It’s been years since Mitsubishi promises us his arrival in North America, and this time seems to be good. If this is the case, the Outlander PHEV could become the first SUV plug-in hybrid offered at “affordable” prices on the canadian market.

Rolls-Royce Phantom

The Phantom is not a car of luxury for the 1%. It is an icon, definitely. And this icon has been totally renewed to 2018, for the first time since its resurrection in 2003. Bigger, more luxurious, more powerful, more techno… the Phantom is a gigantic living room on wheels. A lounge that can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.3 seconds and reach a speed of 250 km/h.

Lamborghini Aventador S

Like the Jetta, the Kia Forte 2019 has just been unveiled in Detroit. Kia has thought it a good idea to bring a copy to Montreal in order to present it to visitors at the Show. With this new generation, Kia hopes to carve out a place of choice in the compact car segment, currently dominated by the Honda Civic.

Toyota Kikai Concept

At Toyota, it was decided to spoil the visitors of the auto Show of Montreal with a concept rather than burst, the Kikai. Don’t expect to see it land at your dealer soon!

To replace the Juke, Nissan will import now the Kicks on the north american market. Only available with a gear-train to two-wheel drive and a four-cylinder engine of 125 horsepower, the Kicks 2018 will arrive at dealers in Quebec at the beginning of the summer.

Cadillac Escala Concept

Germain Goyer

At Cadillac, we decided to show to visitors of the auto Show what the future holds for the prestigious american brand. The Escala is not a model that one wants to market, but rather an exercise of style that heralds the future of design by the manufacturer. The next generation of the CT6, maybe?
