The week surrounding Monterey Car Week, The Quail, and the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance is undoubtedly one of the most exhilarating periods of the year for car enthusiasts. Beyond the breathtaking collections of classic cars, sports machines, and rare exotics on display, it also serves as a global stage for automakers and coachbuilders to introduce their latest creations.
We’ve put together a list of 25 cars that made their very first public appearance during this grand celebration of automotive excellence. Among the concept vehicles with a clear future on the horizon, highlights included the Acura RSX, the Infiniti QX65 Monograph, and the Karma Amaris GT. Equally eye-catching, Cadillac’s fantastical Elevated Velocity concept turned plenty of heads.
Specialty builders also made a strong impression with exceptional, limited-production creations. Stealing the spotlight were unquestionably the two Gordon Murray 2027 models. And given that Monterey unfolds in one of the wealthiest regions of the world, Bugatti seized the occasion to unveil the very first creation from its Solitaire personalization program, the Brouillard. In the same spirit, Lamborghini introduced the Fenomeno, the first variant built on the Revuelto platform.
