2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe

While we're still awaiting the arrival of some of the new-for-2015 models, automakers have started pulling the sheets off their all-new and redesigned cars, trucks and SUVs for the 2016 model year. At European auto shows earlier in the year, Audi unwrapped the third-generation TT coupe and roadster for 2016, and we also got our first looks at the 2016 Volvo XC90 and 2016 Smart Fortwo (and 4-door Forfour, which may or may not make its way to our shores). Things got even more serious at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, where Honda and Mazda showed two all-new subcompact SUVs: the 2016 Honda HR-V and 2016 Mazda CX-3. Next was the Detroit Auto Show, where Acura finally unveiled the production version of its hot new NSX, Chevy flipped the switch on the next-generation Volt, and Buick dropped the top on its first convertible in 25 years. The full-size and midsize truck segments also got more interesting with all-new versions of the Nissan Titan and Toyota Tacoma. February, March and April will bring us the Chicago, Geneva and New York auto shows, and an even clearer look at the new cars heading our way for the 2016 model year.
