General Motors (GM) has given a first look at its upcoming electric crossover, based on the Chevrolet Bolt. Mary Barra, CEO for GM, presented at the Barclay's 2017 Global Automotive Conference in New York this week, and cheekily revealed the new model ahead of its market introduction by 2020. Just a single image was shown, and we can see that the new little electric SUV definitely has its own design identity, though there are similarities between it and the Bolt (below).

Toyota has released a shadowy teaser of its new Future Toyota Adventure Concept (FT-AC) ahead of a global unveiling at the Los Angeles motor show. Not much has been revealed about the new vehicle, but it's clearly an SUV-styled model. Despite the darkened image, the FT-AC concept has angry-looking headlights, two LED light bars on each corner of the roof, and stacked LED fog-lights.

The next-generation Subaru WRX STI may not be launched for a considerable length of time, as the company decides what to do with its powertrain. David Dello Stritto, head of sales and marketing for Subaru Europe, admitted to AutoRAI.nl "there will be a period where we will temporarily not run WRX STI".

The Audi Q2 range has been bolstered by the addition of a performance-oriented 2.0 TFSI Sport variant, which kicks off at $48,500 before on-road costs. Serving as the petrol flagship, the Q2 2.0 TFSI features a 140kW/320Nm 2.0-litre turbo petrol, mated as standard to a dual-clutch transmission and Audi's quattro all-wheel drive system.

Eagle-eyed CarAdvice contributor Derek Fung has spotted Ferrari testing a variant of the Ferrari 812 Superfast on the streets of New York City this morning. On first glance, the vehicle in these images appears to be a bog standard 812 Superfast wearing a funky camouflage, which could indicate that it's undergoing homologation testing for the US market. But, the vehicle could also be testing new technology for the brand and could be the initial basis for the confirmed Ferrari SUV.
