  • 12 February 2015:  2015 JAGUAR F-TYPE - Type R: Powerful, agile and distinctive, the 2015 Jaguar F-Type Coupe is a true Jaguar sports car, engineered for high performance and instantly responsive handling – the latest in a distinguished bloodline of cars. Supercharged engines, lightweight aluminum body construction and advanced driving technologies deliver an experience that is intuitive, instinctive and alive. There are three coupe variations in the F-Type range: F-Type, F-Type S and top-tier F-Type R.  Its 1+1 cockpit configuration wraps around the driver, sitting low in the heart of the F-TYPE, close to the center of gravity. While each F-Type trim level offers its own distinctive characteristics, all are equally at home on mountain switchbacks, on the highway or in the city. The Jaguar supercharged 3.0 liter V-6 340-horsepower engine delivers powerful and efficient performance. Compelling performance and beguiling design, the F-Type S Coupe adds a 380-hp supercharged 3.0L V-6 engine and a broader range of sophisticated driving technologies and up to 11.65 cubic feet of trunk space. It includes a limited-slip differential and Sport Suspension with Adaptive Dynamics. A panoramic glass roof is optional. The rear spoiler automatically deploys at 70-mph on Coupe models, reducing lift by up to 264-pounds for excellent high-speed stability. With a price of $100,000, the 2015 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe offers soaring performance, outstanding levels of dynamic capability and control. Its 5.0 liter supercharged V-8 engine produces 495-hp, accelerating from 0-60 mph in just 4.0-sec. The F-Type R features an Electronic Active Differential, Jaguar Super Performance Braking System, and Sport Suspension with Adaptive Dynamics. All powerplants come mated to an eight-speed “QuickShift” ZF transmission with Sport mode. <br />

  • 12 February 2015: Displayed by female model - 2015 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06: Chevrolet’s 2015 Corvette Z06 enters supercar territory with race-proven design, advanced technologies and world-class performance. The Corvette Z06 is the most capable, world-class Corvette model, ever. It’s the first Z06 since 1963 offered in coupe and convertible models. This is the first Corvette Z06 to offer supercharged engine, and thanks to a stronger aluminum frame, a removable roof panel. The heart of the 2015 Corvette Z06 is the all-new LT4 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine, expected to deliver an estimated 625 horsepower and massive 635 lb-ft of torque to the rear-wheel drive. Standard seven-speed manual transmission includes the Active Rev Match feature, or there is an all-new eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission designed to enhance both performance and MPGs.  Strap-in tightly, as the Z06 blasts from 0-to-60 mph in 2.95 seconds with the eight-speed automatic and 3.2 secs. with the seven-speed shifter. To balance performance and efficiency, the LT4 leverages the same trio of advanced technologies introduced on the Corvette Stingray: Direct injection, Active Fuel Management, or cylinder deactivation, and continuously variable valve timing. These technologies – combined with the fuel-efficient multi-speed transmissions, aerodynamic design and lightweight construction – help make the new Z06 surprisingly fuel efficient. The 2015 Corvette Z06 with the available Z07 package adds larger winglets to the carbon front splitter, along with an adjustable, see-through center section on the rear spoiler for track use; with this package, the Corvette Z06 delivers the most amount of aerodynamic downforce of any production car that GM has tested.<br />

2013 BUICK REGAL: A popular brand on display in the Buick exhibit is the Regal lineup for 2013. Perhaps it's Regal's four-door luxury sport sedan convenience with stylish coupe-like proportions, or that Buick IntelliLink is now stock equipment on all Regal models, and heated steering wheel standard with the Turbo package (excluding GS)? Consumers have their choice of four models, starting with the Regal, Regal Turbo, and two new editions - Regal with eAssist (fuel-saving technology), and the high-output Regal GS. There are also five trim levels: Regal (1SL), Premium I (1SN), Premium II (1SP), Premium III (1SR) and GS (1SX). All '13 Regal models rely on the excellent horsepower-per-liter ratio of the four-cylinder Ecotec engine family to deliver efficient, on-demand performance. The 182 horsepower Ecotec 2.4 liter with eAssist is the entry powertrain on Regal 1SL, 1SN and 1SP trim levels. Available at no additional charge is the Ecotec 2.0L turbo that delivers 220hp. When ordering the Regal GS, you'll receive special bodywork and interior trim; a high-output turbo with 270hp, Brembo front brakes and 19-inch alloy wheels or optional 20-inch polished alloy rims. A six-speed automatic transmission with driver shift control is paired with each engine. For those drivers that like stickshifts better, there is a six-speed manual gearbox available on Regal Turbo and GS. New exterior colors for 2013 are Black Diamond Tricoat (premium charge), Champagne Silver metallic and Dark Blue metallic. Buick IntelliLink allows smart phone control via voice activation and steering wheel-mounted controls. It also enables streaming stereo audio from the phone through services such as PANDORA Internet radio and Stitcher SmartRadio.

