Today, we’re talking Sedans, starting with this thriller from Mercedes. The Maybach S600 exploded into the uber-luxury market simultaneously at the Los Angeles and Guangzhou auto shows. The first model in the Mercedes-Maybach lineup, the S600, is based heavily on the S-Class sedan. Not intending to fill the void in the ultra-luxury space left by the previous Maybach models, the V-12-powered S600 will instead offer S-Class buyers a more luxurious experience in a familiar lineup.
The Cadillac ATS-V Sedan expands Cadillac’s performance program right down to the entry-level, giving it a high horsepower makeover. The ATS-V features a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V-6 that’s good for 455 horses. A magnetically-adjustable suspension system, the availability of a carbon fiber package, Recaro seats, and a track package with a performance data recorder are also offered. It’s a gem.
On the heels of the launch of the revised Dodge Charger sedan comes a refreshed Chrysler 300 sedan, the American four-door with the iconic name dating back to 1955. It’s got an updated, sharper look, but it is definitely a 300 through and through. A host of technological advancements will be available, including forward collision warnings and adaptive cruise control.
Mercedes’ new C Sedans now possess more luxury features as well a larger footprint. Longer, wider, and roomier, the C Class is now a step above where it previously lived. Power comes from a choice of two engines. The 2.0-liter turbocharged four generates 241 horsepower, while the turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 generates 329 horsepower. A seven-speed automatic handles transmission chores.
This is an important one – the Audi Concept called the Prologue, essentially dictates what all future Audis will look like, and most specifically, serves as the foundation for the flagship A9 which will launch in 2017. The wider and more progressive front grille is distinctive. So is the sweeping roofline and giant window cutout that lacks a B-pillar. The icing on the cake? 587 horsepower under the hood.
