Electric Model 3 beats German luxury sedan competition in sales for February in Europe. In its first full month on the market, the Tesla Model 3 shot to #1 on the European sales charts in its so-called luxury mid-size sedan segment. That's quite an accomplishment for Tesla , the electric automaker that hails from California. Even more impressive is that the Model 3 isn't even available in the UK, as right-hand-drive versions have yet to be produced.

At least one person inside GM isn't completely focused on SUVs and trucks. On Valentine's Day, the official GM Design Instagram account posted a sketch of a sleek car that appears to be a sedan. We say that because there's only one vertical body line denoting doors in the center, so we aren't entirely sure how occupants would gain access. That doesn't really matter, because the interesting thing here is that we're seeing a car instead of an SUV, crossover, or truck. However, that doesn't mean GM is working on a new sedan. As far as we can tell, this is just a flight-of-fancy from an exterior designer. It's … [Read more...] about GM Lead Exterior Designer Envisions Sleek Sedan In An SUV World

This is because the Tesla all-wheel-drive traction control system is first-rate. In most cases, this is positive. However, being able to ultimately control your ride in any way you choose definitely has its merits.
