The annual Los Angeles Auto Show — or, as its organizers like to call it now, Automobility LA — remains one of the marquee events on the American automotive calendar. The 2023 show is going on this week, and while the show may not be as big as it used to be, several automakers revealed new cars during the L.A. show or alongside the event.
Here are five new cars that dropped in Los Angeles that we’re particularly looking forward to driving when they hit the streets next year.
The 2025 Subaru Forester

As predicted, Subaru took the wraps off a new generation of the Forester at the L.A. Auto Show. It’s not a huge change — the chassis is a bit stiffer, there’s a larger touchscreen, the design is revised — but it’s still very clearly a Forester. (Considering how successful the model has been for Subaru, we’re not shocked that the changes are mild, not wild.) A bigger change should arrive next year, when the Forester will become available as a hybrid for the first time.
