Mazda 6
Estimated cost: $28,000
Forget about the front-drive four-cylinder. The up and coming Mazda will be running on a new online-six with Skyactiv-X spark-controlled compression ignition. The soon to be eight-speed automatic will also offer all-wheel drive.
While the powertrain will be dropped, but the latest Mazda patents demonstrate some great electrification ideas such as an electric motor positioned on the gas engine with extra inner-wheel electric motors.
Subaru WRX
Estimated cost: $30,000
This high-performance sedan has some serious new underpinnings and a reshaped bodywork. Key staple features have been maintained in the new version with things like standard all-wheel drive and a powerful turbocharged flat-four engine.
The current 268-hp 2.0-liter four-cylinder will be replaced for a more powerful and larger 2.4-liter unit, too.
Toyota GR86
Estimated cost: $30,000
Expect big changes for Toyota. This edition will be the product of co-developed Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ. The 2.4-liter turbocharged unit that makes 260 hp and 277 lb-ft in the Subaru Ascent will certainly outdo the current Toyobaru.
Toyota is presumed to provide the underpinnings for the new coupes, and will likely be a variant of the automaker's modular TNGA platform.
BMW I4
Estimated cost: $50,000
This BMW's first attempt at making a midsize EV, simultaneously, it's also a great competitor to the Tesla Model 3. With an all-new exterior, the EPA-estimated range of 270 miles(fully-charged) will dash from 0 to 60 mph in 4.0 seconds.
The i4 will also virtually self-driving as it comes packed with sensors and radars. It might also be the first car to get a redesigned BMW logo.
Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
Estimated cost: $100,000
Since drifting from its Super-Leicht roots, the newly redesigned SL is starting from scratch as an AMG. This vehicle has the next-gen performance of a sports car like that of GT S, GT C, and GT R supercars.
The folding hard-top convertible roof also sets it apart from the lot. Balancing between AMG GT roadster style and the S-Class Cabriolet, this car is something special.
