We Europeans have a love-hate relationship with American cars. Some we cried to have it in the garage, others… we watered it with gasoline.
In the aftermath of the Detroit Motor Show, we selected five models featured at the American event that we didn't mind seeing on our roads. Unconcerned about excessive consumption and the absurd size of some models we selected the 5 most desirable models.1- Nissan Titan Warrior
Prepared for an eventual apocalypse, this Japanese pick-up comes equipped with a 5-liter V8 turbodiesel engine, six-speed automatic transmission and high-profile tires. The entire underside of the Titan is covered in aluminum. Still in concept format, the production version shouldn't be too far away.
2- Honda Ridgeline
With an appearance but contained compared to the Nissan Titan, this pick-up has a capacity for 725kg of cargo and in terms of engine, we find a 3.5 liter V6 engine coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission. It offers several traction modes: Normal, Sand, Snow and Mud. It's the ideal Japanese pick-up truck to climb Mount Evarest, if we're headed for it…
3- GMC Acadia
Coming from a truck brand, the Acadia comes equipped with a 3.6 liter V6 engine with 310hp. Due to its interior space, it is the ideal SUV to take children, children's friends and children's friends to school. Fits all….NOT TO BE MISSED: The “Bombs” of North Korea
4- Ford F-150 Raptor SuperCrew
Equipped with a 3.5l EcoBoost V6 engine with more than 411hp, coupled with a 10-speed automatic transmission (yes, 10 speeds), it promises to be more powerful, efficient, agile than the previous generation.
5- Lincoln Continental
After a 14-year hiatus, Lincoln is back with the Continental. The top of the range of the American brand has a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 engine, with a power of 400hp and 542Nm of torque. Furthermore, it is equipped with all-wheel drive and various driving assistance systems. Find out more about the new bet of the American brand here.
