New items in Detroit-2013. Photo of the brightest novelties

Infiniti Q50 & ndash; successor to the popular G series sedans and the first car created by the joint efforts of the Renault-Nissan and Daimler. But contrary to the preliminary data, it is not based on the Mercedes C-class, but on the "trolley & raquo; from the Infiniti G37.

Volkswagen CrossBlue & ndash; prototype of a large SUV (five-meter length), which exceeds the size of the notorious Tuareg. The concept has three rows of seats and a hybrid power plant with a capacity of 305 hp. The appearance of a production car based on this concept can take place in two years.

Another embodiment of the handsome and athlete Maserati Quattroporte. A great sedan even with a "weak" & raquo; the V6 engine exchanges a hundred in less than five seconds. The price of this basic modification in Europe is & ndash; from 96 500 euros. The car with V8 is sold for at least 130 500 euros.

The new Jeep Grand Cherokee has become less brutal and more glamorous. Obviously, the goal was to attract a female audience, as well as more unification with the Chrysler 300C (the Jeep brand, as is known, belongs to Chrysler, for which unification and, as a result, saving) is very important.

Hyundai HCD-14 & ndash; a concept that gives an idea of ​​how the premium segment sees the Koreans. I must say that their vision is very close to the European one. More refined design and fashionable image of the four-door coupe & raquo; can allow Asians to bite off the market share of Mercedes or BMW.

Toyota Furia was far from the brightest, but one of the most important premier auto show in Detroit. After all, this is the prototype of Corolla & ndash; one of the best-selling models in the world. It is unlikely that someone will call it beautiful, but it is not as boring as the current generation of "kings".

And this, perhaps, is the main premiere of the auto show. The long-awaited Mercedes CLA & ndash; & laquo; small & raquo; and "cheap" four-door coupe from Mercedes-Benz. It is based on the A-class platform, but even longer than the C-class. This is not a concept, but a serial model. Already know the time of the beginning of sales (Western Europe - April) and even the approximate prices in Russia & ndash; if the stars go well, then from 30 thousand euros, that is only 1 - 1,5 thousand more than in Germany.

Yes, they did it! Americans designed a beautiful SUV. Lincoln MKC is not brutal, but also not ridiculously glamorous, like the new Grand Cherokee. Just a beautiful car. It is on a fundamentally different approach to design and pleasant for the driver of small things the Americans are betting from Lincoln. This model (the serial version will be launched on the market in 2014) lays the beginning of a new family of 4 models that should revive the brand.

Lexus IS & ndash; perhaps, the main competitor presented here, in Detroit, the Infiniti Q50. Appearance of the 'lexus' & raquo; more controversial. Who will win, we will know this year. In Russia, the novelty should appear in the third quarter.

By name & ndash; Urban SUV Concept & ndash; it is clear that this is not a serial model. But what we see is very close to the future serial compact crossover. Honda with some delay (only in 2015), but will invade this promising market, where Nissan Juke already rules, and soon there will be Peugeot 2008, Fiat 500X, Opel Mokka and Renault Captur.

A new iteration of the pride of the US auto industry & ndash; Chevrolet Corvette. This is the seventh generation, and it does not lag behind the new technological trends: the electronic interactive instrument panel, the projection of the main indicators on the windscreen and so on. Well, the main thing & ndash; 450-strong engine, which accelerates the car to hundreds of faster than 4 seconds. In Russia & ndash; in the summer of 2014.

Cadillac ELR & ndash; It is an attempt to marry luxury and ecology. Recently, the concept was introduced (but there were many similar concepts) & ndash; and here's a production car. This sports coupe, which largely relies on the movement to electricity and technically in many respects repeats the "car of the year & raquo; Chevrolet Volt, but much more luxurious and includes many security systems & ndash; for example, the artificial sound of a motor that warns pedestrians of the approach of a normally noiseless electric car. Sales & ndash; in the beginning of 2014.
