Leaders in the European luxury automotive industry are rolling out highlights of their newest designs. Innovations are abundant in these upscale vehicle offerings.
BMW Z4 Roadster
The anticipated market launch for this luxury machine is scheduled for Spring 2013. The classic concept of the Roadster is honored in this updated model, but there is a distinct modern interpretation infused into the design. New exterior features, refined interior touches, and a full range of BMW ConnectedDrive features are just a few of the updates.
Porsche Macan
This new Porsche model differs radically from previous Porsche models, but may appeal to consumers seeking a luxury compact car option. Availability for this model with a disctinct VW vibe is slated for mid-2013, and will likely debut with a price tag in the low $40,000s.
2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA
Mercedes-Benz plans to offer its own version of a compact luxury car to compete with BMW’s 1 Series and Minis. The CLA will likely be powered by a 300-hp turbocharged four-cylinder motor and be equipped with all-wheel drive. Price points aren’t yet available for this model but estimates are hovering at around the mid-$30,000 range.
