Today, Goody’s® Powder partnered with Dale Earnhardt Jr. to surprise a local Charlotte fan with some “Fast Relief.” Kim Homme, a retired 25-year captain of the Charlotte Fire Department and longtime Dale Jr. fan, was treated to a special Goody’s® Fast pit stop experience along with a new set of Goodyear tires for her vehicle.
“Kim has done so much for her community and it’s great to return the favor by providing her with some Goody’s® Fast Relief,” said Earnhardt Jr. “This year’s Appreci88ion Tour has focused on giving back to the fans and thanks to Goody’s®, we were able to take it a step further today.”
Homme had no idea that Dale and the Goody’s® crew were stationed inside the Fire Department. Members of the Charlotte Douglas Airport Fire Station, where she currently works for the Air National Guard as an airport firefighter, were on hand to help celebrate the moment and watch the crew perform the Goody’s® Fast pit stop.

Only 1 minicar out of 11 tested achieves an acceptable rating in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's small overlap front crash test, making these tiny vehicles the worst performing group of any evaluated so far.
The Chevrolet Spark's acceptable rating in the test, along with good ratings in the Institute's four other crashworthiness evaluations, earns the new minicar a 2014 TOP SAFETY PICK award. The Spark was among the initial award winners announced in December. The new small overlap test results for the rest of the minicar group mean that no other models in this size category join the Spark in the winner's circle yet.
In diesem Video können Sie sehen wie Sie Ihren Wagen von Zuhause mit Erdgas volltanken können. Somit werden Sie unabhangig von öffentlichen Tankstellen.
Als Peugeot vor gut drei Jahren das Sportcoupé RCZ auf den Markt brachte, waren sich die Experten nicht einig. Flottes, ausdruckstarkes Design und vernünftiges Fahrwerk ja, aber doch wohl kaum ein Auto für die traditionelle Peugeot-Kundschaft, die sich darüber hinaus daran gewöhnen müsse, erstmals in der Modell-Typenbezeichnung keine Null oder Doppelnull zu finden. Nun, die Verkaufszahlen belehrten die Zweifler schnell eines Besseren. Und auch in Deutschland machte der 2+2-Sitzer eine Blitz-Karriere. Seit seiner Einführung war es jedes Jahr meistverkaufter Import-Sportwagen. In 2012 entschieden sich 1.764 Kunden für das Sportcoupé. Klingt nicht nach viel, hat in diesem Segment aber einen beachtlichen Stellenwert. Bei der jetzt anstehenden Verjüngungskur ergab sich für die Verantwortlichen also die Frage, wie können wir den RCZ noch besser machen. Die Antwort: Nur durch behutsamen Feinschliff.

More than 33 years after the popular American TV show Knight Rider showed David ‘The Hoff’ Hasselhoff talking to his car KITT, Volvo and Microsoft are launching a wearable-enabled voice control system.
Volvo owners will be able to talk to their car via their Microsoft Band 2, allowing them to instruct their vehicle to perform tasks including, setting the navigation, starting the heater, locking the doors, flashing the lights or sounding the horn via Volvo’s mobile app Volvo on Call and the connected wearable device.
In November 2015 Volvo and Microsoft announced their high-profile collaboration with the first automotive application of HoloLens technology. HoloLens is the world’s first fully untethered holographic computer, which could be used in future to redefine how customers first encounter, explore and even buy car. Now the two companies are delivering remote voice control for Volvo cars via the Microsoft Band 2 as another proof-point in their ambition to jointly develop next generation automotive technologies.

Das ist eine faustdicke Überraschung - als erster chinesischer Autobauer hat Qoros bei einem europäischen Crashtest die Höchstnote geschafft. Bei der aktuellen Euro NCAP-Runde bekam der Qoros 3 Sedan die maximal möglichen fünf Punkte und shnitt damit bedeutend besser als andere chinesische Fahrzeuge ab. 2005 etwa war der Geländewagen Landwind spektakulär an den Sicherheitstests gescheitert. Knapp zwei Jahre später fiel der Brilliance mit seinem Modell BS6 ähnlich glatt durch. Im Euro NCAP-Crashtest bekam das Auto nur einen von fünf Punkten. Der Qoros wird zwar in China produziert, aber ist unter europäischer Leitung entwickelt und designt. Liegt das der Unterschied? Auf jeden Fall sind die Chancen des Qoros, der 2015 nach Westeuropa kommen soll, erheblich gestiegen.
