Jaguar Land Rover has recently reported record sales and a 10 per cent rise in revenues, but this didn't increase the annual profits of the carmaker. On the contrary, annual profits at Jaguar Land Rover have paradoxically fallen 40 per cent.This year the British automaker's sales increased 13 per cent to 521,571, and it is the first time the company has broken through the half-million sales barrier. JLR said its pre-tax profits fell down considerably a year earlier, primarily reflecting market conditions during the first half of the year, especially in Chi...
Waiting for the U.S. May sales reports, analysts forcast the results to be slightly down mainly because of two fewer selling days than in May 2015.In the particular case of Fiat Chrysler however, the automaker is likely to register its 74th consecutive year-over-year sales increase in May and it is mainly due to the minivans segment.

Still, this time FCA may have hurdles to overcome to top the 202,227 vehicles it sold in the U.S. in May 2015, it...
Can you guess which company is recalling next? Well, this might sound a bit strange but Ford Motor Co. is recalling nearly 271,000 previous-generation F-150s.

As the owners complained it was hard for them to stop the car even if they were pres...
A study published today revealed that more than four out of five people would prefer not to ride in fully autonomous vehicles. Almost 50% of the respondents would like to drive in a simple vehicle with no self-driving capabilities, maybe just with partially self-driving or completely self-driving technology, it is what the results of the study from University of Michigan show. Only 6% of the participants at this study would like to drive such a car, while 39% of them prefer partially self-driving cars. If we'd have to make some comparisons between the young drivers and the...
It's big vehicles time: crossovers, pickups, vans and SUVs ran car sales off U.S. roads in April. Roomy and fuel-efficient trucks accounted for 59.3 percent of light vehicles sold last month. If taking into consideration that last April, trucks represented 55.2 percent of the market, we may say that this year the highest level of truck sales ever for the month has been reached.Every car segment lost market share, from midsize and compact to sporty and alternative power. Every truck segment - volume and premium crossovers, pickup, van and SUV - gained market sh...
