What Will You See At the LA Auto Show?

It seems like there are new additions to the LA Auto Show every week. The categories include debuts (both North America and World), concept cars, and alternative fuel vehicles. Here is a quick look at the vehicles which have already announced that they will be at the LA Auto Show in November 2011.

ñ  Fiat 500 Abarth

The European version of the Fiat Abarth is already well-known, but the United States version will debut at the LA Auto Show in November. It will include a more powerful engine with Multiair technology. Little else has been released as to what the American trim will look like.

ñ  2012 Hyundai Elantra Coupe

Hyundai has announced that they will show a new version of the Elantra Coupe that will set the foundation for an R-Spec offering. By offering a two-door Elantra, Hyundai will be adding 3 more body styles including the sedan and touring models.

ñ  2012 Hyundai Azera

It is expected that the 2012 Hyundai Azera will have a very similar design as the Korean-market Grandeur, which was revealed earlier this year. In terms of how it will fit into the Hyundai lineup, many people believe that it will be slotted below the Genesis, but above the Sonata.

ñ  2012 Infiniti JX

The 2012 Infiniti JX was first introduced at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in August, however the first production model will be unveiled at the LA Auto show. It will then be officially launched sometime in the spring of 2012. It is a 7-seat crossover with a very luxurious interior and overall aggressive styling. It also features next-generation telematics.

ñ  Lincoln MKS and MKT

Earlier this year, Lincoln announces that it would be unveiling seven models which are either new or updated over the next few years. At the 2011 LA Auto Show, they will roll out the changes made to the MKS and MKT. The goal of the new re-design is to combine the strengths of BMW and Lexus – aka “engaging to drive” and “luxurious”.

ñ  Pantera Is Back

DeTomaso is most well known for the Pantera and fans were shocked (and not impressed) when they debuted the Deauville concept at the Motor Show in Geneva. At the LA Auto Show, DeTomaso is bringing back a new Pantera. While the details have been kept under wraps, enthusiasts have a reason to be excited again.

Green Technology

The LA Auto Show has become the leader in green cars and associated technologies over the years and there is little doubt that 2011 will be any different. While many automakers have kept a lid on exactly what green cars they will be showing, the winner of the Annual Green Car of the Year and Nielsen Automotive Green Marketer of the Year will be announced at the show.

If you love cars, then the LA Auto Show in November 2011 is definitely the place to be.
