There was no shortage of new car reveals at this year's NYC show, but if it felt like they all blended together, don't worry—our team on the floor has the highlights, and the lowlights, too
There were, admittedly, not too many blow-me-away supercar reveals, flashy performance models or boutique sports cars being shown off. Sure, Porsche showed us a 911 Speedster; and Nissan a 600-horsepower GT-R.
Nevertheless, our team on the floor of the Javits Center have picked apart the lot of close to two dozen new-car reveals and concepts, and come up with a list of the ones that we thought deserve the biggest thumbs up, and the fattest thumbs down, too. Speaking of redundancy, Nick Tragianis admits to falling for the new Toyota Yaris, basically because it’s the Mazda2 with a different automaker’s badge on it. His miss of the show is the Nissan 370Z 50th Anniversary Edition for being an ancient sports car with little more than a retro throwback sticker package.
The ever-practical Graeme Fletcher has high praise for Toyota’s Highlander and its low, low fuel consumption rating; the car was a hit not only among the Driving editors, but among readers, too. His least favourite was also an SUV, the Atlas Basecamp Concept from Volkswagen, an off-road utility that he can’t quite see many owners taking off-pavement at all.
