It Was a Trap? Electronic Car Door Handles May Finally Get Safer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
New rules could force automakers to make emergency door releases obvious and easy to find. Back in February, China announced it would crack down on hidden exterior door handles like those found on many new electric vehicles, and we noted that federal legislation was being crafted to establish door-handle and emergency-egress requirements in the United States.

AEV’s New Ford Super Duty FX370 Package Brings Big Off-Road Capability for Less (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The latest Ford HD truck AEV package offers plenty of capability with more daily drivability. If you want one of the best, most rugged adventure-ready off-road trucks offered in the U.S., then chances are you’re going to seek out something outfitted by American Expedition Vehicles, or AEV.

Read excerpt
The German automaker is unlikely to be barred, but Volvo and Lotus could potentially be at risk if the bill passes. Polestar might not be the only automaker facing a ban in the U.S. due to Chinese ties. A Reuters report states that the U.S. Senate Commerce Committee approved legislation this week that could also put Mercedes-Benz at risk due to the nearly 20 percent passive stake in the automaker that is owned separately by China’s BAIC Group and Chinese billionaire and Geely founder Li Shufu.
