Spoiled for car and truck choiceWith more than 250 choices avail-able to Canadians, the selection of cars and trucks can be somewhat overwhelming.Today, the Driveway team hopes to steer you in the direction you may want to go in this 2014 New Model Preview edition. It’s not a comprehensive list but a look at some key market seg-ments, from which our featured writers have each made five picks. Of course, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t consider any other vehi-cles. The team members have picked examples that have caught their eye this year to help you start the car conversation at home. Head test driver Zack Spencer scanned the en-

tire market to come up with his tips, paying particular attention to the booming SUV/Crossover segment. Yours truly picks some premium brand offerings while Alexandra spots the sporty cars under $30,000. Bob McHugh focuses on hybrid vehicles and we welcome Ian Harwood, who lives and breathes trucks be they utility vehicles, off roaders or pickups.Okay, before you turn the page here are some purchase

preparation tips. Fix a top-price budget and if financing will be required figure out what you can truly afford in monthly payments. Insurance and maintenance are major costs in

owning a car. Once you have a vehicle in mind, get an insurance quote. Regular maintenance costs are easily figured but some cars can be very expensive if parts have to be brought in from around the world.Once you have a handle on the above, you can narrow your choice. It is important you like the looks of the second most expensive purchase of your life. However, make sure it serves its intended purpose by answering some ques-tions. Typically, how many people do you need to transport and how far? Is there enough stowage space in the cabin and the trunk or luggage compartment? Do you need V8 power or will an economical four-cylinder suffice? Now go and kick some tires at a variety of dealerships and consider multiple brands because they all have much to offer.

18 The Mission Record Thursday, November 7, 2013

So many cars to choose from, so few words available in this tight space!Yes, I know that’s the complaint of every writer but we truly do have a lot of choice today. And the quality of vehicles is so much higher than it ever was so there is much to celebrate. In the run-up to 2014, I will be testing a lot of what’s new and improved.Today, I’ll just offer you five models to consider adding to your shopping list.2014 Mazda3The compact car seg-ment in Canada is the biggest by far, with over 20 percent of all vehicles sold. So, the introduc-tion of the Mazda3 is important because it is currently the fourth best seller in this class. The outgoing car was already one of the best handling cars and now with a lighter and sexier looking body, this new car is both eye catching and solid on the road. The base engine is a 2.0L 4-cylinder with 155hp, thanks to direct injection. The larger 2.5L engine puts out a healthy 184hp. It is the interior buyers will care most about, and the Mazda3 is a nice surprise, due to class leading available options and a high level of finish. Starting at $15,995 and running up to $29,895, there is a Mazda3 for all budgets. 2014 Toyota CorollaContinuing with the compact car theme, the Toyota Corolla is the third

best selling car in Canada but Toyota believes this new model can take the overall sales crown away from the Honda Civic. This new 2014 model is made, and partly designed, right here in Canada with our needs in mind. The Corolla now has a longer wheelbase for amazing interior space, especially in the back seat. The dash is wide and flat for ample room and covered in nice looking and feeling materials,

plus there is an available centre screen to use for the radio and backup camera. Powering the 2014 Corolla is the same 132hp 1.8L engine from the last model, with one exception. The LE Eco model has a modified valve system to improve fuel economy and pump the power to 140hp. The biggest change is the introduction of a continuously variable

transmission for a greater range of gears, improved economy, and a smooth drive. 2014 Volkswagen GolfThis new Golf will be made in Mexico along side the Beetle and Jetta sedan and will go on sale in the spring of 2014. It is wider and longer than the last Golf but also significantly lighter and safer. The base engine will be a new turbocharged 1.8L engine with 170hp but don’t worry the TDI diesel is carried over. The sportier GTI trim is fantastic, with an estimated 225hp,

in the Canadian Model, thanks to a new 2.0L turbo engine. The interior materials used inside are almost Audi quality. No price yet but building these new cars inside the NAFTA zone will save money and that will be reflected in the price.2014 Jeep CherokeeThe Cherokee is back and it looks nothing like the boxy truck of old. In fact, this new, small SUV is based on the same Alfa Romeo platform used in the Dodge Dart. It is smooth and quiet and a pleasure to drive. The Cherokee is also the first vehicle in the world to

