Yahoo Autos 2022 L.A. Auto Show Editors' Picks
Unlike this year's Detroit Auto Show, the L.A. Show is in its second year back since the start of the pandemic. While not necessarily much bigger or better-attended this year, the show did feature more major debuts. So we've once again rounded up our favorite car reveals of the event.
An interesting thing to note is that almost every one of our picks is highly electrified, either as a hybrid or full-electric car. They also span a wide range of accessibility from entry-level to exotic. Check them out below, along with our full coverage of the show, and let us know what your favorites were in the comment section.
5. Fiat 500e
The original Fiat 500 that was introduced in 1950s postwar Italy was designed to make automobile ownership possible for people who otherwise might not have been able to afford it. I see this latest Fiat 500e as something spiritually similar, so long as Fiat doesn't mess it all up by pricing it too high. In Europe, it's priced well below the Mini E and Nissan Leaf, and with more electric range. Follow that formula in the States, and I think it's poised for success as potentially the least expensive new EV in America, complete with fun and funky Euro flair. –Senior Editor, Consumer, Jeremy Korzeniewski
4. 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6
The Ioniq 6 is an absolute stunner in person. It has the presence of a premium sedan, and Hyundai clearly went the extra mile to make that happen. The interior doesn't quite live up to the premium vibe. It was clearly designed for a Hyundai rather than a Genesis. But that's OK; nobody expects a Cadillac interior in a Chevy, either, and the Ioniq 6's looks more than make up for its humble cabin. Even sitting next to the absolute grand slam that is the N Vision 74, this thing turns heads. Long live the sedan. –Associate Editor Byron Hurd
