Luxury Sedan - Jaguar XKR-S

Making its debut at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, the Jaguar XKR-S is the most extreme expression yet of Jaguar's passion for building beautiful, fast cars. For the first time with a series production car, Jaguar gains entry to the exclusive '300kph club' thanks to the effortless performance of the supercharged 5.0-litre AJ-V8 engine. A revised fuelling map means the direct-injection powerplant now produces 550PS and 680Nm of torque. Extensive recalibration has ensured that power delivery and performance are seamless, contributing to a 0-60mph time of 4.2 seconds. The Performance active exhaust encourages and rewards the enthusiastic driver with dramatic, motorsport-inspired aural feedback.

The Jaguar XKR-S is not merely the quickest Jaguar ever but also the most agile, responsive and driver-focused. The pinnacle of the XK range builds on feedback gathered from the supercharged XKR and has been developed to extend the performance parameters of the car. This new harder-edged character allows the enthusiastic driver to explore the outer limits of the car's dynamics without losing the refinement and usability for which Jaguar is famous. The structural integrity of the lightweight aluminium platform allowed the suspension to be reworked with bespoke components for increased stiffness without a commensurate loss in either refinement or Jaguar's legendary ride comfort. A reworked aluminium front suspension knuckle and revised rear geometry are allied to stiffer springs and dampers, lightweight forged alloy wheels and recalibrated steering effort to minimise any response delays and produce a more connected and agile driving experience.

Luxury Sedan - Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG

Mercedes’ Los Angeles auto show stand is seldom a dull place, and indeed the only dull thing on the stand this year was the special matte-charcoal paint covering the brand’s featured debutant, the CLS63 AMG. Called Manganit Gray Magno, the spooky hue hints at the sinister character of the CLS63, which was further confirmed by the crackling exhaust note heard as it rumbled onto the stage.

The AMG exterior treatment looks good on the new-for-2012, E-class–based CLS and its “four-door coupe” proportions. The aluminum hood and front fenders have been reshaped, and combine with a deeper front air dam housing twin LED light bars to give the car a wider-looking stance and a more bad-ass look in general. In back, a diffuser insert and the thinnest of rear lip spoilers should help stability while exploring the upper end of the CLS63’s speed range, which is electronically limited to 155 mph on standard versions and 186 mph on those with the optional Performance package. The gorgeous, purposeful-looking five-spoke wheels measure 19 inches in diameter and are wrapped with performance rubber measuring 255 mm wide up front and 285 mm wide in the rear.

Inside, the CLS63 features upgraded sport seats, and burl walnut trim is standard—although we’d probably opt for the carbon-fiber or piano-black inlays, both of which seem a bit more in line with this beast’s character. A three-spoke steering wheel, aluminum shift paddles, and a stubby shift lever round out the interior changes.

The body and interior aren’t the only elements that get significant upgrades, of course: the chassis has been retuned as well. The CLS63 AMG features steel coils in front and air springs in back, with automatic ride-height control and electronically adjustable, three-stage damping. The electrohydraulic steering has been tweaked by AMG, and the stability-control system has three settings to enable occasional tail-waggin’ fun within a broader safety envelope. When you get on the brakes, get ready to slow down quickly: all four brake discs measure 14.2-inches in diameter. The show car had gold-painted brake calipers emblazoned with the word “ceramic," and carbon-ceramic brakes will be a special-order option. A limited-slip differential is available, too, as a standalone add-on.

Luxury Sedan - Audi A7, launched at the 2010 Paris Motor Show

The Audi A7 Sportback (internally designated Typ 4G) is executive car produced by Audi launched at the 2010 Paris Motor Show in a five-door hatchback body style. The A7 is based on the Volkswagen Group MLB platform, which is shared with the 2011 fourth-generation Audi A6 (C7).

The A7 marked Audi's return to the executive hatchback market since the 1970 three-door Audi 100 Coupe of 1970 and the 1977 five-door 100 Avant. It was announced at the Pinakothek der Moderne art museum in Munich on 27 July 2010 and débuted at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. The car was launched in the US at the New York Auto Show in April 2011 as a 2012 model.

The A7 was preceded by a concept car, the Audi Sportback concept shown at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show. The concept car first spawned the Audi A5 Sportback which was released September 2009 as a 2010 model.

Reviewers have cited the Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class as a competitor to the Audi A7 in the four door executive coupé market. The A7 has also been compared to the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo since both are mid-luxury hatchbacks, though the 5 Series GT is based on the full-size BMW 7 Series while the A7 is unrelated to the flagship Audi A8.

The A7 features all the driver assistance systems from the 2011 Audi A8, but adds a head-up display and Active Lane Assist.
