BHP Billiton is hot for electric vehicles. The Australian resources giant, which mines metals and coal used for both steelmaking and fueling power plants, is increasingly optimistic that there will be a surge in demand for some of its products as consumers opt for electric vehicles and other renewable energy technologies. Fiona Wild, BHP’s vice president, says that as we see more renewables and EVs, we also will see an impact on copper demand. One million EVs were sold between 2010 and 2015, largely driven by regulatory mandates in important auto markets including the US, Chi...
Despite the increased consumer discounts on so many popular models, U.S. auto sales fell approximately 6%. The seasonally adjusted annualized rate including an estimate of sales by No. 2 U.S. automaker Ford Motor Co showed sales at 17.9 million. General Motors Co October sales fell a less-than-forecast 1.7%. Sales of its smaller pickups and big SUVs surged while sedan sales fell. U.S. vice president of Nissan brand sales for Nissan Motor Co said favorable economic factors point to strong sales in the remainder of 2016. This year is likely to end slightly below last year's record...
General Motors, as well as other automakers, report October U.S. sales, amid concerns about waning demand, a potentially maxed-out auto-loan market and incentives' impacts on profits.

This October as predicted is another month to set low U.S. car sales. The car sales numbers will fall below the same month a year ago despite a relatively high level of incentives car sales are especially on the decline, as opposed to trucks, a category that includes pickups, SUVs, crossover SUVs and minivans. Based on online shopping, we are expecting total U.S. auto sales, including cars and trucks, to fall about 6% in October. The fact that October 2016 had fewer official “selling days” than October 2015, and sales were especially strong a year ago contributed to a po...
Toyota has lots of headaches this time with the potential deadly airbags. After it has recalled approximately six million more vehicles worldwide over defective Takata air bag inflators, bringing the total number of vehicles recalled to more than 23 million, it had to face another problem. A California woman died last month because of the faulty inflators- and it's one of the eleven victims in the U.S.. Used car dealers can sell vehicles with open safety recalls legally, even though many consumers may be unaware of the cars’ dangers. But now one dealership owner is taking ...
