  1. 2017 Los Angeles Auto Show Wrap Up - Luxury Crossovers and SUVs: Comments

    Drew Dowdell replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in LA Auto Show
    I would take anything from the RR lineup over the Lexus lineup any day. The lease deals that RR is having on the Discovery lately have me

    Forrester, but basically yes. Subaru is playing it safe, but they'll sell the crap out of them. That said, they did a fantastic job on the interior. As long as getting the most cubic feet for your dollar isn't a concern, these will be very popular.

    I don't care about off-roading much... and if I did go off-road, I wouldn't take a $125k vehicle. I'd rather have a Navigator and a new Wrangler.... I'd probably spend less money in the process.

    I, myself, would love a Metris 63 AMG 4matic E-Hybrid Blutec...... coupe.

    A 3.0 liter 6 that also has eAssist and only has 400hp.... doesn't sound that impressive to me. Infiniti, GM, Ford, FCA, all have V6 engines that meet, straddle, or beat that kind of performance without eAssist. Volvo does it with a 4-cylinder and a usable EV-only range (it's also a fantastic powertrain, the only credible V8 replacement currently). GM's 4-cylinder hybrid has just as much torque and can also operate in EV-only mode for 30+ miles, a lot longer than the Benz can. So... tell me where I should be impressed again?

    My Little Orphan Annie Ovaltine Secret decoder ring hasn't arrived yet... How am I supposed to decode German model names and trim lines?!?

    Not as wide, not as tall. Interior room feels much smaller

    I think I was mostly shocked by the Eclipse Cross. It really could be Mitsubishi's Hail Mary pass.

    The Range Rover is also significantly smaller. The LX is nearly Escalade/Navigator sized. My point was that it doesn't make sense to have a significantly different configuration for a vehicle that only sells 600 a month.

    The 3rd-row delete on the LX doesn't make sense to me. They don't sell enough of them for it to matter much.

    The batteries could actually be an advantage. Can use them to change the weight distribution.

    Yeah, I really think that it was enough of a visual update that they should have done it. The Nautilus is not that different from the MKX on the touchy feely stuff that it deserved a new name and the MKC didn't.

    Hinges, sure. exposed screw heads on the interior, definitely no. On the exterior.. eh it depends where they are.
