Bill Ford is tired of hearing the future of cars belongs to Silicon Valley. Yet for years, the Apple and Google crowd have been telling him that only Big Tech can make driverless vehicles. The Ford Motor Co. executive chairman and great-grandson of auto pioneer Henry Ford said that probably they were “too dumb to get it”. He’s not kidding. Tech giants Apple Inc. and Google, once intent on disrupting, if not destroying, Detroit, have concluded for now that they don’t want to build cars. Sure, they still bank on supplying the autonomous software that will drive robot ride...
Strong US and China car sales and a drop in costs for the faulty ignitions recall helped General Motors double profits in the third quarter. The sales in the two biggest GM markets helped the company offset ongoing slumps in Europe, South America and elsewhere. With unit sales up 3.8% from a year ago to 2.42 million cars and trucks in the quarter, helped by a 17.3% jump in China.

Its model S sales jumped 59% over the same quarter last year, which means it increases its importance between other luxury cars. The carmaker may keep its sales results confidential, but one thing it still reveals, that Tesla is responsible now in the U.S. for almost a third of sales in the sedans' segment. Its nearest competitors are the newly updated BMW 7-Series and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Spokespeople for...
This September US electric car sales have risen 0,87%, it is already a big plus for the green cars market, even though it still has a long way to go. The plug-in cars market is dominated just like a few years ago by Tesla, and a few other models like Chevy Volt, Ford Fusion Energi and Nissan Leaf-that keeps hanging in there despite the growing and coming competition. We were expecting for the green cars sales to grow, and evolve, because we have great expectations that by 2025 the country will be dominated by these types of vehicles. But, we couldn't help but obse...
