Were several launches and presentations worldwide who have in common the " down to earth " . The brands in the U.S. motorshow preferred to bet on ready models or concepts that fit easily into profitable segments - nothing too sophisticated. The presentations at press conferences followed the same line. Although creative , had nothing spectacular - far from characteristic " pyrotechnic " that marked each edition of the Detroit before the crisis .
Interestingly , the main launch event was a supercar . The seventh -generation Corvette was the highlight of the booth of Chevrolet , which still had all the old versions of the model exposed . In addition to the Impala and Traverse - cars with the new visual identity of the brand - Chevrolet gave up space for Spin and Onix and thus valued the Brazilian design .
The other host followed the same trend "low profile " . The Chrysler Group had greater prominence with the Jeep , which showed reestilizações the Compass and Grand Cherokee . In the absence of big news , the way was valuing the SRT Viper supercar that is already on sale since mid-2012 . Ford , better finances , had the largest stand still and the concept of the new F - 150 as the main attraction.
Foreign news had more , but also no great eloquence . The Mercedes was the one that moved . Presented face-lift half-life E-Class , with the right new version done by AMG with 585 hp of power . The most important car for both the Brazilian consumer as the U.S. , was the CLA .
But the brand chose to save it in a separate room and will not expose it to the public. This not to burn the official presentation in a few weeks . The BMW concept compatriot bet on the future 4 Series coupe made in the 3 Series platform , and M6 Gran Coupé reality . Volkswagen targeted the taste of local audience with immense CrossBlue utility and its six individual places .
The Toyota , Nissan and Honda Japanese were even more " realistic " . The first came with the Corolla Furia Concept, an aggressive prototype that will give rise to new generation midsize sedan . Nissan has shown the production version of the Tiida , Versa called the United States, and a study of the future Murano - crossover that accumulates good sales in the local market .
Honda also had a concept as highlighted . Is the Urban SUV Concept, which as the name implies, a compact utility anticipates the lines of the Ford EcoSport . Another manufacturer with a prototype as the main attraction was the Korean Hyundai , with showy HCD - 14 is a four-door coupe in the Genesis platform.
Despite being a friendlier hall for " palpable " cars , there was place for sports frontline . Maserati has made the world premiere of the new generation Quattroporte , while Audi RS7 and surprised with its 560 hp . The Cayenne Turbo S was the star of the stand of Porsche and Ferrari F12 Berlinetta in . None, however , could take the shine of the newest Corvette , the big attraction in a pragmatic Show in Detroit .

O motor é um V8 com os mesmos 6.2 litros que o anterior, mas é todo novo, feito em alumínio, com injeção direta de combustível e desligamento automático de metade dos oito cilindros. Ele joga 450 cv e 62,2 kgfm nas rodas traseiras e, aliado à uma nova transmissão manual de sete velocidades, leva o esportivo até os 100 km/h em menos de quatro segundos. Culpa também da redução de peso na ordem de 45 kg. A confiança da GM no novo Corvette é tanta que ressuscitou na versão o mítico nome Stingray, usado na segunda geração do esportivo.
Ford Atlas Concept
Sem grandes novidades em seu estande, a Ford apostou em um conceito da nova F-150, o veículo mais vendido dos Estados Unidos. Mesmo em uma picape média-grande, a Ford investiu na aerodinâmica. A parte inferior do para-choque é ativa e muda as entradas de ar dependendo da velocidade. O motor ainda não foi detalhado – a fabricante se limitou a dizer que será da família EcoBoost com start/stop. Para melhorar a visibilidade, existem câmaras que rodeiam todo o carro e projetam as imagens na tela central do painel.
Honda Urban SUV Concept
A Ford puxou a fila com o EcoSport em 2003. Hoje, todo mundo parece querer um pedaço do segmento de utilitários compactos. A Honda vai entrar na disputa com o modelo de produção que o conceito Urban SUV Concept vai gerar. Feito na plataforma do Fit, ele vai se situar abaixo do CR-V na linha da fabricante japonesa quando entrar em fabricação no ano que vem.
