Trump pushed automakers during a roundtable in Ypsilanti Township earlier this month for more U.S. plants, and in a speech to autoworkers the same day he said plants are coming back — other plants that were expected to be built in other countries are not being bui...

We’ve got approximately over 30 battery-powered and plug-in hybrids offerings on the market, that’s like 159,139 vehicles for the US. It’s the 70 percent year-over-year increase in monthly sales, which helped build the momentum to stronger overall sales. Of course, the sales jump by 37% comes following a five percent decline in sales from 2014 to 2015. The slight increase has spurr...
