U.S. auto sales are down 2% this August, by totaling 16,14 million. We’ve got to admit that we expected to see even worse car sales data from the big three Detroit automakers, but as Houston area replaces flood-damaged cars and trucks after Hurricane Harvey, their shares got higher.

The damage to cars’ systems will, inevitably, ...
As we first wrote there are many dealerships affected by the Harvey hurricane, leaving them with no inventory, but this is not all the car sales will also be affected by it at first.

Are you waiting for the Frankfurt auto show coming up next month? If yes, we have good news for you. It seems Mercedes will be showing an updated S-Class cabriolet and coupe.

They're arranged in three rows, and you can see how the company took advantage of the thin profile of OLEDs in how the elements overlap each other and curve around the lamp. The company says each one is indivi...
