The car market is supported by the stronger global economic growth, and the car sales are showing steady growth. Gains are expected to continue, of course the top will be reached more slower compared to the last few years, but the most important thing at this step is that another annual record is coming. Increased replacement demand in the U.S. will be complemented by a renewed sales upturn in most emerging markets; however, China is the exception, with an expected slowdown. In the United States, we see increased replacement demand, growing consumer confidence and attractive financi...
For some enthusiasts, autonomous driving represents a potentially joyless future, perhaps offset by convenience and improved safety.

It seems like US is not in a good relationship with German automakers since Donald Trump was elected as the new president.

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.
