BMW has revamped its 1-Series hatchback, which is sold in markets outside the U.S. Although this model is not destined for American shores, the enhancements are expected to appear in a refreshed 2-Series Gran Coupe. The introduction of the updated 1-Series aligns with BMW’s new approach to model naming conventions.
Lamborghini is on the verge of unveiling the highly anticipated successor to the Huracán, which is rumored to be named the Temerario. This new model is said to integrate a twin-turbo V-8 with three electric motors, generating an astonishing total output exceeding 887 horsepower.
Despite lackluster sales figures for Cadillac’s present sedan lineup, the company is not retreating from this market segment. The head of General Motors’ design division has confirmed the future release of a new Cadillac sedan, which is expected to be an electric vehicle.
