Analysts were expecting China to sell more than 60,000 green cars and hybrids but the truth is that only 44,874 new electric cars were sold by December. But let's be honest, even with these results they outsold more plug-in vehicles than US or Europe did. Overall China car sales share rose to a record of 1.45% above the USA (0.8%) and Europe (1.4%). Despite the “disappointing” plateauing in December, which is a bit like what happens when you expect that Usain Bolt will break the 0–100 meter world record every time he goes on the track, looking at the big pictur...
We don't know if the electric car sales are poised to accelerate in sales, or will they be stuck in neutral, but the latest forecast tells us what could occur under existing policies as technologies continue to evolve. Previously we had been expecting electrics to remain a tiny share of U.S. vehicle sales for decades to come. But now we see a brighter future for electric vehicles, with annual sales topping 1.2 million cars by 2025 plus an additional 186,000 light trucks. That's nearly double its forecast from last year, and nearly 10 times its forecast from 2014. ...
It seems like US is not in a good relationship with German automakers since Donald Trump was elected as the new president. He threatened them with a hefty import tax if they plan to sell cars in the United States that were built in other countries, repeating a claim that has shaken the global automotive industry and its biggest players at home and abroad.

Trump has issued similar warnings, via Twitter, to Ford, GM and Toyota. But ...
Toyota Motor Corp. plans to invest $10 billion in the U.S. over the next five years, the same as in the previous five years. This will be made in order to meet demand and upgrade plants to build more fuel-efficient models. The Japanese automaker has come under fire by President-elect Donald Trump for its plans, announced in 2015, to shift production of its Corolla to Mexico from Canada. The decision was not in response to Trump's remarks made in a recent tweet, but was part of Toyota's business strategy to invest in the U.S., where it has 10 plants in eight states. Planning ...
Not long ago the region which was taken by Toyota Motor Corp. was composed of more than half diesel cars, and now it got changed by the car brand. In more than a year Toyota is ready to report a leap in hybrid vehicle sales for this year. Toyota's goal right now is to enlarge its hybrid sales, until they reach the half of its worldwide sales, until the end of decade.Toyota had decided a few years ago to avoid taking on diesel cars in Europe. While demand for the Prius was increasing in the U.S. and other markets, it was barely being noticed in Europe. Its strategy was based on a...
