For people who live in such a big state as Texas, driving is more like a way of life. The average Texas motorist logs more than 16,000 miles behind the wheel each year, far more than the average American. Nationally, nearly 1 in 10 new vehicle registrations occurs in the Lone Star State. The central role cars play in Texas means that policies that impact the automobile industry affect us more than most. The tax reform package being considered by Congress has many benefits — but a major wrinkle in the Senate version could force some dealerships in Texas to shutter. That would d...
Nissan Rogue has been vaulted into the galactic of Star Wars last year, and basked into the spectacle surrounding the fortuitously named Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Nissan dealers, many of whom outfitted their stores with Rogue One decorations as part of the automaker's marketing alignment with Walt Disney's Lucasfilm, loved the connection to the beloved franchise. There was even a movie-themed limited-edition Rogue. But for the latest tie-in for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, dealers had a challenge for Nissan's marketing brass: How could they spread the ferv...
The new Star Wars movie will hit the theaters in a month and a half, but its carmaker partner Nissan is already seizing on the hype. The automaker on Friday will debut the first TV ad in what will be an aggressive campaign that links its driver-assistance technology to the droids that help steer the spaceships in the movie. This year the automaker will not enjoy the coincidental benefit of sharing a vehicle model name with the movie title, as it did with Nissan Rogue. But Nissan sees an opportunity in tying Star Wars' sci-fi and pop culture credentials to its driver assist...
As demand for the new E-class and SUVs rose, Mercedes-Benz took the lead in the luxury-car sales segment, its sales rose up to 11% in June. As we know for years, BMW, Audi and Mercedes have always been competitors to each other, being three most well-known and trusted German automakers. For so many years the first sales spot between them has been taken by BMW, and only know Mercedes was able to outrun it. Sales of BMW brand vehicles rose 2 percent to 192,873 last month, while third-placed Audi saw sales rise 1 percent to 170,650. Through June, Mercedes sold ...
Tesla has leapfrogged General Motors to become America’s most valuable carmaker, riding a wave of optimism about the electric vehicle company despite its continuing losses. Shortly after the start of trading on April 10th, Tesla's stock market cap overtook that of GM – it was worth about $51 billion, or $1.7 billion more than its established rival. While it's not clear that this will last, it's no mean feat for a company that has made just three car models in its brief 13-year history. The big question is whether or not Tesla can back up that value with raw sales number...
