The best cars in 2014
What follows is something more than pure speculation, the truth of this statement coming outline of all these cars are known and many details are also not everything is locked and some, but this time the OEM is are committed to all the tools of production and are deep into planning their launch marketing attacks are cars where the wait will be worth it.
And 14 months is not so long to wait after all the zombie Apocalypse is probably at least 16 months away Probably.
14 2014 Ferrari Enzo is unlikely that it will be called Enzo supercar, but this is the Ferrari built for success this legend now ten years old, as the Enzo, its structure is made of carbon fiber, with the mid-mounted V12 engine a stiffening element but it should move about 7 V12 3-liter towers about 10 000 revolutions per minute and do something like 800 horsepower.
But beyond 800 hp, the new Enzo will feature a Formula 1 KERS kinetic style system of energy recovery which adds a battery and an electric motor drivetrain So when 800 hp just enough isn t, the KERS components will kick to provide additional burst of 120 hp you know, when you really need 920 hp.
If you want one when it goes on sale in early 2013, do not expect much change from your bill 1 million So bring with you two.
13 2014 Alfa Romeo 4C If Alfa will return to the US market, it must do so with a car that s spectacular that two C s in this spectacular and Alfa has four of them.
Think of the midengine, 4C RWD as four-cylinder Ferrari Ferrari doesn t build and you got a solid bead on that Alfa is trying to achieve Shown in concept form at the Auto Show in Geneva 2011, the 4C is built around a central bath with carbon fiber crash structures front and rear aluminum bolted and is small think Fiat 500 least 8 inches tall, it should weigh less than 2000 pounds when it goes into production.
4C is from a feed 1 8 liters turbocharged, 4 by approximately 230 hp It will be supported by an automated manual transmission with double clutch, the empty weight light means performance should be more scintillating than the modest production Our estimate suggests engine is a 0-60 time under 5 seconds.
Production of this magnificent idiot will be limited and with prices starting at around 50K, 4C won t be cheap.
December 2014 Jaguar F-Type Jaguar makes a play to save his own soul with the introduction of the new F-Type roadster 2014 It Sá pure two-seater sports roadster powered by a new supercharged V6 if the questions of history, we re guess a 3 liter displacement 8 should make about 380 hp with its compact size, the ZF eight-speed transmission and the open cockpit, he is philosophically closer to a 911 than a high-end exotic so expect to be a price as the 911, with prices starting at 80K range.
November 2014 Aston Martin Vanquish Forget half measures Aston Martin DBS The Vanquish is roaring back packing a new version of 6 liter V12 0 Aston estimated at 563 hp Considerably more voluptuous than previous Astons, the new Vanquish will impress with its beauty all carbon fiber as 563 horsepower may not be enough.
Aston has already announced the price just make 279,995 plus taxes and allowed your local dealer if you want to drive a home.
October 2014 Cadillac CTS The current, second-generation Cadillac CTS sedan is the backbone of the luxury division of GM sales so do not expect too Caddy screw with the personality of the CTS as it transfers to the car the new Alpha It should, however, be much more refined in appearance, functionality of the interface of the touch panel driver CUE, and an interior that emphasizes the elegance of gimmicks.
The most intriguing element of the next CTS will be a twin-turbo edition V6 direct injection of GM to replace the current car 3 to 6 liters, naturally aspirated engine By striking movement up to 3 liters 0 and by adding GM new automatic seven-speed manual transmissions and or fuel economy should rise to 31 or 32 mpg on the highway without significant loss of performance.
As for the CTS-V, which will have to wait until 2015 to appear alongside any more O Corvettes appear.
September 2014 SRT Viper Roadster 1992 Dodge original Viper RT 10 was a roadster and the Viper 2014 SRT will also be available as a roadster Just think Coupe Viper shown in New York, the auto show this year with its 640 hp, August 3 -liter chassis and V10 intact core but with a roof which descends that is all.
And as the G8, the upcoming 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is a product of the Australian Holden division of GM and essentially a reworked version of what's sold there as the Commodore It is also the same car that the police vehicle current Caprice is based that's not a bad thing after all, the design of the base frame Commodore which also underpins the Camaro closely resembles that of a BMW 5 series, the MacPherson strut front multilink system at the holding tail.
The SS will use a slightly shorter wheelbase than the Caprice police car but under the hood expect the same engines that the cops That means power base will likely direct injection V6 making 3 of 6 liters, say, 323 hp with the Camaro 6 2-liter 426-hp V8 option.
And yes, the SS will be the car that all NASCAR teams GM will base their riders from the 2013 season.
July 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class The Mercedes more Mercedes S-Class is all aluminum The new range will be, as usual, vast, starting with lopers V6 diesel power used as service vehicles delivered in Berlin rising to AMG tuned wonderwagens V12 biturbo But all versions even the inevitable hybrid benefit from a new aluminum structure that strikes the weight of the large sedan yet without compromising the structure or safety.
