The Toronto Auto Show opens its doors to the public from February 17th to the 26th at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. If you’re currently shopping for a new car or truck, an auto show is an excellent place to start your research. This year at the CIAS, there are many, many new models to look at and sit down in, and comparing a bunch of vehicles back to back is a piece of cake.
The compact crossover segment is growing by the minute. In addition to the redesigned 2013 Ford Escape, the 2013 Mazda CX-5, the 2013 Acura RDX and the 2013 Buick Encore are on display for your viewing pleasure. There also some bigger, more powerful trucks, such as the brutal 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML 63 AMG and the seven-passenger 2013 Infiniti JX.
Small luxury sedans will face some new competition with the arrival of the 2013 Cadillac ATS and the production version of the 2013 Acura ILX, replacing the CSX. Both will offer three powertrain choices.

The 2013 Dodge Dart, scheduled to go on sale this summer, will offer three engines and three transmissions as well as a choice of 150 Mopar accessories to personalize your car. The 2013 Ford Fusion looks like an Aston Martin, while the built-in-Oshawa 2013 Cadillac XTS will seek to replace the DTS and STS.
