The California Air Resources Board voted unanimously to move ahead with progressively stricter tailpipe emissions regulations, along with a separate mandate that requires automakers to sell more zero-emissions vehicles.

Orange County new vehicle sales mostly held steady in February, slipping a mere 0.3 percent in yet another sign the hot auto industry is at a plateau.

All of which means that now is an excellent time to think about changing your current vehicle for a newer one. March is a good t...
Last year was a record breaker for China car sales, comparing to US car sales. Monthly sales, which first cracked the 2 million mark as recently as 2013, surged above 3 million in December. Still, pessimists were focused on what would happen in January, when the rollback of a tax discount for small-engined cars was expected to hit demand. Sure enough, when January sales figures came out, they were up just 0.8 percent from a year earlier, compared with an average 14 percent pace of growth through 2016. Optimists' hopes were undimmed: The timing of Lunar New Ye...
