So, what I learned on the 2013 NAIAS is...
1) The Corvette C7 Stingray is probably the best car in the show...
2) Chevrolet showcased global cars in the booth
3) 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee minor change offers an 8-speed automatic as applied on the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger. For the first time, a diesel engine was offered for this minor change.
4) SRT Grand Cherokee is no longer referred to as SRT8. Remember, SRT is now Chrysler's brand now so it seems that other models wearing the SRT8 badge would follow suit as well, especially that the new SRT Grand Cherokee now comes with an 8-speed gearbox.
5) Infiniti Q50 is the next Nissan Skyline, except the fact that it has a 3.7L V6 and a hybrid engine. Wonder if the next Skyline V37 would follow suit as well...
6) 2014 Lexus IS is a little present for someone named Houki. She said that it will still offer the same 2.5L and 3.5L V6 engine while a hybrid model is planned, with the new 2.5L hybrid engine as applied on the 14th generation Toyota Crown.
7) E63 AMG minor change now comes with the S-model, which gives them four-wheel drive! CLS63 AMG models follow suit as well.
8) Cadillac ATS is 2013 North American Car of the Year while RAM 1500 is 2013 North American Truck of the Year
9) Acura NSX Concept II now showcasing its interior for the first time
10) Acura MDX Prototype hints next generation model
11) Ford Atlas pickup previews next-generation of Ford F-Series trucks to rival against the Silverado. This one's for you, Dave.
12) Honda Urban SUV Concept previews a new rival to the Nissan Juke and it will be based on the the next generation Honda Fit.
13) Hyundai HCD-14 Concept hints of a second-generation Genesis saloon.
14) MKC Concept hints a possible new crossover from The Lincoln Motor Company
15) Nissan Resonance Concept hints a next generation Murano
16) Toyota Furia concept previews global-market eleventh Corolla
