Just imagine what you’d feel if on your way to the dealership your car would disappear. You might think that’s crazy, but that’s exactly what happened to the car of this couple who simply came at the dealership for a repair. The couple dropped the car here and this was the last time they’ve seen it. Here’s what the owner has to say about the incident: I bought a car, 2005 Mustang GT, bright yellow, can't miss it, back in June of last year. The Mustang was not just Crystal's pride and joy -- it was also how he got to work. When the car broke down, thin...
It’s the first time in the last 6 months when the retail sales posted are this low. This indicates a tempering of the consumer spending that’s been carrying the economy. Purchases rose 0.1 percent, after a 0.6 percent increase in the prior month that was stronger than previously reported. Just four of the 13 major retail categories saw gains in February sales. Receipts dropped at electronics and appliances stores, apparel outlets and car dealers, a sign of more moderate consumption in the first quarter. While purchases may have been restrained by a temporary slowdown in ...
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. The acquisition of Mobileye could propel the world's largest computer chipmaker into the front ranks of automotive suppliers at a time when Intel has been downplaying its core semiconductor business. It also promises to escalate the arms race among the world's carmakers and supp...
Electric car sales in the U.S. continued their strong showing in February, and that exactly means that despite rumors we’re having another monthly record. The 12,049 plug-ins sold last month translate to roughly a growth rate of 55 percent and plug-ins now stand at a 0.90 percent market share. The big challenge, though, will be March, since that month in 2016 saw nearly 14,000 sales. The best-selling model so far this year has been the Chevrolet Volt, but a maturing market with a growing number of competitors means the differences between the leaders is pretty small. GM ...
Tesla doesn’t even surprise us anymore for showing growth year by year. We weer expecting that the automaker will show steadily growth in 2016, and so it did. Nearly 80,000 Tesla cars were bought by consumers in 2016. Tesla's sales improvements have taken place since it launched its first designed-from-scratch Model S sedan in 2012. In 2015, the Model X SUV was added to the lineup, and the Model S has been progressively improved over the past four years, with the top-end P100D capable of outrunning the fastest, most exotic hypercars in a 0-60 mph sprint. But during the ti...
