Detroit auto show media days are winding down as the international journalists escape to warmer climes, like Sweden and Canada, and this means that public days are approaching. We’ve seen just about all that Detroit’s Cobo Center had to offer this year including the world debuts of the all-new Ford Ranger, Chevrolet Silverado and the Ram 1500. We also saw “trucks” like the all-new Mercedes-Benz G-Class that looks a lot like the old G-Class, and may require a minute or two to tell apart.

Were there vehicles smaller than the Ford Ranger in Detroit this year? You bet, and that includes the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta, 2019 Kia Forte, 2019 Honda Insight, which is now a sedan, and the 2019 Toyota Avalon, which was a sedan all along. We also saw the North American debuts of the BMW X2, as well as the 2019 Mini Cooper hardtop and convertible.

Oh, and the 2019 Ford Mustang Bullitt made an appearance, as had been rumored in weeks prior, but it wasn’t chasing a Dodge Charger inside Cobo Center. At least not this time.

Here’s everything we saw at the Detroit Auto Show this year. If you’re in the Motor City, stop by beginning Saturday, January 20 to see it all for yourself. Just watch out for meteors.
