Now it is finally the season of automobiles, Telegrafi reports. After the Paris Motor Show that took place in early October, the LA Auto Show that started last week brought the newest cars yet. Below you can see some of the best models turned into metal, as well as amazing concepts, in no particular order.

Nissan Maxima and Murano


While Nissan had said that it has nothing to present at this fair, it has shown the new Maxima and Murano models. The 3.5-liter engine remains under the hood of the Murano, while changes have been made to some upper parts, lights and a new grill. This car is not expected to be launched until 2020. The Maxima, which will be launched in 2019, has also undergone significant changes.

Rivian R1T and R1S

One of the biggest surprises of this fair was from Riviani who brought two electric cars. The R1T and R1S models, which have two 180 kWh engines each, producing 754 horsepower each, provide an autonomy of 650 kilometers. The creators have also focused on the performance of these cars from Riviani, which can accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in three seconds. They can reach the speed of 160 kilometers per hour only one second later.

Porsche 911

The special edition of the next-generation 911 seemed like it would never arrive, but finally we have an all-new 9992, which is the car of the year 2020. This 911, which was introduced in Carrera and 4S versions, has revolutionary updates style, while the part of the defenders gives it a completely different look. With the 3.0-liter engine, this Porsche that produces 443 horsepower can accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in 3.5 seconds.

AMG GT R Pro

Mercedes was never going to let Porsche get all the attention, so it introduced the 911's rival which is a very powerful AMG GT R Pro. The car borrows from all AMG GT models, only there are changes in the front lights and some elements of the rear. The interior has many modern touches, the new steering wheel and the 12.3-inch touch-sensitive screen stand out. This 550 horsepower Mercedes is street legal, but race track focused.

Jeep Gladiator

Enthusiasts eagerly awaited the long-announced Jeep Gladiator. This Jeep has been around for 26 years, since it first introduced the Comanche, and finally phased out the Wrangler version. Now that the Gladiator is ready for production, it remains to be seen how the four-door car and the 3.0-liter diesel engine, which produces 285 horsepower, will perform. The all-terrain 4x4 is expected to arrive next year.

lincoln aviator

Earlier we saw it in New York, while now the Aviator SUV car has been officially presented. The car with three rows of seats, which has a 3.0-liter engine, produces up to 400 horsepower. In this Lincoln ten-speed automatic, the hybrid option is also installed.

Kia Soul

The Korean manufacturer Kia has sent to the LA Auto Show, the third generation Soul, which has more square shapes than ever before. The cheapest version will have the 1.2-liter engine and produce 147 horsepower, while the sporty 1.6-liter version will produce 201 horsepower. Also available is the electric version with 64 kWh, which is expected to have an autonomy of 480 kilometers.

Toyota Prius AWD-e

For the Los Angeles show, the Toyota-specific Pius has undergone significant changes. The last generation had changes to the lights, which greatly improved its appearance, while recent updates have made the Prius AWD even better looking. Under the hood is the system that helps drive with all wheels, as it is also assisted by an electric motor.

Mazda3

After the amazing Kai concept that was presented at the Tokyo Motor Show, everyone has been dying to see it as a production car. Their prayers have been heard, as Mazda has launched the car, which is also available in a sedan version. The elegant lines and long roof give the Mazda3 a very elegant and luxurious appearance, which is also reflected in the interior. Model 3 has Mazda's revolutionized Skyactiv-X engine that works with little expense, giving high performance.

honda passport

As if Lincoln and Honda brought an SUV, which was not thought to be seen again. The Passport model arrives in 2019, and will sit between the CR-V and Pilot models in Honda's lineup. Looking like a Pilot all-terrain vehicle, this model only comes with the 3.5-liter V6 version that produces 280 horsepower. It seems that Honda has put a lot of effort into the Passport, which is much lighter and more powerful than its predecessor.

hyundai palisade

The Japanese manufacturer Palisade used the LA Auto Show to present the new and most important Palisade car. In this eight-passenger SUV, there is also plenty of technology to keep them busy the whole time. The car with a 3.8-liter engine will produce 291 horsepower. Power will be sent to two wheels or four, through eight automatic speeds.

The Audi e-tron GT

Audi has grabbed the spotlight with the introduction of the e-tron, which is a four-door car that will be introduced in 2021. The aggressive styling and appearance that this Audi has, has made it surpass the appearance of the Tesla Model S. It doesn't even lag behind in terms of performance, leaving behind other electric cars as it produces 590 horsepower. It accelerates from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in 3.5 seconds, while the lithium-ion battery helps it have an autonomy of 450 kilometers.

Toyota Camry and Avalon TRD

Toyota is not synonymous with sporty style, but it seems that the Japanese manufacturer wants to change this concept. Along with the changes to the Supra, the company has made changes to the TRD lineup, from which the new Camry and Avalon models will emerge. The engines will continue to be those that produced 301 horsepower, only they will have changes in the circulation system, that of gas extraction, suspension and brakes.

BMW 8 Series without roof

After introducing the new 8 Seires at La Mans, BMW removed the roof, making it the first of its kind to not have a top. Under the hood, it has all the parts like the coupe, only it has a much sportier look. The fabric roof can be opened in 15 seconds even when moving at 50 kilometers per hour.

BMW X7

The German manufacturer BMW has presented the biggest car ever, the X7 SUV, at the LA Auto show. With seven seats and enormous dimensions, this car will cost starting at 70 euros when it goes on sale at the beginning of next year. The 3.0-liter engine that produces 335 horsepower enables it to accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in 5.2 seconds. The X8 is not expected to arrive until next year.
