From this collection, as usual, you will learn the five main automotive news. Everything is just the most interesting: Porsche presented a new generation of Panamera, Hyundai updated the Tucson crossover, the Genesis GV70 was prepared for off-road use, Pagani showed the 850-horsepower Imola Roadster, and Toyota updated the Yaris Cross.
Porsche introduced the new generation Panamera
Porsche has completely declassified the new generation Panamera. In 2023, the premium Porsche Panamera liftback experienced a generational change – the German automaker held an official presentation of the third generation model. Officially, Porsche calls the car a new generation, although in fact the “new” Panamera is a variant of a deep modernization of the car produced since 2016. However, many changes were made to the model – both at the design level and on the technical side.

Hyundai Tucson now has a new interior: what has changed
Hyundai has updated the once popular Tucson crossover in Russia. Externally, the model has remained virtually unchanged, but an important update has appeared in the cabin – instead of two separate screens, the restyled Tucson has a single curved cluster that combines two 12.3-inch displays. The steering wheel has also changed – it is now three-spoke and looks more neat and minimalistic. In addition, the location of the gear shift lever has changed – it was moved to the steering column, while the central tunnel was allocated for cup holders and wireless charging.

Genesis GV70 prepared for off-road
The Genesis GV70 crossover has been turned into an expedition SUV. The joint project of the Korean brand and the delta4x4 studio is called GV70 Project Overland. The original car’s ground clearance was increased, the track was widened and off-road attributes were added. Moreover, all this is very similar to the GV70 Camping Gear Black Edition, declassified last month. An expeditionary roof rack with PIAA LED chandeliers appeared on the roof of the GV70. And in the bumper there are additional spotlights. There is nothing to say about the delta4x4 powerplant – apparently, it has remained unchanged.
Genesis
Pagani showed 850-horsepower Imola Roadster
Pagani Imola now has an open version. The Italian brand introduced another version of the Huayra hypercar, named Imola Roadster. The car was created by the Grand Complications division and is essentially an improved Huayra BC Roadster. The engine of the new product is familiar from other Paganis – it is a V12 6.0 biturbo engine developed by Mercedes-AMG. On the Imola Roadster, its output is increased to 850 horsepower and 1100 Nm of torque. It is stated that at 280 kilometers per hour the Imola Roadster creates a clamp equivalent to 600 kilograms. Overloads during cornering and braking reach 2.2 g.

Toyota Yaris Cross has been updated and become more powerful
The Toyota Yaris Cross crossover has become more powerful and technologically advanced. The model for Europe received a new powertrain and multimedia, as well as improved sound insulation and a new top version of the Premiere Edition. This Yaris Cross is distinguished by rich equipment, exclusive body paint and specially designed wheels. The European Yaris Cross, following the regular Yaris, has acquired a new hybrid power plant, the Hybrid 130. The layout and technical system is solved as before, that is, it has a base in the form of a 1.5 turbocharged engine, an electric motor and a CVT. But the entire transmission part is new.
