Chicago Auto Show
Since its inception in 1901, the Chicago Auto Show has become the largest auto show in North America. Held every February at the gigantic McCormick Place convention center, the Chicago Auto Show opens for its 111th edition today. In 2019, Land Rover unveiled the Range Rover Evoque 2020, Subaru unveiled the recently redesigned Legacy, and Kia introduced the all-new Telluride SUV for the 2020 season. do not Present this year, BMW and Mercedes are taking their breath away from the auto lounges circuit in 2019, but almost every other mainstream and luxury automaker is present.
A few days before the show opens to the public, the car press is invited to walk through the vast exhibition space (approximately one million square feet) to get closer and become familiar with the vehicles on display. If you can not go to the Chicago Auto Show, here is what you miss.
SUVs and crossovers
-
The Range Rover Evoque 2020 comes with a hybrid option.

Jaguar Land Rover is on a kick out of electrification, planning to offer electric and hybrid vehicles across its entire lineup from here to 2021.
Eric Bangeman
-
The I-Pace Jaguar 100% electric. I drove one for a week in the heart of Chicago's winter. It's an incredibly fun ride, but like all electric vehicles, the range suffers from biting cold.
Eric Bangeman
-
I went to the auto show in one of these, a 2019 Acura RDX.

-
See the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio m & # 39; s recalled good memories.

The five-seater Porsche Cayenne is new in 2019.

I'm not a fan of the "acid green" trim that Porsche uses for its hybrids. It sounds like the head coach of the Oregon Ducks could drive to the Autzen stadium.
Eric Bangeman
-
The real Toyota Land Cruiser, off-road, is turning 60 this year.
I mainly look at sport utility vehicles and crossovers, as our automotive editor, Jonathan Gitlin, hates everything with a center of gravity greater than the height of the ankle. Fortunately, some SUVs caught my attention during the show.

Sport utility vehicles account for about 70% of car sales in the United States these days. But if the above vehicles do not reveal it, the Chicago Auto Show is much more than just SUVs and crossover vehicles.

It's the first Revero Karma I've ever seen. The PHEV sedan starts at about $ 125,000.
