As we first wrote there are many dealerships affected by the Harvey hurricane, leaving them with no inventory, but this is not all the car sales will also be affected by it at first. Some predict a swift rebound once dealerships in the affected areas reopen and as people seek to replace their flood-damaged vehicles. Continued rain and floods from Harvey added to the misery in parts of Texas on Tuesday. Harvey struck over the weekend, leaving at least 10 dead, thousands of people displaced, and scores injured as the floodwaters rose. Texas accounts for about 9% of U.S. vehicle retail...
Aston Martin aims to boost its market share in the U.S. and Japan to mitigate against any risks from Brexit which could add costs and delays to sales to the European Union. Around 20 percent of the brand's top-end cars are currently exported to the United States whilst 15 percent are sold to the European Union, with whom unfettered tariff-free trade is at risk depending on the outcome of Brexit talks. Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer said the carmaker has ploughed resources into boosting demand in the world's biggest economy since the June 23 Brexit vote last year.&nbs...
Some credible sources have told us that The Escape plug-in hybrid, Ford Expedition hybrid and Lincoln Navigator hybrid are scheduled for release in 2019. Ford will have a lot of hybrids on the market in just one year, so we’ve been wondering if this means that the automaker will mainly focus on hybrids.

Ford is investing $4.5 billion to develop these 13 vehicles. Adding hybrid versions of Ford's biggest SUVs m...
When it comes to driving cars with an internal combustion engine, catastrophic is not a word you generally want to hear. That’s especially true when the car in question has 707 hp and goes by the name Hellcat, be it the two-door Dodge Challenger or the four-door Dodge Charger. Going through the latest recall from FCA – which affects 1,209 Hellcat models sold only in 2017 – we don’t see catastrophic mentioned specifically. However, we can’t think of a better word to describe a rapid and sudden loss of oil that can seize the engine, spray onto the windshield, and po...
California is the number 1 state in United States when it comes to plug in hybrid cars and battery electric models. Well, that’s not much of a wonder since the state offers numerous local and statewide incentives, and many utility companies reward customers for choosing an electric car over a fossil-fuel powered vehicle. If we combine all these things, we get a very friendly environment for electric cars. According to the latest report released by non-profit organization Next 10, 5 percent of new-car sales in the state are now electric vehicles. That figure reflects new cars sold du...
