The Detroit motor show is just around the corner as the first motor show of 2018, taking place during 13-28 January. It's the first glimpse we'll get at some of the year's most hotly anticipated cars.
Take a look below at what new metal we'll see in Detroit in the new year.
Detroit motor show 2018: the cars
Acura RDX prototype
Honda's US brand will show an SUV prototype that represents the brand's next-generation RDX. It takes inspiration from the striking Precision Concept and its futuristic cabin.
BMW X2
BMW's new small SUV gets its first official outing at the Detroit motor show, despite being revealed ahead of the Los Angeles motor show. The SUV, targeted at young people, is penned to go on sale in the UK in spring.
GAC saloon and EV
Chinese brand GAC is determined to get a foothold on the European and American markets, and at its next motor show appearance in Detroit, will show three cars in Detroit - a luxury MPV chock-full of the brand's latest technologies, a saloon and an electric concept, details of which haven't yet been revealed.
Honda Insight
The Insight is back - well, for the US market anyway. It's also far more conventional than the distinctly Prius-flavoured predeceessor, being a traditional saloon shape. Honda promises that it won't be saddled with the compromises traditionally associated with hybrids, either.
Hyundai Veloster
Hyundai's sporty coupé will be shown in its second generation, although we won't be getting it in the UK. It'll also be the second model to get an N variant after the i30N.
Infiniti Q Inspiration concept
Infiniti will continue its efforts to bring an electric vehicle to market with an electric concept precursor to the production car tipped for reveal at Detroit. It'll be an all-new model rather than a variant of an existing car.
Jeep Cherokee
Jeep will bring its facelifted Cherokee to the Detroit motor show, where the car will be shown in public for the first time. It's another with a far more conventional look, ditching the split headlights from the current-generation car for simple, single units.
Lexus LF-1 Limitless concept
Lexus has shown a glimpse of its Detroit-bound concept and described it as a "luxury flagship". The image gives little away, except a light-bar tail-light cluster, a split spoiler and coupé-like roofline. It could preview an SUV-coupé akin to the BMW X6.
Mercedes-AMG 53 range
AMG's first hybrids will be the 53 range, made up initially of the CLS 53 and the E53 Coupé and Cabriolet models. Each gets 429bhp from a 3.0-litre straight-six engine coupled to a 50kW electric motor.
Mercedes-Benz G-Class
Mercedes is bringing its venerable off-roader in its newest form to Detroit as the first outing since its renewal. We have a pretty good idea of what it'll look like already, because it's not set to change much from the old one.
Volkswagen Jetta
The Jetta probably won't come to these shores - Volkswagen just trimmed it from its UK line-up - but in the US it's a strong seller, so the brand will reveal the new one at Detroit.
