In Pictures: Hey Guys! These Cars Are Worth Waiting For 2017–2021
Cars! cars! Cars! oh how i love them. I get butterflies when i see 'dem' lovely cars, like when expecting prince charming's arrival. So i have decided to look into the future for top cars to look out for this year and beyond and in no particular order, i present to y'all Photos from my top list after the cut...
2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio
The latest in a string of Italian blasphemies that should make the Pope blush and will undoubtedly be the best-selling Alfa Romeo in the U.S. A turbo 2.0-liter four makes 280 hp and pairs with an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. For more power, the Quadrifoglio flaunts a 505-hp 2.9-liter turbo V-6; an adaptive suspension is standard. Alfa claims a zero-to-60 time of 3.9 seconds. Inside, the Stelvio offers an optional 900-watt Harman/Kardon audio system, but we’re pretty sure that sweet engine is all you’ll want to hear.
2018 Audi RS5
Audi’s monster version of the new A5 coupe. It’s powered by a furious twin-turbocharged V-6, fitted with a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system, and comes wearing a wide body that evokes, for some of us, the original Sport Quattro rally cars. For the first time, there will be a four-door RS5 Sportback; the RS5 cabriolet is gone. Europe gets an RS4 Avant with the same powertrain, but due to the U.S. market’s aversion to wagons, don’t expect it to appear on these shore.
2019 BMW 3-series
The next generation of the quintessential compact sports sedan. BMW has traditionally offered a four-door sedan and a station wagon, but we hope the misleadingly named “Gran Turismo” hunchback will remain without a successor. The 3-series used to be the car that everyone tried to emulate, but while sales remain strong, it has been surpassed in dynamics, interior quality, and design. With the next gen, BMW has the chance to recapture sports-sedan supremacy. We hear the design will be far more progressive and daring than the current 5- and 7-series, and that’s another step BMW must take.
2018 BMW X2
A rebodied derivative of the BMW X1, slightly less practical and more sporty-looking. Sort of what the X4 is to the X3, the X6 is to the X5,
and blonde Rihanna is to natural Rihanna. It’ll have a low-slung
shooting-brake roofline and a windswept shape, and down the road there
might even be a convertible version.
2018 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
The Corvette Stingray topped 40,000 sales for the 2016 model year, just cause for celebration. To give the C7 generation a rousing send-off, Chevrolet will pop corks as it resurrects the venerable ZR1 nameplate later this year.
2018 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500
The most steroidal colt in Ford’s stable, with a higher number in its name and more power under the hood than any other production Mustang. Ford needs an answer to Dodge’s 707-hp Challenger SRT Hellcat and Chevy’s 650-hp
2018 Ferrari 488 Special Edition
Proof of the glorious insecurity that motivates the Maranello folk. The 488GTB already leads its segment in both speed and excitement, but the forthcoming stripped-and-whipped version will be even quicker and more thrilling. Its predecessors have been named Speciale, Scuderia, and Challenge Stradale, but we’re predicting l’ultimo 488 will carry a different suffix.
2018 Infiniti QX50
Infiniti’s replacement for the aged QX50, the crossover formerly known as EX35.
2018 Jaguar I-Pace
It’s been less than 10 years since Jaguar stopped building the self-consciously retro-styled S-type sedan. You remember, the car with a grille exactly the shape of a wall-mounted urinal? But have a look at the I-Pace, which the company will begin selling in a little more than a year’s time, and you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s been 50 years since the S-type. Or rather, you’d be forgiven for thinking that the two couldn’t possibly have come from the same carmaker.
2021 Jeep Grand WagoneerHow is it that, in a market gone gaga for three-row SUVs, there’s not a single Jeep with a way-back seat? Armchair product planners might think this an oversight, while FCA shareholders no doubt consider it tantamount to corporate malfeasance. The good news is that not one but two are coming, resurrecting the storied Wagoneer nameplate.
2018 Lamborghini Huracan Performante
The
lightening-and-quickening makeover that Lambo uses to lift the appeal
of its models as they approach middle age. The Superleggera name will
not return, but the superlight philosophy to which it refers certainly
will, meaning the ultimate Huracán will be around 90 pounds lighter, as
well as sharper and faster than the regular car.
Mercedes-AMG Project One
Internally
called Project One, this top-level hypercar (think Ferrari LaFerrari
and Porsche 918 Spyder) is being designed to mark the pinnacle of
race-car engineering with extensive technology transfer from Formula 1.
Coincidentally, it will also mark AMG’s 50th anniversary. It’s not
intended to crack top-speed records like the Bugatti Veyron and Chiron,
but it is intended to be supremely capable on the racetrack.
2018 Ram Rebel
Ram’s answer to the Ford F-150 Raptor.
2018 Toyota C-HR
A Nissan Juke competitor. We know it’s hard to believe, but apparently there’s a burgeoning market out there for them.
Volvo XC40
Scandinavian design for the masses in crossover, sedan, and eventually wagon shapes, no assembly required.
