Last year was a record breaker for China car sales, comparing to US car sales. Monthly sales, which first cracked the 2 million mark as recently as 2013, surged above 3 million in December. Still, pessimists were focused on what would happen in January, when the rollback of a tax discount for small-engined cars was expected to hit demand. Sure enough, when January sales figures came out, they were up just 0.8 percent from a year earlier, compared with an average 14 percent pace of growth through 2016. Optimists' hopes were undimmed: The timing of Lunar New Ye...
The dozen owners of Lamborghini Venenos – an ultra-rare supercar that cost $4 million and up – will be receiving some bad news via registered mail: their Italian dream machines are being recalled. The 12-cylinder, 750-horsepower models that Automobili Lamborghini SpA billed as a “street-legal racing car” are among about 5,900 Aventadors the automaker will recall worldwide over risks that a fuel system fault could lead to fires. Included in the recall are the only three Venenos hardtops sold, which carried a price of about $4 million (3 million euros), plus an...
America has its favorites when it comes to cars and it's Toyota Camry. Being a leader for 15 years, that is something any car maker would want for its cars.

The Camry, last reworked four years ago, has made a living by being a solidly reliable if dull ride for people who si...

The Palo Alto, Calif.-based maker of electric cars and energy-storage products delivered about 22,200 vehicles in the final three months of last year, according to a statement Tuesday. The total trailed the automaker’s projection for 25,000 units and brought its full-year tally to 76,230 vehicles, below its forecast for at least 80,000 units. Musk has a history of setting ambitious targets and timelines for Tesla a...
Japan's Takata, maker of defective air bags that have been linked to 11 U.S. deaths, could settle criminal charges with the U.S. Department of Justice before the Obama administration leaves office next month. Part of a settlement would include Takata pleading guilty to criminal misconduct. The Justice Department has investigated whether Takata hid information from safety regulators and issued misleading statements about the dangers posed by the air bags. Any deal would likely include a monitor to ensure Takata's compliance with the agreement. The Wall Street Journal, citing ...
