The year 2025 will be the year of all dangers for the automotive industry. Global situations, maintaining some markets against competition, difficulty in establishing factories on battery or Canada the end of provincial and federal subsidies for the purchase of an electric vehicle.
Recall that the electric model costs $ 15,000 to $ 20,000 more than the equivalent gasoline model. Combined subsidies of provincial and federal during their establishment reached an amount of $ 12,000. Non -compliance. However, they attracted about 35 % of buyers and buyers of new vehicles who turned to blue energy. It seems that two levels of government are working to find other incentives, but for sales representation, the end of subsidies will be pleased, especially because certain orders are canceled today and that they risk the fleet of electric vehicles that no longer find buyers. We have heard that the federalum is thinking about returning a grant for 1 April.
Hopefully it’s not April fish! To compensate for the loss of subsidies, some manufacturers want to reduce the price of their electric vehicles. Nissan, GM, Ford and even Volkswagen have pricing plans but are final or temporary? This is to be seen. This means that at a time when we are ready to replace freedom brought by cars to turn to other means of transport that would limit the field of our paths. Manufacturers either did not say their last word and Montreal automatic show remains the opportunity to realize the trend for the coming years, otherwise in the coming months. And of course the opportunity to discover new models.
A small overview of Nissan newspapers has trouble and its alliance with Renault and Mitsubishi bears the expected fruit, to the extent that we decided to turn to partnership with Honda. There are discussions. However, the Japanese brand offered three new features in the show of the show. It is true that Nissan was successful in Canada.
Nissan Murano
When the first Nissan Murano appeared, he created the whole stir and was a success. Well registered on our roads, has a facelift for the fourth generation. He visually moved away from the original Murana. It is more inspired by contemporary design, which today makes many models from each other, not if the initiaments. The new Murano offers two rows of seats, but on the motorization side, the change is important, because 3.5 l V6 has been replaced by a four -cylinder turbocharged 2 L engine, it can be less greedy for the pump.
Nissan kicks
It belongs to the category of subcompact multisgments. In short, a mixture of SUV and sedan, but above the category of small vehicles. For 2025, we dared to completely change it and kicks are no longer similar to who is still on sale. Kicks 2025 is more spacious, its strength has been increased and can finally receive an optional full -fledged gear that was missing in the previous generation. As a result of these significant changes: the purchase price has increased. However, this small tool remains a good compromise, especially in a full track for everyday use in our regions.
Nissan Armada
From the first generation his name said everything: Armada. We are in large, wide, more, more, more. The Nissan Armada 2025, on sale since last December, continues to offer more, such as the bonus of its off-road skills with a PR-4X version, an even stronger drawn capacity without forgetting the standard massage on the seat. Nissan will be able to play on the outside and soft inside. What they feel invincible.
Hyundai Ioniq 9 2026
Hyundai Ioniq 9 will arrive for concessions this spring. It’s a non -identical twin Kia EV9. He also shares the same platform. Ioniq 9 is completing the range of Korean brand vehicles. We appreciated the look of the Ioniq 5 sedan, slightly less appearance Ioniq 6, whose ovarian design refers to large insects on the bike. As with all its electric models, Hyundai has chosen pixalized optical blocks, which is the signature of the most beautiful effect. Ioniq 9 first introduces itself as an important SUV according to its size and thanks to the flat floor it can choose a third row of easy access. And special attention was paid inside, especially with the presence of a curved screen driver to improve availability and readability. There are three engines: the first with one electric motor with 215 horsepower with rear drive, the second with full gear and two engines with 303 horsepower, finally the power model is offered with two batteries with 422 horsepower. The manufacturer ensures that, regardless of the selected model, the autonomy of this electric vehicle is around 480 km.
