<span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: navy; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: justify;">Bloomberg reports the German <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">automaker</span> 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 <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">electric cars</span> to the world’s largest EV market. Smart has already made plans to become an EV-only brand, so it makes a lot of sense to get a strong foothold in China.

<span style="background-color: white; color: navy; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: justify;">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 through 2017 equipped with 5-foot-7 and 6-foot-4 cargo beds.</span><br />

Its replacement is the all-new <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Nissan Kicks</span>.

It brought attention to the brand.

<span style="background-color: white; color: navy; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">The highly anticipated McLaren F1 Longtail successor is finally here, and it is making its full debut at Goodwood. This </span><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: navy; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700;">car </span><span style="background-color: white; color: navy; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">is called the P1 GT, and it is the latest in a line of boosted, race-prepped McLaren from Lazante. They took the already fabulous McLaren P1 and fitted it with an aggressive new aerodynamic package that includes a fixed rear wing and longer tail. The company did not specify if the power has been increased or how much the P1 GT weighs.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: navy; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Mercedes pop-up stores are coming to the US this year. Unlike traditional dealerships, pop-up stores are designed to focus on showing off the product, rather than just selling it. Mercedes experimented last year with pop-up stores in Atlanta and Miami and will follow up with a third location in Chicago. This year, Mercedes is planning on opening more of them probably focused on new product launches. The pop-up stores will look a bit like Apple stores that you see in the mall.</span><br />
