  • 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 />
<br />
First staged in 1901, the Chicago Auto Show is the largest auto show in North America and has been held more times than any other auto exposition on the continent

  • 12 February 2015:  2015 GMC ACADIA: Continual refinements greet the Acadia for 2015, offered in: SLE (with SLE-1 and SLE-2 trims), the SLT (with SLT-1 and SLT-2 trims) and the Denali models, with seven- or eight-passenger configurations. The Acadia features a 3.6-liter engine with direct injection technology that helps produce power similar to many V-8 engines. In the Acadia Denali, it is rated at 288 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. In SLE and SLT models, the engine is rated at 281 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque. In all models, it is mated to the Hydra-Matic six-speed automatic transmission, with clutch-to-clutch shift operation for front- and all-wheel-drive vehicles. It also offers automatic grade braking, shift stabilization and precise shift control, as well as hill start assist. The available intelligent all-wheel-drive (AWD) system provides increased traction on slippery roads by actively managing the torque distribution between the front and rear axles, and delivers it to the wheels that have the best traction. With five passengers aboard, the Acadia holds 24.1 cu. ft. of cargo, which increases to 70.1 behind the second row, and up to 116.1 cu. ft. of gear behind first row. Acadia is the first vehicle on the market with GMC's new front center air bag system, and some of the popular options include rear-seat entertainment, a Dual SkyScape sunroof and a trailering package. Chicago Auto Show Fact: General Motors selected the 2012 Chicago Auto Show to unveil the new 2013 GMC Acadia crossover vehicle.<br />

  • 08  February 2013: 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray sports car. Chicago Auto Show, Chicago Automobile Trade Association (CATA), McCormick Place, Chicago Illinois..2014 CHEVROLET CORVETTE STINGRAY: Crowds will be swarming to the Chevrolet exhibit during the ten-day run of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show to be among the first to see the 2014 Corvette on display. Visually stunning, the '14 Corvette's sculptured, aerodynamic two-door hatchback exterior and track-capabilities is worthy of the iconic "Stingray" designation. This marks the seventh-generation of "America's Sport Car," and as the C7, goes farther than ever, thanks to today's advancements in design, technology and engineering. Matching the dramatic exterior is a new 6.2 liter (376 cubic inch) LT1 V-8 engine that pumps out 450 horsepower and 450 lb.-ft. of torque to the rear wheels. Consumers have their choice of a six-speed paddle-shift automatic or seven-speed manual gearbox with "Active Rev Match" that anticipates gear selections and matches engine speed for perfect shifts every time. Either way, we're talking 0-to-60 mph in less than four seconds. For 2014, the latest Corvette shares only two parts with the previous generation model. Underneath is an all-new frame structure and chassis that helped shift weight rearward for an optimal 50/50 weight balance. Lightweight features include a carbon fiber hood and removable roof panel; composite fenders, doors and rear quarter panels. Slide into the cockpit composed of premium materials, smaller-diameter steering wheel, standard dual, eight-inch configurable driver/infotainment screens and available color head-up display. There are two new seat choices - each featuring a lightweight magnesium frame. You can see the 2014 Corvette Stingray coupe in Chicago from Feb. 9th-18th, or wait until they roll into Chevrolet dealerships the third quarter of 2013.

  • 12 February 2015:   2015 LOTUS EVORA IPS 2+2: Get your camera ready for the exotic vehicles in the Super Car Gallery exhibit at the Chicago Auto Show (Feb.14-22, 2015). This includes the exotic Lotus Evora IPS 2+2 sports car. “Wowing” the show goers with its swept-forward cabin and aggressive poise, the Evora models come fitted with a mid-mounted 3.5-liter V-6, rear-wheel drive and weighing in at a mere 3,000 pounds. The stock engine develops 276-horsepower/258 lb. ft. of torque, and for more attitude, the supercharged Evora S delivers 345hp and 295lb. ft. of torque with a 0-to-60mph time of 5.0 seconds and a governed 159 mph top speed.  Buyers can select a six-speed manual gearbox or six-speed automatic transmission, as well as 18- or 19-inch alloy rims framed by Pirelli P-Zero tires. In fluctuating traffic conditions the ‘IPS’ (Intelligent Precision Shift) automatic version with paddle shift control provides a more relaxed driving mode thanks to its flowing power delivery. The Evora chassis is composed of an extruded and bonded aluminum structured developed for its lightweight yet incredibly stiff design. Surprisingly, there is a combined 23.0 cu. ft. of cargo space behind the front seat and trunk. For 2015, the Evora is a Lotus created to take you further, for longer, and in greater comfort than ever before. Once behind the wheel of the Evora, the “so many roads, so little time” Lotus tagline becomes quite evident.<br />

  • 11 February 2009: 2009 CHEVROLET CORVETTE: Hogging the spotlight this year is the Corvette ZR1 supercar, pictured elsewhere. Changes and enhancements to the '09 Corvette reflect continual improvements that speak to Chevrolet's unflagging commitment to the sports car. A new lower priced 1LT convertible joins the list of available models. Standard in the Coupe and Convertible is the 6.2L LS3 small-block V-8 rated at 430 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque. With the optional two-mode exhaust system, power ratings increase to 436 horses and 428 pound-feet. Standard is a six-speed manual, with six-speed paddle shift automatic optional. Back again for 2009 is the 505-horsepower Corvette Z06 Coupe, which now is a bit overshadowed by the ZR1.. The Chicago Auto Show is a charity event of the Chicago Automobile Trade Association (CATA) and is held annually at McCormick Place in Chicago Illinois.

  • 12 February 2015:  2016 JAGUAR F-TYPE: A new star in the Jaguar galaxy is the 2016 Jaguar F-Type Coupe and Convertible, with both on display at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. The ’16 Jaguar F-Type extends its performance and dynamic capability with instinctive all-wheel drive (AWD). For 2016, the F-Type model range consist of: F-Type (340-hp, rear wheel drive with automatic or manual), F-Type S (380-hp automatic with RWD or AWD, or manual with rear-wheel drive), and F-Type R (550-hp automatic with AWD). Engines can be matched with an eight-speed automatic transmission for shift speed, comfort and refinement, or for a select group of enthusiasts, a six-speed manual transmission for the V-6 and rear-wheel drive (RWD) configuration. The car features a short-throw gear lever with a travel of only 1.77-inches (45mm), closely-spaced ratios, and pedals well placed for heel-and-toe changes. Transmitting the V-8's 502 lb-ft of torque to the road though all wheels helps the R models to accelerate from 0-to-60 mph in just 3.9 seconds on the way to a maximum track speed of 186mph. Its 1+1 cockpit configuration wraps around the driver, sitting low in the heart of the F-TYPE, close to the center of gravity. Now standard is the top-spec 770W Meridian surround sound audio system, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, Jaguar Smart Key Keyless entry and 14-way fully power-adjustable seats.  Coupe models also receive the panoramic glass roof as standard, adding a tremendous amount of light to the cabin.  R Coupe models receive a power tailgate as standard. On S models standard equipment now includes Configurable Dynamic Mode, a flat-bottomed racing-style steering wheel and the driver-selectable Switchable Active Exhaust. Luggage room without the spare is 11-cu.ft., and seven-cu.ft. with the spare tire.<br />

<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.

  • 12 February 2015:  2016 JAGUAR F-TYPE: A new star in the Jaguar galaxy is the 2016 Jaguar F-Type Coupe and Convertible, with both on display at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. The ’16 Jaguar F-Type extends its performance and dynamic capability with instinctive all-wheel drive (AWD). For 2016, the F-Type model range consist of: F-Type (340-hp, rear wheel drive with automatic or manual), F-Type S (380-hp automatic with RWD or AWD, or manual with rear-wheel drive), and F-Type R (550-hp automatic with AWD). Engines can be matched with an eight-speed automatic transmission for shift speed, comfort and refinement, or for a select group of enthusiasts, a six-speed manual transmission for the V-6 and rear-wheel drive (RWD) configuration. The car features a short-throw gear lever with a travel of only 1.77-inches (45mm), closely-spaced ratios, and pedals well placed for heel-and-toe changes. Transmitting the V-8's 502 lb-ft of torque to the road though all wheels helps the R models to accelerate from 0-to-60 mph in just 3.9 seconds on the way to a maximum track speed of 186mph. Its 1+1 cockpit configuration wraps around the driver, sitting low in the heart of the F-TYPE, close to the center of gravity. Now standard is the top-spec 770W Meridian surround sound audio system, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, Jaguar Smart Key Keyless entry and 14-way fully power-adjustable seats.  Coupe models also receive the panoramic glass roof as standard, adding a tremendous amount of light to the cabin.  R Coupe models receive a power tailgate as standard. On S models standard equipment now includes Configurable Dynamic Mode, a flat-bottomed racing-style steering wheel and the driver-selectable Switchable Active Exhaust. Luggage room without the spare is 11-cu.ft., and seven-cu.ft. with the spare tire.<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 />

  • 12 February 2015: 2016 FORD GT: Supercar enthusiasts will be crowding around the 2016 Ford GT at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. From its tear-drop shape to its aircraft-inspired fuselage and visibility-enhancing curved windshield, every slope and shape is designed to minimize drag and optimize downforce and stability. The GT is equipped with a 600-plus-horsepower twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V-6 engine that offers remarkable efficiency given its power output. Mated to the V-6 is a seven-speed dual-clutch transaxle that provides for near-instantaneous gear changes and exceptional driver control. The narrow-profile canopy reduces frontal area and caps a purposeful interior that provides state-of-the-art technology to ensure control, comfort and safety. Note that the active rear spoiler is keyed to speed and driver input, deploying and adjusting its height and/or pitch angle depending on conditions. Lightweight carbon fiber construction is used for body components, the two-seat passenger cell and brake discs. Driver and passenger access is provided by upward-swinging doors. An F1-style steering wheel integrates all necessary driver controls, creating a stalkless steering column that allows uncluttered access to the transmission paddle-shift controls. A digital instrument cluster provides a wealth of driver-focused data. The display is configurable for multiple driving environments and different driving modes. Beginning production in 2016, Ford GT arrives in select global markets to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Ford GT race cars placing 1-2-3 at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans.<br />

  • 12 February 2015:  2016 BUICK AVENIR: A spectacular Buick concept will be on review for the first time at a Chicago Auto Show, Feb. 14-22, 2015. Buick calls the prototype, “Avenir,” which is French for future. The Avenir serves as a test vehicle to explore new styling and advanced technology that may transfer to future production models. More than 100 designers, sculptors and fabricators at GM’s design studio near Melbourne, in Australia, and Buick’s North American design center, in Warren, Mich., contributed to the project. Avenir’s classic rear-wheel drive proportion and exterior design theme include Buick’s signature sweep-spear body side motif, taught lines, a long hood, short overhangs, wheels-at-the-corners stance, and a nod to the “boattail” styling of the 1971-73 Rivera. A striking new grille design features a large opening accented by a return to the three-color – red, silver and blue – Buick tri-shield insignia, accented by wing-shaped elements. The grille is flanked by bold headlamps featuring full LED lighting. Avenir’s sophisticated color palette, including a crystalline exterior color and strained use of bright work accent the Avenir’s body lines. Within the personal four-passenger cabin there is a color palette of light and natural tones blended with oiled and buffed wood trim and Galvano satin-chrome accents. There are driver-recognition features that automatically sync infotainment preferences and Buick IntelliLink with large, 12-inch diagonal color touch screen. Keeping the interior fresh is an ionic air filtration system. Suggested powertrain consists of the next-generation direct-injected V-6 engine with fuel-saving active fuel management that deactivates cylinders when not need, stop/start technology, and nine-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission. A twin-clutch all-wheel drive system is featured, as is driver-selectable suspension. This is a must see concept car at the 107th annual Chicago Auto Show.<br />

  • 12 February 2015: 2016 FORD GT: Supercar enthusiasts will be crowding around the 2016 Ford GT at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. From its tear-drop shape to its aircraft-inspired fuselage and visibility-enhancing curved windshield, every slope and shape is designed to minimize drag and optimize downforce and stability. The GT is equipped with a 600-plus-horsepower twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V-6 engine that offers remarkable efficiency given its power output. Mated to the V-6 is a seven-speed dual-clutch transaxle that provides for near-instantaneous gear changes and exceptional driver control. The narrow-profile canopy reduces frontal area and caps a purposeful interior that provides state-of-the-art technology to ensure control, comfort and safety. Note that the active rear spoiler is keyed to speed and driver input, deploying and adjusting its height and/or pitch angle depending on conditions. Lightweight carbon fiber construction is used for body components, the two-seat passenger cell and brake discs. Driver and passenger access is provided by upward-swinging doors. An F1-style steering wheel integrates all necessary driver controls, creating a stalkless steering column that allows uncluttered access to the transmission paddle-shift controls. A digital instrument cluster provides a wealth of driver-focused data. The display is configurable for multiple driving environments and different driving modes. Beginning production in 2016, Ford GT arrives in select global markets to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Ford GT race cars placing 1-2-3 at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans.<br />
