  • Only Five Three-Door Hatchbacks Are Left In The United States
    13 Aug 2018

    The three-door hatchback gives off a sporty two-door coupe vibe, while still retaining the practicality of a hatchback. Sadly, the popularity of two-door coupes has been waning in favor of SUVs and practical three-door hatchbacks have suffered as a result. Volkswagen has already killed off three-door versions of the Golf GTI and Golf R.  VW has recently announced the end of several other three-door hatchbacks including the Beetle, Polo, Scirocco, and Up, as well as the Audi A3. Even in Europe where hatchbacks are popular, VW now only sells three three-door hatchbacks: the Audi A1, th...

  • Ford F-150 Being Investigated For Possible Seatbelt Fires
    10 Aug 2018

    The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has reportedly opened an investigation regarding fire complaints in the 2015-2018 Ford F-150 full-size pickup truck.

  • Daimler Might Build Smart EVs In China Because America Doesn’t Want Them
    08 Aug 2018

    There’s no doubt that Daimler’s Smart car brand did not succeed in the US. Although it found some early success in Europe, Americans did not find the Smart car’s small dimensions particularly appealing. But Daimler, which is also the parent company of Mercedes-Benz, is not giving up on the Smart brand.  Bloomberg reports the German automaker is currently holding talks to build Smart cars in China with its long-time Chinese partner Beijing Automotive Group. The intent is to begin selling electric cars to the world’s largest EV market. Smart has already made pla...

  • 1.4 Million Ram Trucks Recalled Due To Tailgate Fault
    06 Aug 2018

    Fiat Chrysler is recalling 1.4 million Ram pickup trucks across the US to upgrade their tailgate locking mechanisms. After an investigation, the company discovered the power locking mechanisms in the tailgates of certain pickups have a small internal component that may break over time.  This could cause the tailgate to unlatch and open while driving, spilling the cargo onto the road and potentially causing an accident. The company says it is not aware of any related injuries or accidents. Specifically, the recall affects certain Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickups from model years 2015 t...

  • 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...
