Automotive, in the Chinese market the Volkswagen marque
now outsells GM’s main Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac brands
combined.
Both companies surpassed their targets to deliver more
than 3 million vehicles in China last year, with Volkswagen
reaching the goal on 5 December and GM a week later.
The German automaker had held a lead over its US rival of
about 70,000 vehicles through the year, according to data
from the two producers.
Competition is set to intensify among top European and
American automakers, which have announced a combined
$36 billion in investment for China this year even as more
Chinese cities are considering vehicle restrictions to cut
pollution.
“China is the big battleground,” Klaus Paur, head of
automotive research at the Paris-based global market
research company Ipsos, told

In news of Ford, the automaker was expected to
present a high-stakes redesign at the Detroit auto show
in January: an all-aluminium version of its F-150 truck, the
top-selling pickup of all time.
Metal Miner
on 27 December
carried a report that Alcoa Inc (Pittsburgh), which makes
aluminium blast shields for battlefield vehicles, had been
asked to lend some of its military-grade metal to the Ford
display.
At the Detroit show of 2013, Mark Fields, likely Ford’s next
CEO, pledged that the company would take as much as 750
pounds out of its next-generation trucks to meet tightening
fuel-economy regulations. Now Ford is eager to demonstrate
the toughness of aluminium to pickup buyers who have made
the F-150 the favourite it is.

Plug-in electric vehicles may be cutting-edge
technology, but an analysis performed at the request
of
USA Today
suggests that most will depreciate in value
more dramatically over five years than their conventional
counterparts. According to the findings by Kelley Blue Book,
which calculates resale prices by brand and model, some
of the biggest gaps involve 2014 models powered solely by
batteries, without gas engines.
One example – the Ford Focus Electric compact – will be
worth 20 per cent of its initial $35,995 list price, while a well-
outfitted conventional Focus Titanium will still command 36
per cent on resale. The little electric Chevrolet Spark EV is
projected to be worth 28 per cent of its $28,305 list price in
five years, while a comparable conventional version of the
same car will retain 40 per cent of its value.
As a mitigating factor for the buyer of a new plug-in electric,
many such cars qualify for a US federal tax credit of up to
$7,500, in addition to any state or local incentives.
