With each new year comes new generations of cars being introduced throughout the industry. The 2010 model year has certainly given us some exciting and inventive cars from revivals chock-full of retro styling, to redesigned and new models. As the car industry is always a year a head of the rest of the not-as-interesting world, msnbc.com put together a slideshow of some great 2011 models we can look forward to in 2010.

Included on the list are five American cars, including the new Ford S-Max, the popular European offering of Ford’s that addresses the many concerns of the more utility-conscious Europeans, and appeals to the gradually increasing American counterparts of those Europeans.

The Chevy Volt and Cruz are also on the list, as well as the Ford Fiesta, Buick Regal, Hyundai Sonata, Toyota Sienna, Nissan Leaf, Mazda’s subcompact offering, the Mazda2, and the Honda CR-Z.

Drop a line and let us know what cars you are looking forward to next year.