  • 11 February 2009: 2009 AUDI R8: Incorporating the name and the genes of the five-time Le Mans winner, the Audi R8 is a spectacular production two-seater. This is the first production Audi mid-engine sports car, featuring a 420 horsepower, 4.2-liter V-8 FSI engine. For '09 a six disc CD player, Bluetooth and Homelink are added to the long standard equipment list. Available are high gloss 19-inch alloy wheels, just in case you want to show off even more. The R8 comes with Quattro permanent all-wheel-drive, an aluminum body and Audi Space Frame. Behind the doors, a large 'sideblade' air deflector sweeps between the wheel arch and the roof section, and delivers air for the V-8 to breathe as well as for cooling. An automatically extending rear spoiler is deployed to assist the R8 by using the wind. Estimated top speed is 187 mph, and this Audi can blast from 0 to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds.<br />

  • 12 February 2015: 2015 BMW i8 Hybrid: One of the few places you will see the exotic BMW i8 Hybrid sports car is at the 107th annual Chicago Auto Show, Feb.14-22, 2015. BMW touts the i8 as “Progress in Motion,” due to the highly emotional design, dynamic performance, and fuel efficiency and emissions figures worthy of a compact car. Groundbreaking eDrive plug-in hybrid technology combines the modified electric drive system from the BMW i3 producing 131horsepower at the front wheels, and a three-cylinder TwinPower turbo motor producing 231hp at the rear wheels. Working in tandem, they allow the two drive systems to display their respective talents, delivering drive performance of a true sports car, with an acceleration of 0-to-60 mph in 4.4 seconds, in a vehicle that is also capable of achieving up to an estimated 94 mpg. It can operate solely on electric power up to 22 miles, which means no driving tailpipe emissions to a maximum eDrive speed of 75 mph. Visually, the exterior includes sweeping lines, short front/rear overhangs, and flat silhouette lend the vehicle a striking appearance. Note the large, transparent greenhouse over the 2+2 cabin, and how the doors swing upwards like wings. Thanks to the dual drive systems, all four wheels of the BMW i8 Concept can be driven at the same time, similar to an all-wheel-drive vehicle. This solution combines the advantages of front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive to ensure the optimal dynamic drive configuration as required.<br />

  • 12 February 2015: 2015 LINCOLN MKZ: Marking a key milestone in Lincoln's reinvention is the dramatic 2015 Lincoln MKZ midsize luxury sedan. The MKZ was the first model created by the new Lincoln Design Studio. New for 2015 is available connectivity to the MyLincoln Mobile app. Connectivity is made possible through an available 3G embedded modem. There are four new exterior colors: Luxe, Magnetic, Bronze Fire and Guard. The exterior wears a sweeping roofline, steeply raked windshield, classic split-wing grille (first used on 1938 Lincoln-Zephyr), crafted LED headlights in sync with the steering wheel, and thin, full-width LED taillight graphic. Complementing the sophisticated body lines, the MKZ offers three distinct powertrains. Standard equipment includes 2.0-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost delivering 240 horsepower and a 20-percent increase in highway fuel economy. Next, the optional 3.7L V-6 produces 300hp that is 37hp more than the previous MKZ V-6 while improving fuel economy five-percent. When equipped for a trailer, the V-6 has a 2,000 pound tow capacity. Both of those engines utilize a push-button shift that replaces traditional mechanical transmission shift lever with a contemporary five-button interface, and can be match to models with either the front-wheel or all-wheel drive configurations. Innovation and technology abound inside all '14 MKZ, starting with MyLincoln Touch driver connect technology, push-button shift, remote start and a retractable panoramic roof that utilizes a 15.2-square-foot glass panel. The new MKZ is the only sedan in its class to offer inflatable second-row outboard seat belts, and the available THX II car audio system is a Lincoln-exclusive that contains 700 watts, 14 channels and 14 speakers. Finally, the well-tailored truck provides an ample 15.4 cu. ft. of luggage room.<br />

  • 12 February 2015:  2015 CADILLAC ELR: The 107th annual Chicago Auto Show, Feb. 14-22, 2015, becomes the third year that the sleek Cadillac ELR electric vehicle luxury coupe has been displayed in the Windy City. It’s the first application of an extended-range electric vehicle technology by a full-line luxury automotive brand. The Cadillac ELR has an aggressive, forward-leaning profile that introduces a new, progressive theme and proportion in Cadillac’s design evolution. The overall shape is reinforced by a prominent, sweeping body line accented by 20-inch wheels pushed to the edges of the body. Making the ELR a standout are the light-emitting diode (LED) headlamps, daytime running lamps and taillamps, as well as signature front and rear lighting elements. Inside, the ELR’s classic 2+2 layout is driver focused and fitted with leather-trimmed cockpit that blends authentic chrome and wood accents – and available carbon fiber trim – as well as a sueded microfiber headliner and steering wheel covered in leather and sueded microfiber. True engineering marvels power the ELR, combining pure electric drive and an efficient, range-extending 1.4L gasoline-powered electric generator capable of 207 horsepower of total system power. Using only the energy stored in the battery, the ELR delivers a range of about 35 miles of pure electric driving. The premium Bose 10-channel audio system with active noise cancellation is standard equipment.  For the record, the ELR design is almost unchanged from the Converj concept that was a hit at the ‘09 Chicago show.<br />
