This is a blog post in a list of posts. The blog post will introduce the list and provide some statistics on the types of cars in the United States. In recent years, US automakers have been struggling to sell cars, with consumers increasingly opting for SUVs and electric cars. In 2017 alone, US automakers mustered just 17% of all auto sales, down from 45% three decades ago. In order to boost sales in 2018, car manufacturers are doing everything they can to capitalize on society’s love affair with SUVs and electric vehicles- including adding more projects related to these markets into their line up. Here are the latest automotive trends that automakers will be exploring in 2018. The battle against SUVs continue to rage on. Car companies hope to combat this by creating even sleeker SUVs, which they can market as compact or sub-compact luxury utility vehicles. Climate change has been a big focus for car manufacturers for years now, and many of them are drastically increasing their electric car production in order to release more zero-emission vehicles, especially after research revealed that consumers are becoming more environmentally conscious than ever before. These new electric cars include the Toyota Rav4 EV, the Chevy Bolt, and Nissan Leaf. At the beginning of last year, the US government decided to remove fuel economy and CO2 emissions from their list of official air pollutants. This means that car manufacturers can no longer directly reduce air pollution thanks to their vehicle’s fuel economy, which in turn increases demand for vehicles with more powerful engines. The acceleration of technology is making cars smarter than ever before. As technology improves, so does the hardware that sits beneath cars, allowing for more advanced safety features and better acceleration. The Pioneer AVIC-8000NEX is an example of this. With its built-in GPS, this car can locate its owner when they are in trouble by connecting them with emergency services via phone call or text message. In 2018, car manufacturers will continue to experiment with autonomous vehicles. In addition, they plan on increasing the number of SUVs and electric cars in their line up. Regarding safety, automakers are expected to release more safety features that can be used by other cars on the road during a crash. These features include pedestrian detection for blind pedestrians, automatic braking for independent rear-end crashes and collision avoidance. In cities around the world, car manufacturers are designing ‘smart’ parking garages that will encourage drivers to leave their vehicle in a garage when the garage is not in use. By enabling this feature, automakers hope to decrease traffic congestion and prevent unsafe parking from happening in busy spaces. In an effort to improve fuel mileage, car manufacturers are working on a ‘stop-start’ feature in which a vehicle is turned off when a driver comes to a complete stop. Upon start up, the driver can push a button in order to engage the accelerator, allowing the vehicle to accelerate from a complete stop. Ever wondered how car manufacturers know how much fuel their vehicles use per 100 miles? They conduct fuel economy tests that last for over 700 hours and involve driving vehicles from coast-to-coast in order to understand how their vehicles perform under different driving conditions. cfa1e77820
