Jaguar's 1st SUV wasn't in Montreal for the auto show but it is included in the brochure . The 2017 Jaguar F-Pace
It doesn't happens often to me when it comes to Jaguar but it.
Now.... reliability issues ( well, its a new model but if it follows his family's steps... ) and the fact that it surely costs " a few bucks " more than what i have in my pocket are the main reasons why its not on my list for my next vehicle

It has been announced several times, but this time it seems they made one more step into the production of new DeLorean models with original parts:
http://wtkr.com/2016/01/27/delorean-going-back-into-production-for-the-first-time-in-over-30-years/
So maybe we'll have 2017-model-year DMC cars on the site?

I wonder what engine they will use? The old PRV V6 is out of the question, I guess, so maybe these new DeLoreans will answer the big criticism of the original ones and have a powerful engine (knowing Americans probably a powerful V8) and a decent turn of speed?

I'm far from being a fan of Renault, but let's not forget their new vehicles.

∗ 2015+ Renault Espace V
Sold from April 2015 onwards. For now, only as LHD.
∗ 2015+ Renault Kadjar
Sold too from April 2015 onwards, and also available for those who ride on the wrong side of the road
• Sold since January 14, here is the Renault Mégane IV (fr):

There was in 2012 this nice video about making Electric DeLoreans:

Looks like that Espace is channeling an early 1950s bullet-nose Studebaker

Scion, Toyota's youth brand in North America, will soon be dead. Toyota has pulled the plug for model year 2017.
"As part of the brand transition, beginning in August 2016, MY17 Scion vehicles will be rebadged as Toyotas. The FR-S sports car, iA sedan and iM 5-door hatchback will become part of the Toyota family. The tC sports coupe will have a final release series edition and end production in August 2016. The C-HR, which recently debuted at the L.A. Auto Show, will be a part of the Toyota line-up."

Sad, they were fun to visit in the Montreal Auto Show ( except for the music )
I guess i'll leave my earphones package unopened then..
As Toyota does have an environment-friendly policy ( leaning on a Toyota Sequoia while saying this.. ) they don't give brochures anymore but Scion did gave earphones in 2014 ( with a little pic of each model on the package )
Another sad thing is the loss of jobs. The cars are migrating to Toyota but might be a different story for some employees...

I don't think there will be a loss of jobs, as the cars were sold in Toyota dealers anyway.

yeah, you're right, probably everybody will get transferred to Toyota ...

The team in charge of rebadging the cars (designing new front/rear) won't be happy

But what are they going to do with the Scion iA ? It's a rebadged Mazda 3, and was introduced so that Scion could have a more traditional sedan in its lineup, and get more sales. Will they rebadge it as a Toyota, and compete with the existing Corolla ? I don't think they will.

According to Wikipedia it is already sold as Toyota (Yaris) in Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico...

I did post above, a quote from the press release, that states it will be sold as a Toyota. It wouldn't compete with the Corolla, which is larger, but the smaller Yaris, which no longer has a sedan in the US.

Scion iA is a rebadged Mazda 2 sedan, not 3
and yes, that ugly thing is sold as Toyota Yaris sedan here.. http://www.carrefour40640toyota.com/toyota-yaris-2016.htm
hard to believe they went from this to get to that result...
When i was at the Montreal Auto Show, we met a guy who works for Toyota as a mechanic and he told us that so far the dealership where he works had sold only 2 of them while the old Yaris were almost sold as soon as they were unloaded from the truck that carried them

Could be used in a cartoon or CGI as a vampire car, sucking on gas tanks to survive...
Can almost see the fangs coming out from the grille...
