2021 New Cars

The next-generation Volkswagen Caddy has been teased again ahead of its debut in February. While the sketches issued by the company last month had a much more sporty front end with a wraparound windscreen, and slim headlights with teardrop extensions, the latest images supplied by Volkswagen paint a much more conservative — and likely more accurate — picture of the upcoming van.

The next-generation Mercedes-Benz SL has been spied ahead of its global launch some time in 2021. Last year Tobias Moers, head of Mercedes-AMG, confirmed his division was leading development of the new SL, which rumours indicate will be available exclusively as a roadster.

Lucid’s rival to the Tesla Model S, an electric car called simply the Air, is set to debut in production form in April at this year’s New York motor show. The company has said its unveiling will be accompanied by specifications, pricing and configuration information for the production model. That indicates the pricing information the company revealed all the way back in 2017 is no longer accurate.

Ford has released a teaser video of the new Bronco off-roader ahead of its expected unveiling at the Detroit Motor Show mid year. However news for Australian fans is still not good. Ford is yet to confirm a right-hand-drive program for the US-built model, even though it is based on the Ranger ute designed and engineered in Australia.

Small sports coupe fans breathed a sigh of relief last year when it was revealed the Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ had been officially renewed for a second generation. Now, there’s even more good news: Autocar reports the second-generation twins will see a big bump in power. Like the current models, the new coupes will use a Subaru powertrain.
