The S550 Coupe has a 4.7-litre Biturbo V8 engine that delivers 449 horsepower, while the 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system comes standard providing enhanced traction on wet roads, as well as a new “curve tilting” functionality that is set to reduce lateral acceleration.

The sixth generation Mustang comes with some pretty awesome features, including fully independent rear suspension on all models, as well as an optional 2.3-litre EcoBoost turbocharged and four-cylinder engine, that channels 310 horses to the rear wheels. A Selectable Driving Modes system is also available and it allows the driver to adjust the steering effort, engine response, as well as transmission and stability control settings.

A pretty cool name for the successor of the Nissan Pulsar GTI-R! The interior looks very nice, with Recaro bucket seats, a thinner Alcantara sports wheel and Alcantara gearstick. This new version promises up to 247 horsepower coming from a 1.6-litre turbocharged engine. Enough to take on the VW Golf GTI? We’ll have to wait and see.

The Model X is based on the sedan platform of the Tesla Model S but will come with seven seats and double-hinged falcon doors which open upwards electrically, thus providing easy access to the second and third row of seats.

Tesla Motors is set to provide the Model X with a choice of two lithium-ion battery packs of 60 or 85 kWh. The new model is expected to be able to go from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 km/h) in about 4.4 seconds and its all-wheel drive system will use two engines (one for the front and one for the rear wheels), unlike traditional AWD systems, which have only one power source.

Although the MKC shares its standard 2.0-litre 240-horsepower turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder engine with the Ford Escape, a new 2.3-litre turbo-four with a V6 285-horsepower also comes as an alternative option.

I’m sure that 12 years of the current XC90 were enough to get you bored. That’s why Volvo finally decided that it’s time for a change and built a new version of the XC90. This is the first model based on Volvo’s own chassis technology and its own engines which will be 2.0-litre four-cylinder units and part of the new Drive-E family. The 316bhp T6 petrol is both turbo- and super-charged, while the 222 bhp D5 diesel is twin-turbocharged, with both engines linked to an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Porsche wants to satisfy all of its customers and is thus in the final stages of development of an even faster version of its latest 911 GT3-the RS. The car is set to feature a wider track, larger side air vents, a rear wing and a rear diffuser – all meant to increase downforce by 50%.The car is expected to have the GT3’s PDK gearbox and the 3.8-litre, flat-six engine of around 500bhp.
