2015 Volvo S60 Cross Country

This is the first instance of Volvo applying the Cross Country name -- which debuted on the XC70 station wagon back in 1998 -- to a sedan, but when the car was first announced a few days ago it seemed like a logical use of the all-wheel drive mechanicals already offered on the V60 station wagon.


The S60 Cross Country features a ride height increased by 2.5 inches, and of course comes with Volvo's all-wheel drive system. This version of the S60 will ride on a choice of 18-inch and 19-inch wheels wearing high-profile tires. The sedan will also feature plastic cladding around the wheelarches, but not to an extreme degree, with the raised ride height being the best tell-tale sign that this is the Cross Country version.


The S60 Cross Country will be paired with the T5 engine, producing 250 hp....that's the turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder powerplant also available in the V60 Cross Country, not to be confused with the new Drive-E T5 engine, which is very much a four-cylinder. The T5 five-cylinder will be the only engine offered in the S60 Cross Country, however.

2016 Cadillac CTS-V

Under the hood of the new 200 MPH CTS-V is a monstrous 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine that makes 640 HP and 630 lb-ft. of torque. Paired to an eight-speed automatic, this powertrain configuration may sound somewhat familiar and that’s because it’s not too far off what’s available in the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Despite the CTS-V weighing 4,145 lbs., it can sprint from 0-60 MPH in just 3.7 seconds. Despite the CTS-V weighing 4,145 lbs.

BMW 3.0CSL shown here is the proper race car, weight at just 1,102 kg (2,431 lbs) and powered by a trademark 3.2-liter inline 6-cylinder engine making 344 HP. Ratings would go as high as 430 HP on other models towards the end of its lifespan.


[I]Speaking about the car, BMW USA Chief, Ludwig Willisch said that “at Sebring in 75, this car secured the first victory for our new American company. And other victories - such as Daytona a year later – followed. Yet, the CSL's greatest achievement was to help firmly establish the company as the maker of the Ultimate Driving Machine.”

2016 Nissan Titan

The new pickup will be available with two sizes of fully boxed frames, with the larger sporting the Titan XD nameplate. It will also be roughly 20-inches longer than the standard model and will be powered by a Cummins-sourced 5.0-liter V8 diesel engine packing 310 hp and 555 lb-ft of torque mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.


The lineup will also consist of gasoline V6 and V8 engines that will be available at a later date. What makes the 2016 Nissan Titan XD unique is the fact that the Cummins diesel engine will allow it to compete in a category that doesn’t quite exist, bridging the gap between half-ton and three-quarter ton pickups. That means maximum towing will be over 12,000 lbs while maximum payload will sit above 2,000 lbs. In total, Nissan will offer the 2016 Titan with three cab configurations, two frame sizes and three powertrains along with five trim levels, making it one versatile pickup.