be equipped with a 9-speed automatic transmission. The base engine is a 2.4L 4-cylinder with 184hp or the optional 3.2L V6 with 271hp, for just $1,300 more, offering good value. Not to worry Jeep fans, this new Cherokee is avail-able with three AWD systems.2014 Nissan RogueYou might notice a trend with my 2014 model choices are all compact cars or compact SUVs. This is the direction Ca-nadians are heading when it comes to buying a new vehicle. With this in mind Nissan has an all-new Rogue compact SUV with enough room inside for three

rows of seats and room for 7-passen-gers. This is practical for people who require extra capacity but don’t want to buy a bigger or more expensive mid-sized or larger SUV. Under the hood is a 2.5L 4-cylinder used in other Nissan products and is matched to a new continually variable transmission featuring more available ratios and reduced friction. The interior is very well executed, with a dash that looks similar to the bigger Pathfinder. Goes on sale just before Christmas.

2014 Honda CRV

A vehicle doesn’t have to be exorbitantly expensive, have mega horsepower or a fancy Italian badge on it to be fun to drive. In fact, a lot of people seem to agree with that statement too since there are a few pocket rockets available on the market that might not compete for the top power specs, but can certainly get the party started.Ford Fiesta ST- $24,499If its exterior colour, say the one clad in Green Envy, doesn’t catch your eye, perhaps its exhaust note will. When you rev 1.6L, 4-cylin-der, turbocharged, EcoBoost engine of the Fiesta ST, you’ll probably turn your head. Yes, it’s a subcompact but it doesn’t feel like it when you’re working through the gears of the 6-speed manual transmission. Ford’s newest mini powerhouse comes with a whopping 197 horsepower and 202 lb-ft of torque. It’s the same engine paired with the Focus ST, but in a smaller packaged. Its sport infused suspension, gearbox, phe-

nomenal handling and host of creature comforts sound good to you, it’s even better to drive. Mazda3 Sport- starts at $15,995 For the 2014 model year, Maz-da completely overhauls their number-one selling sedan and hatch-back: the 3. Expect more mature styl-ing. Among its tweaked features, you’ll find new interior and exterior styling along with the implementa-tion of their high compression ratio engines, better known as SKYACTIV. Two engines and transmissions are offered. There’s the 2.0L, 4-cylinder SK-YACTIV engine with a 6-speed manual transmission or an available 6-speed automatic transmission- available on either the base GX or mid-

grade GS models. It produces 155 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque. Then there’s a 2.5L, 4-cylinder SKYACTIV engine for the GT trim, which only comes with a 6-speed automatic. It generates 184 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of

torque. Either is a treat to drive with ex-cellent urban or extra urban characteris-tics.2014 Fiat 500L- starts at $19,995For Fiat fans, if the 500 was too small, here’s your answer: the

500L. The longer wheelbase cutie is more practical than the pint-sized version and has more room. And two more doors!Powering it is a 1.4L, 4-cylin-der, MultiAir turbo engine that pumps out 160 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque.Since it’s a bigger car, it feels

bigger to drive. But visibil-ity isn’t compromised and there are a couple of great gearboxes to choose from: a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed Euro Twin Clutch automatic transmission.Toyota Corolla- starts at $15,995New styling on the inside and out makes it more desirable to the eyes. It’s still not as excit-ing as most of its competitors but the 1.8L, 4-cyinder does a bang up job of delivering 132 horsepower and 128 lb-ft of torque. Kia Soul- starts at $16,995 Kia’s box-mobile continues to deliver strong sales despite angularly-shaped vehicles becoming a trend of the past. Now, the all-new soul is built on a bigger platform, increasing legroom up front and in the rear. It’s also quiet-er on the road when revving its 1.6L, 4-cylinder engine. There’s also a 2.0L 4-cylinder available with 164 horsepow-er and 151 lb-ft of torque.alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

ABBOTSFORD NISSAN30180 Automall Drive, Abbotsford, BC

Tel: (604) 857-7755 www.abbotsford.nissan.ca

drivewayBC is truck country and there is a multitude of prod-ucts to pick from whether you are weekend odd-job-ber or need something to haul your tools to the job site.Oh, yes, and many folks just like trucks! – As somebody who has spent his life

around trucks you won’t get any argument from me on that count.In the coming months, in my role as truck writer for Driveway, I will be testing most of what is available in your local dealerships and telling you about the pros and cons of each. I’ll also

be telling you about the latest accessories and we’ll maybe do a little off-road-ing together.Today, I’ve just picked five trucks to give you some place to start your search for the truck that will suit you best in 2014.The 2014 GMC/Chevy Sil-

verado/Sierra ½ ton pickup has gone through some monumental changes this year. What an improvement over last year with a very comfortable and refined in-terior on all trim levels, and three engine choices, the Eco Tec 4.3L V6, 5.3l v8, and the 6.2l V8. With so many

changes and enhancements to this vehicle you will really have to wait for my full review on this vehicle in the coming weeks to get the complete picture. 2014 Ford F150 Ecoboost. With more than 100,000 Eco Boost engines produced monthly, you can bet a

majority of these engines are finding their way into the 2014 F150 pickup. This truck holds the record in Canada for highest pickup sales, and at 12.9/9.0 L/100 km (city/highway) it keeps the money in your wallet a little longer. 2014 RAM 1500 EcoDiesel. This is a much-anticipated truck from RAM and is one I am anxious to see. With a 3.0 L V6 Diesel engine with a torqueflite eight speed transmission. Not only will it give you 420 pound feet of torque and plenty of towing capabilities, it will also reduce co2 emissions and run on B20 Biodiesel. 2014 Toyota Tundra. New body style this year, impressive hood and fender design. Toyota has also included a Western themed truck called 1794 Edition. This truck’s interior is cov-ered with Saddle tan brown leather seats and rich maple wood grain panels throughout. The Tundra is powered by a 4.6 Litre or a 5.7 Litre engine. Can it compete with the big boys? – This is the year to see.2014 RAM ProMaster. After a long run with the Dodge full-size RAM van there was a void in the marketplace for a spacious cargo van, a void that was quickly gobbled up by Mercedes Sprinter, and the Nissan NV. Based on the Fiat Ducato, this van has some RAM branding of its own and is available in a wide range of wheelbase options and two roof heights. Engine choices will be the Penastar 3.6 Litre V6 or the turbocharged 3.0 litre EcoDiesel four cylinder engine. There is plenty of excitement around this vehicle.If you want to talk trucks or chat about what might make your truck ‘purty’, please drop me a line. I would also like to see pictures of what you have done to your truck in the way of customization.

There’s a new breed of hybrids hitting the streets that are clos-er in performance and price to their gasoline counter-parts. Hybrids not only save on gasoline, they also save on maintenance, espe-cially brake system repairs, and they typically come with longer drivetrain

warranties. These new hybrid examples are all en-tries for 2014 Canadian Car of the Year. The braking and acceleration stats are from the recent Testfest evaluation event. Jetta Hybrid is not just the fi rst Volkswagen hybrid; it’s the fi rst hybrid with a turbocharged gas engine and a rapid-shift 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox (DSG), instead of the usual CVT automatic. A compact lithium-ion battery pack also takes up less trunk space and even allows a pass-through feature (with fold-down rear seats)

for longer items.Preserving Jetta’s sport-sedan qualities, the hybrid’s electric motor boosts powertrain performance and optimizes fuel economy. A clever “power meter” on the instrument panel translates what’s happening under-hood into an easy to understand driving efficiency gauge.Price: $28,490 to $35,300

Fuel economy (combined city/highway): 4.4 L/100kmAcceleration (0 to 100 km/hour): 9.0 seconds.Braking (100 to 0 km/hour): 47.1 meters Honda Accord Hybrid is the fi rst full-hybrid from Honda. Its unique two-motor powertrain operates in three distinct driving modes in which the Atkinson cycle engine is completely de-coupled (EV) used as an electrical generator (Hybrid) or drives the wheels (Engine). The result is incredibly good fuel economy, considering this is a fully equipped (including leather and nav), big sedan. Price: $35,690Fuel economy (combined city/highway): 3.8 L/100kmAcceleration (0 to 100 km/hour): 8.0 seconds.Braking (100 to 0 km/hour): 46.3 meters

The new Energi version of the Ford CMAX is a plug-in hybrid, which means it can be plugged into the electrical outlet to recharge its battery. Stored e-power pulled from the grid allows it to be driven further (about 34 km) in a pure electric-vehicle mode. Depending on everyday driving demands, CMAX Energi could actually function as an electric vehicle for many urban owners. Price: $36,999Fuel economy (combined city/highway): 3.1 L/100kmAcceleration (0 to 100 km/hour): 8.9 seconds.Braking (100 to 0 km/hour): 43.0 meters The hybrid version of the new Infiniti Q50 offers 354 net horsepower making it a high-performance sport sedan. Impressive propulsion comes from the combined efforts of a 3.5-litre 24-valve DOHC aluminum-alloy V6 gas engine and a 50 kW electric motor that’s rated at 67 horsepower, plus an inno-vative one-motor/two-clutch motor control system.The Q50 Hybrid is available in both rear-wheel drive and what Infi niti calls Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. Precise handling is provided by its 4-wheel inde-pendent multi-link suspension and an innovative Direct Adaptive Steering with fi ve handling modes.

Price: $47,000 to $49,500Fuel economy (combined city/highway): 7.0 L/100kmAcceleration (0 to 100 km/hour): 5.8 seconds.Braking (100 to 0 km/hour): 42.8 meters The Porsche Panamera S e-Hybrid is a four-door, four seat supercar with a lavishly luxurious interior. The “e” denotes that it’s a plug-in hybrid and it has more than double the electrical power (95 horsepower) of its hybrid predecessor, plus a new li-ion battery pack. Its electric-only driving range is 18 to 36 km and it has a top speed of 135 km/hour in e-drive.Stomp on the gas pedal and a 416-horsepower, 3.0-litre V6 gas engine bursts into action and the G-forces can pin you to the seatback. Top speed is now 270 km/hour, but mercifully the brakes (regenerative) are even more powerful at bringing the Panamera S e-Hybrid quickly to a halt. Price: $113,300Fuel economy (combined city/highway): 6.4 L/100kmAcceleration (0 to 100 km/hour): 5.4 seconds.Braking (100 to 0 km/hour): 37.7 meters

MO SISTASThe Murray family of dealerships realize MO SISTAS also have an important role in helping men to break down barriers and talk about their health. Women are traditionally more comfortable when it comes to talking about these matters, so they can be great facilitators in supporting the MO BROS in their life.

Never underestimate how far a kind word of encouragement or a wink and nod from a MO SISTA can go in helping a MO BRO as he navigates the month of Movember. To donate directly to the Movember Murray team go to http://ca.movember.com/team/1352589.

Mitsubishi will unveil three world premiere concept cars later this month at the 43rd Tokyo Motor Show.The AR concept (left) is a next-generation compact MPV, which combines SUV maneuverability with MPV roominess. It uses a lightweight mild hybrid system, which comprises a downsized 1.1-litre di-rect-injection turbocharged MIVEC engine.The GC-PHEV (centre) is a full-size SUV with full-time 4WD. It is based on a front engine; rear-wheel drive layout plug-in hybrid EV (PHEV) system comprising a 3.0-litre V6 supercharged MIVEC engine mated to an eight-speed automat-ic transmission, with a high-output motor and a high-capacity battery to deliver all-terrain perfor-mance.The compact XR-PHEV (right) uses a front engine, front-wheel drive layout PHEV system configured with a downsized 1.1-litre direct-injection turbo-charged MIVEC engine, a lightweight, compact and high-efficiency motor with a high-capacity battery.All three concepts feature "e-Assist" active safety technologies and the advanced "connected car" technology. These functions include a danger detection system, which activates the corresponding safety functions.

Thanks to their special compound, winter tires offer the elasticity required to ensure maximum grip throughout the cold season, regardless of the road conditions. Summer tires can become hard when the temperatures fall below 7 degrees Celsius, thereby losing the fl exibility needed to build up suffi cient grip for braking, starting off, and cornering.

Premium brands are in demand no matter what the state of the economy.This trend is good for all levels of the market as non-premium car mak-ers try to offer a better bang for your buck when purchasing the workaday wheels. Loaded top-of-the-line flagship models frequently nip at the heels of their premium brand siblings. But does Merc have a deal for you! – The sporty 2014 Mercedes CLA, which stands for Coupe-Light A Class, starts at un-der $34,000. It sits on the less than sport B250 hatchback platform but this sloping roof coupe-style four-door sedan is all fun.Under the hood is a 2.0-li-tre turbocharged four-cyl-inder engine, matched to a 7G seven-speed dual clutch transmission gen-erating 208 horsepower for the front-wheel drive machine.It is also fast as I discov-ered at the launch in the South of France — zero to 100 km/h in 6.7 seconds and a top speed of 240 km/h. Estimated fuel consumption is around 6.2L/100kms. It also performed well on the very twisty mountain roads that roll away from the sun-blessed Mediterranean coast.Audi is a powerhouse across its model-range but you can expect to pay premium prices for these powerful and beautifully crafted machines that just eat up the miles, sorry kilometres, on roads worldwide. Travelling the motorways of the UK, you could be forgiven for thinking you are in Germany: every other cars seems to be either a BMW 3-Series/5-Series or Audi 3, 4 or 6!The 2014 Audi S4 Sedan would tempt me if I had 53-grand-plus to in my jeans. Load it up and you will soon hit 60 and more. A few days in an S4 recently on a deserted high-speed highway south of the border spoiled me. The supercharged 3-litre TFSI V6 pumps out 333 horses and, with the

aid of six-speed manual dual-clutch transmission, pushes the all-wheel drive S4 to 100 km/h in just 5.1 seconds.It’s not just about perfor-mance: the leather interior is beautifully crafted and comfy to boot, which is not always the case with some of today’s leather uphol-stered cars.Infiniti is an unabashed fan of Audi, in fact its brass frequently talk publicly about wanting to emulate

the high standard set across its range by the German manufac-turer. Now it’s looking to pass Lexus and tailgate the big three German premium brands.The Infiniti Q50 is the

first evidence that this is not some idle threat. It has the fingerprints of four-time F1 champ Sebastian Vettel on it though, I am told, not nearly as many dabs as the highly-antici-pated Q30 due later next year.On looks alone, it demands attention. It sports the popular coupe-styling but the sloping rear doesn’t impinge dramatically on head room for back seat passengers.The base Q50 has a 3.7-li-tre V-6 engine putting 328 horsepower at the car’s disposal. The 6.7 litres/100 km highway fuel economy is an eyebrow raiser. Start-ing sticker price is $37,500, which demands those in the market for a premium brand should put the car on their tire-kicking list. My next choice might surprise, but the BMWi3 electric car knocked me out when I attended its launch the other week in Amsterdam (featured in the first Driveway). It has a range of 160 kilometres, sells for $45,000 and if you cough up another $4,000 for the gas-powered range extending generator the far horizon is the limit!One brief mention because a full test follows soon. The 2014 Acura MDX marks the strengthening of this Honda premium brand product in the mid-sized SUV segment. The three-row seven-seater has come under challenge in recent

years. The longer all-new body with its lower stance distinguishes it consider-ably from the outgoing model.With a starting price just below $50,000, it features a solid 3.5-litre, 290 hp V6 that consumes just 7.7 litres of gas on the highway.

Green Car Journal has identified its five final-ists for the magazine’s high-profile 2014 Green Car of the Year program. The five 2014 models include the Audi A6 TDI, BMW 328d, Honda Accord, Mazda3, and Toyota Corolla. These five finalists

are also honoured as Green Car Journal’s “Top 5 Green Cars for 2014” and earn the magazine’s “Green Car Product of Excellence” honors.An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the program each year, a reflection of the auto industry’s ex-panding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honouring the most important “green” vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.“The diversity of this field of finalists illustrates not only that ‘green’ has gone mainstream, but also that there is no single approach to achieving ever higher levels of fuel efficiency and environ-mental performance,” says Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car

Journal and CarsOfChange.com. “There’s something for everyone in this year’s field of finalists, including clean diesel, high efficiency gasoline, and hybrid/plug-in hybrid power featured in mainstream, sporty, and executive models.” Finalists are selected for their achievements in rais-ing the bar in environmen-tal performance. Availabil-ity to the mass market is a factor to ensure honored models have the potential to make a real difference in environmental impact, and finalists must be available for sale by January 1st of the award year.Green Car of the Year jurors include auto enthusi-ast and Tonight Show host Jay Leno, plus leaders of the nation’s major environ-mental organizations. The Driveway team will be at the LA Show to bring thewinners of this program and all the highlights of the glitzy auto extravagan-za in tinseltown.
