Nissan has revealed the IMs concept at the 2019 Detroit motor show, a high-riding electric sedan which could preview a new design direction for the Japanese brand. Dubbed as a "study in duality and contrast", the IMs concept claims to be in a segment of its own as an "elevated sports sedan".

Renault has launched a bargain basement version of the Trafic van in Australia designed for urban delivery drivers, priced at a pretty compelling $29,990 drive-away for ABN holders. This puts it in the same ballpark as the Chinese LDV G10 diesel’s ABN price of $28,990, and undercuts the base Volkswagen Transporter Runner TDI250 model by $5000.

The new Cadillac XT6 crossover has been unveiled ahead of its in-the-flesh debut at the 2019 Detroit motor show. Design-wise the new seven-seat SUV has front and rear ends largely inspired by the 2016 Escala concept, although it misses out on that vehicle's slinky proportions and silhouette.

Tesla will be dropping the entry-level versions of the Model S and Model X from January 14, the company's CEO has confirmed via Twitter – as usual. Elon Musk tweeted that customers have until the end of the coming weekend (ending January 13) to place their order for a 75kWh Model S or Model X. "Starting on Monday, Tesla will no longer be taking orders for the 75kWh version of the Model S & X. If you’d like that version, please order by Sunday night," Musk said in his tweet.

The Toyota Supra has surfaced once again, this time through the official reveal video presumably meant to be shown at the reborn sports car's unveiling in Detroit on January 14. During the 45-second clip, the red coupe can be seen revving its turbocharged inline six, and tearing up a dark under-bridge car park. It also confirms the leaked images from a fortnight ago were legitimate, with the exterior design looking just like the leaked promotional images.
