The 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show is just getting underway but already many of the big stars have been revealed. One of these is the 2017 Fiat 124 Spider. Though based on the MX-5 Miata platform, the Fiat is actually slightly larger and comes with a nicer interior as well as a more powerful engine.

One of the big surprises in L.A. is Lincoln’s updated MKZ. The sedan has received an impressive makeover and now offers a Lincoln-exclusive twin-turbocharged V-6 good for 400 horsepower.

Another new car in L.A. is Infiniti’s QX30. The compact crossover, together with its Q30 hatch sibling, will be sailing into showrooms in the second quarter of next year, as a 2017 model.

You'll find all of these stories and more in today's car news, right here at Motor Authority.
