While McLaren is truly happy with its sales and doesn’t plan on switching to the SUV market, Audi is already thinking of adding more sport utility vehicles to its U.S. lineup. The carmaker revealed that it still has niches and segments which might bring to better sales in US. Crosssovers will be a major part of Audi’s U.S. lineup and Audi is pushing to add their own full-size Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class rival since there is demand in this side of the Atlantic for an SUV that large. As for sedans, every automaker, Audi isn’t seeing the same kind of sales numbers a...
Just in case you were wondering about McLaren switching to the SUV market, now we know for sure that this thing won’t happen anytime soon. The company will continue working on driver’s cars and GTS cars.

In a study surveying drivers in the US, UK, Germany, France, and Italy, transportation data company INRIX finds that attitudes about autonomous vehicles (AVs) differ quite a bit depending on what side of the Atlantic one lives on, as well as by age.

The U.S. auto boom that fueled record sales and profits is winding down. General Motors CEO Mary Barra claims that the auto industry is changing more today than it has in the past 50 years. It's true that the U.S. auto sector had a close call during the 2008 financial crisis, when both GM and Chrysler needed federal bailouts to survive bankruptcy. But that was a pretty straightforward crisis, caused by excess labor costs and a plunge in auto sales due to a wrecked economy. The challenge today is posed by electric and self-driving cars, and it is far more fundamental. Automakers ...
May be we have been living in the auto industry bubble, but it's time to look at things from a fresh perspective amid some worrying rounds of new data. The cars are getting way more expensive in light of the increased horsepower and amenities. Unsurprisingly, this rising level of auto luxury has come alongside a surge in the stock market that has buyers willingly plunking down their credit card or some cold hard cash to get a new toy. The same thing could be applied to non-luxury cars, say mid-size sedans from Ford, Toyota and General Motors. They are receiving hosts of new fea...
