If we said that the Citroën Cactus M concept was a kind of successor to the Citroën Mehari from 1968, the Citroën E-Mehari is a purebred modern version of the legendary model, which is more than just an updated version of its predecessor. This one probably has the most varied "clientele", since on the one hand it was a leisure vehicle, and on the other a "physicist" driven by farmers and soldiers. The modern derivative is a four-seater pleasure cabriolet with electric drive that exudes freshness and difference.
The McLaren 675LT Spider is the fifth model that McLaren presented in 2015. The British rounded off the year with a convertible, which is not new news, but its characteristics are fresh.

The Volvo S90 is a premium sedan from the Swedish car manufacturer, which steps into the shoes of the S80 model, as it did not do well in a class in which German cars do not give the competition much room to breathe. The S90 is a completely new story, and apart from the blood relationship (premium family), it has little in common with its predecessor in terms of content and appearance. Previously, the Volvo S90 was inspired by its relative from the "second generation", the SUV Volvo XC90, after which it summarized all modern technologies and engine range.
After Porsche revamped the 911 Carrera, the 911 Turbo and 911 Turbo S models also went under the knife, but in addition to the new look, they also show a bit more muscle compared to their predecessors.
