Auto » 38 December 10 • 2015 LA Auto Show Reveals LA Auto Show Reveals New and custom vehicles make their debut. T he Fiat brand displayed the custom-painted Fiat 500e Star Wars: The Force Awakens Stormtrooper at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show last month. The vehicles are part of the FCA US LLC support of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, opening Dec. 18. Lucasfilm is collaborating with FCA US, in addition to six other global brands, for the launch of an expansive, historic promotional campaign in support of the film. The exterior livery of the Fiat 500e Stormtrooper is inspired by the armor of the First Order Legion, with a two-tone black and white custom painting of the car body. The windshield and the side windows are wrapped to bring out the immediately recognizable visor and helmet of the First Order Stormtrooper. Inside, everything is in black and white, too, with total custom front and rear seats upholstered in leather and Alcantara. The dash- board is painted in white and it is enriched by the Star Wars logo on it. All the details are painted in white/black lacquer, and a First Order insignia can be found on the two-tone leather-wrapped steering wheel. Much like the Stormtrooper armor itself, the Fiat 500e brings together modern technology and functionality, but with an added classic Italian design, making it the perfect vehicle to take on the galaxy in style. The Fiat 500e Stormtrooper was created by Garage Italia Customs. * Denali is the ultimate expression of GMC's professional grade style, luxury and capability — and it is coming to the Canyon midsize truck. The 2017 Canyon Denali made its public debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show. It goes on sale in late 2016. "Canyon is the segment's first and only premium midsize truck, offering unparal- leled capability and efficiency matched with maneuverability and refinement," said Duncan Aldred, vice president of GMC Sales and Marketing. "The all-new Canyon Denali builds on that award-winning combination with the distinctive styling, luxu- rious interior and elevated content that has defined the Denali nameplate since its introduc- tion nearly 17 years ago." Like all Denali models, the new Canyon Denali is distinguished with a unique chrome grille and unique wheels — 20-inch ultra- bright-machined aluminum wheels with painted accents. Exterior cues include chrome fog lamp bezels, five-inch-diameter rectangular chrome assist steps, a polished exhaust tip and a standard spray-in bed liner. The Canyon Denali will be offered in six exte- rior colors. * GMC INTRODUCES 2017 CANYON DENALI continued on page 40 Sanford "Sandy" Greenberg Certified Audi Brand Specialist, Elite 248-997-7438-Direct Sandy.Greenberg@edmotorgroup.com AudiofRochesterHills.com 248-997-7400-main Michigan's Number 1 Audi Retailer, AUDI OF ROCHESTER HILLS Presents "The Season of Audi Sales Event" Contact Sandy for Details on the Outstanding Promotions Currently Offered Now Through December 31st. 2057550
