Getting Interior Quality You’re Sure to Love

Every year we see new models on the market and some that are simply upgraded to be better than they were in the past.

Lexus Is The First Place of Autonomy for Toyota

The Battle at the Top

When it comes to the flagship vehicles of different manufacturers the expectation is that you have a vehicle which gives you every feature and benefit the manufacturer can think of and add. This is certainly what you get when you look at the Lexus LS and the BMW 7-Series, but which one of these two flagship sedans is the one you want to drive the most? Are you more enticed by the Japanese style and modern features of the Lexus or are you more apt to lean toward the longstanding performance and perfection of the German engineering contained in the BMW model? Let’s look at them both. (more…)

It's untested and has infrastructure problems with only 11 charging stations in all of California. That can be scaled quickly, but they'll need to create a need first. It might be the chicken and the egg dilemma. (more…)
