The Chinese automotive market has one American brand they love more than any other. That brand is Buick. This brand has become so popular in China that we now have a Buick plant in China and enjoy the fact that the new midsized SUV in the Buick lineup comes from this plant, and now the Chinese market will give us what we will see in a new car and the styling that will show us the new lineup. The new Buick Velite Concept is one that came out and showed off as something that we didn’t expect.
The Mustang Keeps Getting Better
If you want to drive a Mustang that offers you the manual transmission and no power steering of the old school models you’ll be sorely disappointed. In fact there is a good chance the car will drop the 3.7-liter V6 from the lineup but other items will be added to make this a better car to drive than it’s been in the past. For 2018 the plans are in place for the Mustang to receive some impressive improvements to make it a car that is even more performance oriented on the road and on the track.

Be Satisfied with your Car Buying Experience
Buying a vehicle is one of the biggest investments you make in your life and you want that experience to be one that’s easy to navigate and enjoy. In the past it was hard to gauge how dealers handled the deal and what made sense for them to sell you a vehicle, but for the past thirty years JD Power has compiled a score that is called the Sales Satisfaction Index Study which measures your satisfaction with a dealership based upon specific factors to help understand why you buy your car from on dealership or another.

Is dependability boring? When you go somewhere or make a commitment to someone are you always where you’re expected to be and depended upon to get done what needs to get done?

2017 BMW X1: Barely an SUV, but Full of Vigor
The BMW X1 has been called many things, even by the company that makes it. This vehicle performs in the compact crossover SUV class as one of the most impressive small vehicles that sits up higher on the road, but it really doesn’t have any utility to speak of.

The Argument Continues
The discussion between which type of engine is better continues to loom onward. Some love their naturally aspirated engines that are pure power and only tuned to what they want while many have fallen for the turbocharged boost that you can now have on smaller engines. The benefits in fuel efficiency are obviously going to favor the turbocharged engines and the fact that you can get more power out of smaller engines is certainly admirable as well. There’s still nothing quite like the instant power that a pure engine gives you on one that hasn’t been boosted in any way.
