The latest study revealed by specialists reveals that policy would deliver the sharpest blow to Jaguar Land Rover while giving a leg up to Ford Motor Co. and Tesla Inc. It seems like most automakers would need to raise vehicle prices by thousands of dollars, which is more than $17,000 per vehicle in Jaguar Land Rover’s case, because it imports all its vehicles. Ford, with significant domestic manufacturing, would need to mull the smallest price hike among major automakers, at about $282 per vehicle, followed by General Motors at $995, according to the report. The estimates aim...

US automakers have been building cars in Mexico and Canada for decades, long before borderless free-trade and NAFTA became major campaign issues.

It seems that the new president Donald Trump didn't manage to win the love of China yet, truly saying the idea of launching an all-trade war against China isn't something the country must really like.

For those with a little faith in the future, Nissan Motor looks like a bargain. The U.S. auto sales appear to have downshifted for now. This spells tough times for Japan’s auto makers, which count the U.S. among their biggest markets. Toyota Motor Corporation is also feeling more profit-sapping pain from the strong yen. This is due to the fact that a large portion of the vehicles it sells in the U.S. are imports from Japan. Honda and Niss...
After a strong run in US of Porsche vehicles, an abrupt slow down has come to the company in July, followed of course by low sales. Porsche's sales have fallen 18% the previous month, which was a stagnant moment for the brand. Even the wide range of SUVs like Cayenne and Macan couldn't save the company from this powerful plung. As it was officially revealed the Porsche cars North America which imports and distributes models like: Boxter, 911, Cayman, Panamera and the two previously named, a bit more than 3870 vehicles were sold in July, that is less than expected.
