Mercedes-Benz’s SLK convertible is about to undergo a mid-cycle update. One of the changes will be the adoption of the SLC name. The official reveal is coming soon but right now you can see a completely undisguised version in our latest spy shots.

Another upcoming car is Audi’s new Q2. Originally billed as the Q1, Audi has since changed plans and will call the vehicle a Q2. It will be a compact crossover with coupe-like styling.

Holden tuner HSV is expected to revive its GTS-R badge next year for a new range-topping version of its fleet of high-performance Commodores. Sadly, this may end up being HSV’s final V-8 model as the next-generation Commodore will offer four- and six-cylinder powerplants exclusively.

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