The most interesting S-Class variant may well be a Pullman model rumored to take over for failed Maybach models that are euthanized horse on an extended wheelbase beyond even the long S-Class wheelbase, the Pullman can be car purchase if you are looking for a good Christmas gift for the Pope.
June 2014 Scion FR-S Convertible preferred car every auto journalist of 2013 Sá that Subaru will be beheaded or Scion for 2014 With the exception of the new soft top, do not expect many more changes in the structure and content FR -S motor 2 0 liter flat 4 will always be at the front, the rear wheels are always driven and handling will still entertaining bogglingly mind.
But this is only the beginning of the good news that's coming for these twins See, it's this thing called forced induction.
May 2014 Subaru BRZ STI If s criticism of the Subaru BRZ itchy, it is that he has not enough power on board back in 2011 Subaru showed a slight BRZ STI concept with a valvetrain pinched the company was good for that's 250 hp to 50 hp on regular BRZ, but hardly what the core Subie hoped.
Nope What fans really want is a blown Subaru STI with 300 or more HP and rumors continue to flow into what is what is coming to reality But do not necessarily expect it to be a turbocharger to loosening ; there are whispers out there that say a supercharger drive belt will take residence at the top of 4 flat Know a fan, like a Top Fuel dragster.
April 2014 BMW M3 and M4 or BMW M3 is the fulcrum on which rocks crazed world speed and big changes are coming for 2014.
First, the versions of the 3 Series two-door can become the series 4 And if it will be called 4 Series, do not be surprised if the M-version is called M4.
The sedan can still be the M3 If there is an M3 sedan.
Second, the high-revving 4 V8 0-liter M3 current is dead, dead, dead in his place, it will be the first M3 M4 with supercharged power plant two breathless fans in a straight-6 online The best estimate displacement is 3 0 liters and, thanks to the signs of direct injection and variable valve timing, a power of about 450 hP.
March 2014 Cadillac ATS-V If GM is serious about meeting the head of the German competition with its compact ATS sedan, it needs an ATS-V that humiliates the next M3 or M4 and RS4 Here s where rumors and speculation position.
The ATS is built on a new Alpha platform GM, which will be erected next CTS and Chevrolet Camaro This means that the Alpha is flexible enough to accommodate Ecotec engines ranging from ovens to Wheezer more robust in V8s inventory GM as well as hybrid and diesel engines and anything in between course, braking systems and suspension will be properly fortified and body aggressively redecorated.
The most reliable rumor mongers have the ATS-V get the same direct injection 5 5 liter small block V8 fifth generation that's going on in the Corvette C7 If this naturally aspirated engine with 460 hp, it would put the ATS-V has 100 comfortable behind the supercharged ponies February 6 liter V8 small block in the CTS-V Throw in a choice of manual or automatic transmissions new seven-speed all the delicious sounds.
February 2014 Porsche 918 Spyder Porsche produces brilliant cars in the last 25 years, but it has not built a fan mind since the 959 debuted in 1986, but the 918 Spyder promises to fry short temporal synapses and lobes -Circuit with amazing efficiency.
The 918 is the most aggressive application of the gasoline-electric hybrid technology still there two synchronous AC electric motors front and rear power whatever set of wheels is suitable and then when dynamos are Tuckered out a 570- hp-crank flat, dry 4 -sump 6 liter V8 derived endurance Porsche runners come into play but scratches the carbon fiber surface of the technological wonders of this car, computers balance while braking to recovery effort management and the actions of his seven-speed transmission to produce maximum performance.
For about 850,000, buyers of the 918 Spyder will have a car that should run from zero to 60 in less than 3 seconds, push a comprehensive bill 100 mph in about 6 seconds blitz through the quarter mile in a affects more than 10 seconds and cover the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit N 7 minutes 22 seconds Meanwhile, since electrically operate in low speed, you'll be able to lead to a rash of veggie burger Sierra club and totally guilt- without gasoline.
January 2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 about 59 years and three weeks ago, the first production Corvette jumped off an assembly line in St. Louis, Missouri What better way could there be for GM to celebrate the Vette six grand- O than by the production of the first seventh -generation Corvette June 30, 2013.
Since C7 Intelligence Report from Inside Line last November, our findings have only grown stronger C7 continue to be front engine, feature a transaxle mounted to the rear frame and backbone The body will be brand new, but it will always poured into real fiberglass However, it appears increasingly clear that under each C7 will be built in lightweight extruded aluminum and put a little more inches between pairs before and wheels for rear and base engine is likely to be an all-aluminum, 5 5- liter direct injection, variable timed valve, valves V8 in the first head member of the small vector fifth generation block V8 is 460 hp too hope this new engine and should be taken into supported by the new manual seven-speed automatic transmissions.
As for the Z06 and ZR1, do not wait for the 2014, but some time around 2015 or both should reappear with a twin-turbo V8 making around 700 hp or more to humiliate the SRT Viper and Shelby GT500.
Cars for cooler 2014, cars, 2014, naturally aspirated engine.
