  • Ford Needs To Focus On SUVs To Succeed In Europe
    02 Aug 2018

    Ford made it clear how important SUVs are to the US market when it announced that almost all non-SUV models would be killed off. The US auto market is clearly SUV-obsessed, but Europe still buys plenty of sedans and hatchbacks. Now, the question is: will Ford make the same decision to focus on SUVs in Europe? Automotive News reports that Ford will have to give SUVs a higher priority if it wants to be profitable in Europe.  Ford CEO Jim Hackett made it very clear: “We’re extremely dissatisfied with our performance in Europe.” Due to a combination of Brexit and a cons...

  • Tesla Will Be The First Automaker To Lose The Tax Credit For EVs
    13 Jul 2018

    The clock is ticking for Tesla buyers in the US to receive the full $7,500 federal tax credit for electric cars. Tesla delivered its 200,000th car this month which means a slow phase-out of the tax credit has begun.  Put in place early on in the Obama administration, the tax credit was seen as a tool that could be used to encourage customers to buy plug-in electric or hybrid vehicles. It was meant to offer consumers a bit of a break while the cost of battery technology slowly came down and to encourage manufacturers to push for greater advancements in that technology.  Tesl...

  • Car Dealer Tactics Stall Electric Car Sales
    30 May 2018

     Car dealerships in Scandinavia, and perhaps beyond, have something against electric vehicles. That’s the conclusion of an investigation conducted by researchers in Nordic countries, where they visited car dealerships and found agents actively discouraging buying electric cars.  To conduct the investigative study, the researchers visited 82 car dealerships in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, and Finland. In two-thirds of their visits, agents steered the researchers toward gas-powered cars, sometimes dismissing electric vehicles outright. In three-fourths of the visits, ve...

  • Volvo Will Dump Diesel Starting With Next S60 Sedan
    18 May 2018

    Volvo will not offer a diesel in its new S60 sedan, which will be released this spring. The new S60 will be available with a range of four-cylinder gasoline engines as well as two versions of its gasoline-electric plug-in hybrid powertrain.  This move comes as Volvo accelerates its shift toward electrified powertrains and away from diesels, which accounted for almost 80 percent of its sales in Europe last year. Diesel sales have taken a hit in Europe because of potential bans on older, more polluting cars with the powertrain and the high cost of improvements to ensure that new d...

  • Audi Plans To Launch 20 Electrified Models By 2025
    14 May 2018

    At its annual meeting, Audi announced an ambitious plan to make 20 new electric vehicles by 2025, most of them battery electrics. The car maker says that it will invest $47.6 billion into electrified cars, a new app platform for its cars, a new fleet of autonomous vehicles, and creating sustainable factories. The investment represents about two years of revenue for the company.  As a first step, Audi announced that it will reveal the production version of its new e-Tron electric SUV on August 30. It should have 300-mile range and slots between the size of the current Q5 and Q7. It wi...
