With the way that many cars are financed these days over a three year term, tens of thousands of models from 2014 will be coming back for specialist dealers to buy for their customers.

In January 2016, the company sold 57,995 units of F-Series trucks, which was 13% higher on a YoY basis. These strengthening sales of Fo...
Intel U.S. agreed to buy Israeli autonomous-driving technology company Mobileye with a value of $14.7 billion. The new technology could thrust the U.S. chipmaker into direct competition with rivals Nvidia Corp. and Qualcomm Inc. to develop driverless systems and components for global automakers.

It also promises to escalate the arms race among the world's carmakers and supp...
