The Mitsubishi Lancer has been in production for 43 years, with the current generation soldiering on for almost a decade. That’s how big a memory it is going to be after this August.

GMC has revealed their all-new 2018 Terrain crossover at the 2017 Detroit Auto Show. Built on GMC’s D2XX platform, the 2018 Terrain resembles the bigger Acadia in many ways, but GMC has done quite a bit of work to keep the brothers differentiated visually.
Lexus has just launched their all-new fifth-generation LS sedan at the 2017 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. It will be longer, lower and wider than the outgoing model that’s been dragging on for the past decade with just facelifts. And it will now be called the LS 500

Maruti Suzuki in India has previewed a new addition to their portfolio which might find its way into the Middle Eastern market. The Ignis, as it’s called, is a funky micro-crossover aimed at the “urban” youth. The Ignis is based on the Ignis Trail concept revealed at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show. If the Ignis makes it, its arrival will offer a bit of contrast to the otherwise sedate Suzuki lineup in the Middle East.
