NY- Lincoln MKZ

The 2013 Lincoln MKZ saloon has made its debut at the NY Motor Show today. Three engines will be offered at launch. The entry-level 2.0-litre EcoBoost engine produces 240bhp and 270lb ft of torque. Lincoln says the engine “delivers the performance of a traditional V6 along with expected segment-leading fuel economy that is at least 3mpg better than the closest competitor”. A 3.7-litre V6 produces 300bhp and 277lb ft, 37bhp and 28lb ft more than the engine it replaces. Both engines are fitted with a six-speed auto. Front- and rear-wheel drive configurations are offered. 

NY- Chevrolet Impala

The 2014 Chevrolet Impala has been revealed at today’s New York Motor Show. The all-new model is the tenth generation of the model, which was introduced in 1958. Three engines are offered: a 2.4-litre Ecotec engine producing 182bhp, a 195bhp 2.5 and a 3.6-litre V6 which will produce an estimated 303bhp. All engines are matched to a six-speed automatic.



 

NY- BMW M6

The BMW M6 convertible has been revealed at this year's New York Motor Show. The convertible, which costs £98,995 when it goes on sale in the UK in September, shares the M5's twin-turbocharged 4.4-litre V8 petrol engine and seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox. The new M6 convertible weighs 1980kg (50kg heavier than before) but posts official times of 4.3sec for 0-62mph and 13.1sec for 0-124mph. The improved performance is allied to reduced fuel consumption, which is rated at 27.4mpg with emissions of 239g/km.

New York- Mercedes GL

Mercedes is promising ‘S-class levels’ of ride comfort from the second-generation Mercedes GL luxury off-roader, which has been unveiled at the NY Motor Show.  Almost 100kg has been slashed from the kerb weight. The GL-class is expected to reach the UK towards the end of this year.

NY Motor Show- Acura ILX

The production version of the Acura ILX has been revealed at the New York motor show, with its maker pricing it to attract new premium brand buyers and tempt people away from established brands such as Audi and BMW. Engine choices for the Audi A3 rival are 2.0 and 2.4-litre four-cylinder petrol engines, and a 1.5-litre hybrid, which is the first from the company.

New York- Mazda Takeri

The Mazda Takeri saloon concept previously seen at the Tokyo and Geneva motor shows has been unveiled in front of the US audience at the NY Motor Show. With its SkyActiv technology, Mazda makes a compelling case for the longevity of petrol and diesel as power sources. As far as it’s concerned, the future of the internal combustion engine is only just beginning.

New York Motor Show- Hyundai Santa Fe

Hyundai has revealed more details about the next Hyundai Santa Fe at the NY Motor Show. It is expected to target improvements in refinement, design and practicality over the current model. The new car, which sits on a modified Hyundai Sonata platform, is longer, wider and lower but sits on the same wheelbase as its predecessor. The new Santa Fe will go on sale in the UK in the last quarter of 2012, with prices expected to start at around £25k. The existing model currently starts close to £20k. All UK models will be four-wheel drive. Engine choices are yet to be finalised, but it is expected that the 2.4-litre and 3.3-litre V6 petrol engines won’t be coming to the UK.

NY Motor Show- Dodge Viper

The new Dodge SRT Viper has been revealed at the New York Motor Show. The new American performance icon is lighter, more powerful. The 8.4-litre V10 engine is 13kg lighter than that of the old Viper's. Peak power is improved to 631bhp at 6150rpm, up 59bhp, and peak torque is boosted to 600lb ft at 4950rpm, up 40lb ft and available 150rpm lower. Two versions of the SRT Viper will be offered, including a base model and a pluckier GTS variant. A racing version of the Viper was also shown, which will compete in the American le Mans Series. 

New York- Fisker Atlantic

The Fisker Atlantic luxury saloon will rival the BMW 5 Series. Fisker is promising that the Atlantic’s interior will be “really special”. Three differently themed interior trim levels will be offered, from a sports-styled layout to a luxurious one aimed at female buyers. The Atlantic is likely to go on sale before the Surf, which is the shooting brake variant of the Karma.
