Yup. Welcome to the trade wars. I do not see many winners, but consumers will always be the big losers.

96 months already? I thought that car financing stopped at 72 months. How does a car buyer avoid going underwater with a 96 month finance plan? How many people keep their cars for eight years?

Well, we do live in a country where badge snobbery clouds good judgement.

The United States has, as a people, been largely rejecting the metric system going all the way back to its birth in 1792 in France. I highly doubt that even millennials will fully adopt the metric system, As for this new naming scheme, I am not sure why this is necessary.

Sounds like she needs a suspended license and traffic school.

I wonder when Hyundai will take this platform and apply it to its CUVs and minivan and other sedans. One platform to meet most needs is a very good idea.

I wonder if she will be fired for this.

Then buy a CT6 Platinum AWD TT V6 and forget the Mercedes S560. MB is rarely a good value anywhere.

I have never understood the case for the QX30. In the wagon/hatchback era, it would be Infiniti's best seller. Right now it is Infiniti's worst seller. Too bad about all those in the UK getting fired over this, but the product is not selling.

This and other automotive moves brought to you by BREXIT: one of the craziest ideas the UK has ever pursued.

Voice control when Siri, Alexa and Bixby underachieve? No thanks.

Well, Mary Barra has put GM in a better financial place than it has been in at least the last 25 years. As for needing a product person to be CEO, that might be necessary IF there are no product people elsewhere in GM's C-suite. A visionary is more required for GM than even Apple, given that Tim Cook was always a supply chain specialist rather than a visionary.

Is there any ONE thing that Cadillac should do that Audi, BMW, Benz, Lexus etc.?

Sounds likely. Either way, an AWD minivan is a good idea given what a minivan is for.

The '99 Escalade and the '98 Navigator are good choices, but both are preceded by the original Lexus RX300. The RX300 matters more for one reason: unibody vs BOF. Every SUV was BOF prior to the likes of the RAV4 and CR-V back in the 1990s and the original RX300 was the first luxury CUV.

It is unsurprising that many multinational firms would rather be in the EU than not. The UK chose Brexit for sovereignty reasons and their citizens will pay a price for it. The UK kept pound sterling and that allowed them to avoid the worst economic problems that plagued the Euro bloc over the past decade. Unfortunately, the UK had arguably the best deal possible in the EU but wanted to go their own way on this. The UK will probably recover but it will be a very painful economic transition, with lost jobs and a nasty recession to boot. Oh well, at least they have their economic sovereignty back.
