It seems like US is not in a good relationship with German automakers since Donald Trump was elected as the new president. He threatened them with a hefty import tax if they plan to sell cars in the United States that were built in other countries, repeating a claim that has shaken the global automotive industry and its biggest players at home and abroad. The new president said that they can build cars anywhere in the world, but for every car that comes to the USA, they will have to pay 35 percent tax. Trump has issued similar warnings, via Twitter, to Ford, GM and Toyota. But ...
2016 was the third straight year Americans bought fewer hybrids, plug-ins, and diesels than the year before. Even so, we have all the signs for the industry to get well in 2017, and show positive sales and new records. Last year, green car sales fell about 11 percent from the previous year, to about 446,000 units.

The F-series, best known for the popular F-150, has been America’s best-selling truck for the 40 consecutive years since its launch. Ford says it’s sold more than 26 million since the model line came out in 1977. The F-series has also been the best-selling vehicle of any kind in America for 35 years, the company said. Ford has sold 818,580 of the trucks in the years since it launched the F-series. It started with the F-100 as a base truck back in 1977, and replaced it with the F-150 in 1984. The evolution of the F-series followed changes in how people perceived and used ...
Donald Trump, the new US president threatened to levy a “big limit tax” on Toyota Motor Corp. vehicles build in Mexico. The new elected president also threatened General Motors and Ford Motor Co. who planned on opening new plants in Baja, Mexico. He wants these companies to enlarge their plants here in US. In his tweet, Trump appears to upset Toyota’s skeleton for a $1 billion plant in Guanajuato, Mexico, with a existent bureau in Baja, a western Mexico shred that abuts California. The Baja plant in Tijuana builds a Toyota Tacoma pickup, while a designed Guanajuato...
