In the automotive world, end of the year means the birth of a new celebration. In 2015, there is more to come. We put in your hand our favourite 10 car models that we can’t wait to see cruising the UAE roads in 2015.
-
BMW X5 M and X6 M
|
|
This is an Ultra-powerful M versions of the new X5 and X6. They’ll be stronger than ever and exude even more menace in their restyling.
2. Audi A4
|
|
The next generation of Audi’s most important model, the globally successful A4 will be sold as a sedan; a long-wheelbase mini-limo. There also will be S and RS derivatives offering more power.
3. Chrysler 200
|
|
Chrysler uses a pile of buzz words to describe the all-new 200 “iconic,” “industry first,” car. The 2015 Chrysler 200 rolls into dealerships sometime this spring. Ultimately replacing both the Dodge Avenger as well as its namesake (formerly known as the Sebring), the 200 comes off the old Chrysler platform and onto Fiat’s “Compact U.S. Wide” component set.
|
|
Lamborghini Gallardo a car with 10-year production run make Lambo’s most successful model ever. Entering the Gallardo’s replacement, the Huracán (OO-rah-kahn), which Lamborghini hopes will build on the glories of its predecessor. Huracán won’t offer a manual, only a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic.
5. Hyundai Genesis- 2015:
|
|
The evolution of Hyundai’s rear-drive luxury mid-sizer. The second generation boasts major equipment upgrades, including Google Glass integration and automatic braking and lane-keeping assist. Hyundai continues to probe higher price points, and the Genesis will continue that trend.
6. Chevrolet Colorado 2015
|
|
The Americanized version of GM’s global (Brazil, Thailand, etc.) mid-size pickup that made its debut in 2011. It comes in extended cab and crew cab bodies and with two cargo box lengths. Chevy will offer rear- and four-wheel-drive models, as well as a Z71 off-road package. In a segment that’s been left to rot for a decade, GM’s mid-size truck is big news. Even middling competence should be enough to win buyers. And there’s a diesel coming.
7. Cadillac ATS Coupe
|
|
Cadillac ATS Coupe is simply a two-door version of the ATS sedan. The ATS is one of the best Cadillacs ever, and given the choice of a coupe or a sales proof wagon as a second platform variant, GM did the smart thing by hacking off two doors. The coupe will appeal to middle-income empty nesters looking for reasonably priced driveway jewelry, and it’ll make an excellent basis for the ATS-V.
8. Lexus RC F
|
|
A coupe version of the IS sedan, the hot-rod RC F is the most powerful Lexus ever. The Lexus lineup lacks a small coupe to take on the German competition. The RC will fill that gap. In sporty F guise, it promises to be our choice, provided the RC F starts off where the excellent IS F left off.
9. Mercedes-Benz C-class:
|
|
With last year’s arrival of the CLA-class front- and four wheeldrive small sedan, the C-class has a new position among its siblings, Mercedes has given the upcoming version larger dimensions and aspirations. Mercedes compares the experience of sitting in and driving the newest C-class to scoring a first-class airline upgrade.
10. Subaru WRX STI
|
|
We can feel a certain anticipation for the upcoming STI version. So, what makes the STI worth the wait? Like the regular WRX, the STI has a new platform. The new architecture allows for nearly two inches of additional rear legroom and a larger trunk, features that buyers looking for a budget Audi S4 may appreciate more than will those craving a semi rally car.
