GM hasn\u2019t fielded a minivan in years. Maybe if it offered one like this it would be popular. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The top-of-the-line version of the Buick GL8 minivan is priced at $76,470, and is built on an all-new architecture. Certainly, this rig is loaded with luxury in a way that U.S. Buicks haven\u2019t been for decades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Offered with four seats or six, the four-seat model comes with an in-vehicle partition with an integrated 32-inch sliding screen, perforated Nappa semi-aniline leather, 18-way adjustable seats with five-zone independent heating and 18-point zoned massage, flip-up footrests, 13-liter refrigerator, 366 LED-lit ceiling with multiple lighting modes, cabin air purification, 5G technology, premium carpets and a 21-speaker Bose Executive Edition sound system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
An intercom allows rear passengers to see and talk to the driver. Power comes courtesy of a 233-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with a 48-volt hybrid system and a nine-speed automatic transmission. Drivers also get a massive 30-inch screen and a head-up display. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nice, huh? How about nicer than any Cadillac sold here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Online photos leaked from GM show an instrument panel identical to the one used in the Buick Century. Built exclusively for China, it measures 196.7 inches long and 73.5 inches wide, it rides on a 114.4-inch wheelbase. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A 177-hp turbocharged 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine, and a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine with 227 hp is offered in the 2023 Lacrosse, whether they will carryover remains unknown.\u00a0A 9-speed automatic transmission is standard.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023 Chevrolet Montana<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nBuilt for the Brazilian market, this lifestyle-oriented front-wheel-drive truck lacks all-wheel drive, and is powered by a 133-hp 1.2-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder engine and a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission. Measuring 13.9 inches shorter than a Ford Maverick, this Lilliputian sports a 30.8 cubic-feet bed with a tonneau cover, much like the Hyundai Santa Cruz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In theory, it\u2019s not unlike a modern-day El Camino, with a front end reminiscent of the Chevrolet Blazer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Given that Americans prefer pickups, but one sense this could not be built affordably here, and if imported, it would be subject to the chicken tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There you can buy a Chevrolet Monza, powered by a 111-hp 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and a 6-speed dual clutch gearbox transmission or a 161-hp 1.3-liter 4-cylinder mild-hybrid system. The interior features dual 10.25-inch screens, an instrument cluster, the other an infotainment touchscreen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other amenities include Apple CarPlay integration, 23 storage compartments, rear air vents, a rear center headrest and a 14.3-cubic-foot trunk in a vehicle measuring 182.3-inches long. Prices start at a mere $13,695.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023 Jeep Avenger<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThis is a landmark vehicle for the brand, being Jeep\u2019s first battery-electric vehicle. Too bad it\u2019s sold everywhere except the U.S. At 161 inches long, it\u2019s small for a modern Jeep, but nearly three feet longer than the original Jeep CJ and more than 5 inches shorter than a Jeep Renegade, and has a 20-degree approach angle, a 32-degree departure angle and 7.9 inches of ground clearance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Initially, only a single electric motor model will be offered, with power going to the front wheels. A dual-motor, all-wheel drive 4xe model is due to follow sat some point in the future. Rated at 154 hp and 192 pound-feet of torque, power comes from a 54 kWh battery pack that can be fast charged at 100kW, meaning recharging from 20% to 80% takes 24 minutes.\u00a0A 10.3-inch infotainment touchscreen is standard, as is a 7-inch or 10.3-inch digital instrument cluster.

Offered in iCool and iEnjoy trim, the luxury sedan comes with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 27-inch infotainment screen. It comes with a feature that projects a starlit night sky inside the car, as well as ambient lighting with 128 colors, a virtual personal assistant, 13-speaker Revel audio system and Sync with vehicle-to-everything functionality. A 246-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine and 8-speed automatic transmission are standard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But some things never change, as the new Zephyr shares its platform and engine with the Ford Mondeo, which is also still being built, but only for China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This small but mighty Ram has a 1,653-pound payload capacity, 40.4 cubic feet of cargo space, and can tow 882 pounds of your favorite plaything.

Why such compact pickups aren\u2019t sold in pickup-crazy America is a mystery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perhaps its 176-inch length might be too emasculating for overly-sensitive American men. Then again, perhaps not. After all, Ford sold 74,370 Mavericks last year, while Hyundai retailed 36,480 Santa Cruz pickups.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Other amenities include Apple CarPlay integration, 23 storage compartments, rear air vents, a rear center headrest and a 14.3-cubic-foot trunk in a vehicle measuring 182.3-inches long. Prices start at a mere $13,695.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jeep Avenger<\/h3>\n\n\n\n2023 Jeep Avenger<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThis is a landmark vehicle for the brand, being Jeep\u2019s first battery-electric vehicle. Too bad it\u2019s sold everywhere except the U.S. At 161 inches long, it\u2019s small for a modern Jeep, but nearly three feet longer than the original Jeep CJ and more than 5 inches shorter than a Jeep Renegade, and has a 20-degree approach angle, a 32-degree departure angle and 7.9 inches of ground clearance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Initially, only a single electric motor model will be offered, with power going to the front wheels. A dual-motor, all-wheel drive 4xe model is due to follow sat some point in the future. Rated at 154 hp and 192 pound-feet of torque, power comes from a 54 kWh battery pack that can be fast charged at 100kW, meaning recharging from 20% to 80% takes 24 minutes.\u00a0A 10.3-inch infotainment touchscreen is standard, as is a 7-inch or 10.3-inch digital instrument cluster. The center console features wireless charging and can hold a 1.5-liter bottle. The cargo area can swallow 13 cubic feet of lifestyle debris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lincoln Zephyr<\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe Lincoln Zephyr<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe only country in the world where you can buy a new Lincoln sedan is China, where a redesigned Lincoln Zephyr debuted sporting many of the design cues seen in the forthcoming Lincoln Nautilus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Offered in iCool and iEnjoy trim, the luxury sedan comes with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 27-inch infotainment screen. It comes with a feature that projects a starlit night sky inside the car, as well as ambient lighting with 128 colors, a virtual personal assistant, 13-speaker Revel audio system and Sync with vehicle-to-everything functionality. A 246-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine and 8-speed automatic transmission are standard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But some things never change, as the new Zephyr shares its platform and engine with the Ford Mondeo, which is also still being built, but only for China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ram 700<\/h2>\n\n\n\n2023 Ram 700<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nStarting at $16,770, this trucklet is sold in Mexico and South America, where it competes with the Chevrolet Montana. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This small but mighty Ram has a 1,653-pound payload capacity, 40.4 cubic feet of cargo space, and can tow 882 pounds of your favorite plaything. Based on a Fiat Strada platform, it\u2019s offered in SLT Single or Crew Cab, as well as Big Horn or Laramie Crew Cab trim. Under the hood resides a 100-hp 1.3-liter mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard. Why such compact pickups aren\u2019t sold in pickup-crazy America is a mystery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perhaps its 176-inch length might be too emasculating for overly-sensitive American men. Then again, perhaps not. After all, Ford sold 74,370 Mavericks last year, while Hyundai retailed 36,480 Santa Cruz pickups.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
