The new-generation 2018 Kia Cerato will make its way to Australia by the middle of next year, the company has confirmed. We'll see the new sedan body here first, to be followed by the hatch later in the year. The new model's local launch schedule means we should see the car revealed earlier in the year, at either the Detroit motor show in January or later in March, at the Geneva show.

Aston Martin vice president and chief creative officer, Marek Reichman, says the significant styling contrast between the new Vantage and DB11 are thanks to extensive customer research, showing genuine buyers wanted greater differentiation in the brand's styling. In an exclusive interview with CarAdvice at the Tokyo motor show last month, Reichman said he was tired of people saying all Aston Martins look too alike.

The 2018 Infiniti QX50 has been teased again, ahead of its reveal at the Los Angeles motor show later this month, where the company's new turbo 2.0-litre engine will also debut. Scheduled for a November 28 unveiling, the second-generation QX50 appears to bear a strong resemblance to the smaller QX30 crossover – at least, based on the shadowy teaser image released this week.

British luxury sports car manufacturer Aston Martin has unveiled its long-awaited new-generation Vantage in a simultaneous global reveal across six major cities.

The new, imported-from-Japan Toyota Camry range has arrived in Australia, a month after the company closed the Melbourne factory that produced its predecessor for 30 years. And while Toyota no longer has the same incentive to retain those super-sharp real-world deals it offered on the old car - designed to drive demand, and thereby retain production at the required level to keep the Altona factory open until its scheduled close - the new Camry is extremely affordable nevertheless.
