eight-speed automatic transmission and this coupe truly one of the most impressive vehicles on the road to enjoy for a very long time.
The RC Coupe took its style from the IS 350 but shaved off two doors and the roof line to come in as a mean looking sports coupe that is ready to scream across the blacktop in beautiful style and true Lexus luxury. Built to complete with the BMW 4 series, the RC Coupe will initially be power by the IS 350’s 3.5-liter V6 that offers 306 horsepower, and 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engines. A V8 will be added to the lineup later that will offer 450 plus horsepower for the truly power hungry crowd to enjoy. No matter which engine is powering the RC Coupe, the style and elegance offered by Lexus on this vehicle is obvious and really attractive.
Entering a segment that has gained global popularity, the MKC will be offered as a compact luxury crossover that will compete in the world-wide market. This was an easy move for Lincoln with the tooling already in place from the Ford Escape, the Lincoln designers only had to ensure this SUV will be a true luxury offering and with upgraded equipment and a severely smooth ride the MKC outperforms expectations easily. The expected power will come from a 2.0-liter EcoBoost partnered with a six-speed automatic transmission and an available all-wheel drive will be offered as well. The MKC is sure to be a favorite of many luxury SUV shoppers for the next several years.
Having been the flagship model for Mercedes-Benz for several years, the C-Class is getting a whole new look and feel. Five inches have been added to the overall length to allow more rear seat legroom and improve the comfort of the ride for all occupants of this awesome vehicle. A brand new 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine will be offered as the base model and a 2.1-liter diesel will continue to be the upgrade engine in the lineup. With all these changed, the C-Class is expected to continue to draw a very prestigious and massive following and lead the way as the flagship of the Mercedes-Benz cars.
Because previous versions were a complete disappointment the Titan has been retooled, completely upgraded and is ready to prove it is not just a truck that is meant to be an afterthought compared to the domestic models. A new V6 is expected to be offered along with a brand new 5.0-liter Cummins diesel engine. With these two power plants under the hood, this is exactly the kind of truck that might have serious truck enthusiasts changing from their Fords and Chevys to the new Titan.
With a stiffer, lower, and longer wheel base as well as much more power than before, the new WRX is expected to come much closer to the concept car that was paraded around earlier in the year. Offering a six-speed manual and the possibility of a performance-tuned CVT the WRX is poised to perform as expected from the concept model. An STI is also expected to be available later this year to add to the enjoyment and excitement of a well-designed off road car.
As Tesla is known for, the Model X will be a massively high-performing sport SUV. This SUV is expected to reach zero to sixty times under 5.0 seconds and be available with all-wheel drive.
