Noticias Económicas y Financieras Las guerras del streaming llevan años, pero las cosas están cambiando con la formación de nuevas alianzas. Walt Disney $DIS y Warner Bros. Discovery $WBD acaban de presentar un nuevo paquete de transmisión que incluye Disney+, Hulu y Max. La suscripción incluirá los universos Marvel y DC, así como Star Wars y HBO, y estará disponible en EE. UU. a partir de este verano. El robo se ha convertido en un gran problema para los minoristas en los últimos años, especialmente porque los márgenes se ven presionados en el entorno económico actual. Muchas ubicaciones en las grandes ciudades han agregado cajas de plexiglás en lugares vulnerables, al tiempo que cierran o dividen artículos de alto precio como productos de salud y belleza. En la última redada, las autoridades de Manhattan acusaron a un minorista local de cosméticos por presuntamente dirigir una operación de vallado contra robos en tiendas minoristas, que albergaba $1M en bienes robados a ladrones, de los cuales 212.000 dólares fueron robados de Macy's $M. La Ciudad de Nueva York ha tomado medidas proactivas para combatir el creciente robo en comercios minoristas, asignando $40M a equipos dedicados a hacer cumplir la ley. Después de una trayectoria de 60 años, General Motors $GM se despide del Chevy Malibu para dejar espacio a más vehículos eléctricos e híbridos. La compañía finalizará la producción del vehículo en noviembre e invertirá $390M para remodelar su planta de Kansas City para construir la próxima generación del Chevy Bolt EV y reanudar la fabricación del Cadillac XT4. Con el Malibu y el Camaro desaparecidos, el Corvette será el último Chevy ICE que quede.

It's the last week in March as we head toward our 5th Friday and 5th Saturday. On our way, we're covering Honda's unilateral cut to Dealer profit margins plus BYD's 10k ‘Mini Lambo”, as well as another impending anchor on the power grid. In a move in their shift towards electric vehicles, Honda is cutting dealer profit margins in both the U.S. and Canada, triggering significant industry backlash. Honda announced they will reduce dealership profit margins on new vehicles in the U.S. by 0.5 percent and up to 44 percent in Canada as part of a broader adjustment strategy affecting marketing, advertising, and service payments.The decision has stirred pushback among Honda dealers. U.S. dealers describe the margin cut as "inappropriate but not surprising," reflecting the hefty investments required for the EV transition. Canadian dealers, facing more severe cuts, label the move a "blatant money grab," anticipating a shift of financial burden onto consumers.The reduction is expected to impact dealerships' bottom lines, with U.S. dealers particularly worried about smaller operations. Brian Kanyan, chair of the Honda National Dealer Advisory Board, emphasized the need for dealers to adapt, expressing hope for Honda's support in adjustment efforts.BYD is launching the Seagull EV, dubbed the "Lamborghini mini," which features  BYD's Blade batteries and offers a range of up to 252 miles,  that is priced under $10,000, raising concerns among American car manufacturers about their ability to compete on price and innovation.Ford and GM are adjusting their strategies towards more affordable EVs. Ford is focusing on compact electric pickups and SUVs, and GM is planning to introduce a next-gen Chevy Bolt EV.BYD's aggressive pricing and integrated manufacturing approach are underscoring a broader industry trend towards lower-cost EVs, compelling American manufacturers to innovate or risk losing significant market share.Ford CEO, Jim Farley called the vehicle “pretty damn good” and continued, “If we fail to keep up with Chinese automakers, like BYD, then 20% to 30% of your revenue is at risk... As the CEO of a company that had trouble competing with the Japanese and the South Koreans, we have to fix this problem.”The rapid expansion of AI data centers across the United States is triggering concerns that the national power grid may not withstand the surge in electricity demand. AI data centers are requiring exponentially more power than their predecessorsStates like Oregon's Portland General Electric has  doubled their demand forecast for the next 5 years and and Georgia is looking at a 17x increase in their industrial power forecastHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

It's Friday and we're ready to toe the line with Retail Auto as we talk about GM layoffs, Carvana's expansion of its same-day services, and one UPS driver who shares his paycheck and sparks some second thoughts from commenters. General Motors has announced a temporary halt in Chevy Bolt EV production, leading to layoffs of 1,314 workers at two Michigan plants.GM has ceased production of the Chevy Bolt EV and EUV, resulting in 945 job cuts at the Lake Orion assembly plant. The plant is set for a transformation to produce future EV models.An additional 369 jobs will be lost at the Lansing Grand River Assembly plant with the end of Chevy Camaro Coupe production.GM plans a significant shift to its Ultium EV platform, with investments and retooling of the plant leading to the new Chevy Bolt EV reappearing on this new platform in 2025.In a notice to the state, GM noted that the reason they are announcing the layoffs so late were due to the slow ratification process of the UAW contract.Affected workers, particularly at the Orion plant, are being offered alternative opportunities in Michigan. This restructuring follows a new contract with the UAW, which included significant wage adjustments.Carvana is expanding its same-day delivery service to new markets in the South and MidwestAfter introducing its same-day delivery service in November to Atlanta, Dallas-Fort Worth, Tampa, and Orlando, and has now extended it to Cincinnati and Columbus, Ohio.The service allows customers to buy a vehicle online and receive it the same day, emphasizing convenience and speed during the busy holiday season.Carvana senior director of market operations and expansion Jacqueline Hearns said in a news release, “Especially in the middle of a busy holiday season, customers value speed and convenience, and we couldn't be happier to make car buying faster and easier than ever before for Columbus and Cincinnati-area residents with our new same day delivery offering.”Customers also have the option for same-day drop-off when selling their vehicles to Carvana at designated locations.A UPS driver's TikTok video revealing his weekly paycheck gains nearly 12 million views, sparking discussions about pay transparency and career choices in various industries.Skyler Stutzman, an Oregon-based UPS driver, shared his earnings of approximately $2,004 pre-tax for one week, leading to widespread surprise over the high pay rate of UPS drivers.The Teamsters union secured a total compensation package for UPS drivers worth $170,000, including benefits, highlighting the value of union negotiations.Just too good:  One X user @battleangelviv  posted this screenshot of an iphone update screen with the caption “breaking: apple recalls almost all iphones”Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

It's a great Thursday to be in the car biz as we talk about a record breaking dealership sale. We also tell you when to get that new Chevy Bolt, as well as a $50 gas card from Old Navy. We told you it was a great day. Show Notes with links:In a record breaking transaction, Florida-based Al Hendrickson Toyota, the second-busiest dealership in the US, has been sold to Morgan Automotive Group in what has become the most expensive dealership purchase in history. The landmark deal, facilitated by Haig Partners, underscores a vibrant dealership buy-sell market, undeterred by the ongoing uncertainties brought by the COVID-19 pandemic.Al Hendrickson, Jr. stated in a press release, “I always knew I wanted to be in business with my Dad, and I am so incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to spend the last 30+ years working with and learning from him. Our approach to business has always been that we are not in the car business, rather, we are in the people business. We live by our slogan, ‘It's All About You,' in providing exceptional customer service, making it a point to know all our more than 200 associates by name and being active in our communities. To say that I am extremely proud of what we have built together is an understatement. It is truly more than I could have ever dreamed. I have loved every minute of these 30+ years.”Morgan Automotive Group, also a family business, is Florida's largest dealership conglomerate. With this latest acquisition, the group now owns 67 stores across multiple brands.If you want a new Chevy Bolt, you'd better get to the dealership fast! Time is running out for fans of the popular EV as GM has announced it will be discontinuing production of the Bolt later this year, focusing instead on its newer Ultium platform-based models.Despite the Bolt being a best-seller and a "huge technical achievement," GM plans to transition its EV portfolio to its Ultium platform.GM will replace the Bolt with the low-cost Equinox EV, starting at around $30,000, with up to 300 miles of range, although it's unclear when the new model will be widely available as their focus will be on three high-volume Ultium-based models launching this year – the Silverado EV, the Blazer EV, and the Equinox EV.The last order cycle for the Chevy Bolt EV and EUV starts on Thursday, August 17Old Navy is leaning into the automotive experience tied to the 4th of July as they are giving free gas to the first 250 cars at select RaceTrac stations across five U.S. states. Free gas events will take place in Orlando, Atlanta, Dallas, Nashville, and New Orleans.Old Navy credit card holders will receive double the rewards, with each car receiving a $50 RaceTrac gift card.Social media followers of Old Navy also have a chance to win free fuel.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

Welcome to Wednesday as we talk about a Tesla deal with the Oneida Indian Nation allowing it to sell cars in Upstate NY. We also talk about GM's outlook on EV profits through 2030, as well as a unique approach to service department efficiency. Tesla's landmark partnership with the Oneida Indian Nation will see the establishment of its first direct sales outlet in Upstate New York. The showroom, set to open in 2025, will boost access to electric vehicles and charging infrastructure in the region, augmenting the push towards green energy solutions.The agreement with the Oneida Indian Nation provides a legal framework for Tesla's expansion into Upstate New York, overcoming the state law that mandates vehicle manufacturers to sell through dealerships.The 25,000-square-foot showroom will be situated in Madison County on Oneida Indian Nation-owned land, significantly enhancing Tesla's reach beyond the New York City area.Tesla will begin delivering pre ordered vehicles from the site right from the casino while the showroom is under constructionGM CEO Mary Barra has stated that she doesn't foresee profitable electric cars in the $30,000 to $40,000 range until the end of the decade or perhaps even later.Barra acknowledged that Tesla currently leads in EV technology, profitability, and scale, but she believes that this lead is not permanent and GM can catch up.She mentioned that EV battery costs are still too high to build profitable mass-market vehicles that sell for $30,000 to $40,000. However, she predicted that EV and combustion vehicle costs will equalize sometime in the latter part of this decade.The article points out that GM is currently selling the Chevy Bolt EV starting at $26,500 and has promised a starting price of around $30,000 for the Equinox EV. The profitability of these models is unclear.Service departments are finding increased efficiency and revenue through an unique approach: book clubs. Sherwood Ford in Alberta and Shaheen Chevrolet in Michigan both have implemented reading programs with much success.At Shaheen, team leaders read Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink one chapter at a time, each writing a synopsis and discussing how they can apply the principles.After implementing some of the ideas, one service advisor's average repair order for customer-pay work, which jumped 23 percent in one quarter to $166.38.For the team at Sherwood, reading isn't mandatory, but employees are paid to read. Around 40% of the employees can get books from an office “library.”They are paid $5-$10 for a short book, and longer books bring more. Employees have to write a couple-hundred summary and are invited to join a daily service advisor's meeting, part of which discusses a book.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

It feels like a great Tuesday to be in the car business to us! Today we talk about the recently released IRS rules on EV credits. We also discuss a new study that talks about the power of letting employees break the rules, as well as Apple breaking the bank…again. Automakers, Dealers, and in-market EV consumers were waiting for the IRS to release new EV tax credit rules like a teenager waits for the latest Taylor Swift drop. After the new sourcing rules went into effect, there were only six battery-electric models that still qualify for the full $7,500 credit: Cadillac Lyriq, Chevy Bolt EV and EUV, certain versions of the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y, Ford E-Transit and F-150 Lightning.Ford, Stellantis, and one Tesla model, the Model 3 Standard Range Rear Wheel Drive, will lose half credit but still be eligible for $3,750Chevy bolt starts at t $26,500“The great news here is that based on Q1 sales volumes, more than 90 percent of vehicles that were eligible for the credit before April 18th are still eligible, with the vast majority eligible for the full credit,” Albert Gore, executive director of the Zero Emissions Transportation Association.New research indicates that a retail culture that allows employees to bend rules for customers can overall enhance customer loyalty as well as making the employee be more engaged overall. In the Harvard Business Review, the study's authors, the study's authors, Irene Kim of the University of British Columbia; and Yujie Zhan at Wilfrid Laurier University stated:RE customers: “Customers clearly recognize when employees take risks to be helpful, and research shows that pro-customer rule breaking has desirable customer outcomes,”Re employees: “These employees were less emotionally exhausted, more satisfied with their job, and were more likely to share with their organizations their concerns, ideas, and suggestions to improve existing rules and practices for customer service.”It was also noted that any ‘violations' were relatively minor and that high manager engagement with particularly entitled employees was necessary to success In another shot to traditional banking, Apple is diving into the savings game with its new Apple Card savings account that has an impressive 4.15% APY. Its managed right in the wallet app and integrates seamlessly with the Apple Card's Daily Cash rewardsThe program is backed by Goldman Sachs and debuted as #11 on Bankrate.com's best savings account listSetting up an account takes less than a minuteGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

Show #1469 Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily, you trusted source of EV information. It's Monday 16th May,  it's Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.  NIO REACHES 500 TOTAL DELIVERIES IN NORWAY - The Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker opened its first local NIO Service Center in Norway on May 12 and delivered its 500th vehicle in the country at the opening ceremony, according to information shared Friday on the Norwegian version of the NIO app. - NIO announced its official entry into Norway, the company's first stop overseas, on May 6 of last year. Its first model offered in Norway is the ES8 SUV, and its flagship sedan, the ET7, is also expected to be available in the country this year. Original Source : https://cnevpost.com/2022/05/16/nio-reaches-500-total-deliveries-in-norway/ TESLA CHALLENGER NIO INC. DELIVERS ITS 200,000 ELECTRIC VEHICLE - Electric vehicle startup NIO Inc, which has emerged as one of China's promising new electric vehicle startups, has reached deliveries of 200,000 electric vehicles in the world's biggest auto market. - Reaching deliveries of 200,000 vehicles is a significant milestone for NIO after launching its first vehicle, the ES8 SUV, in 2018. As a result, NIO is becoming a serious competitor to Tesla in China. - NIO is also planning to launch its sixth battery-powered model soon named the ES7, which is an SUV that will compete with Tesla's Model Y and BMW's X5L SUV that's sold in the China market - NIO's vehicles are uniquely designed, as the batteries can be removed at one of the automaker's battery swap stations called "NIO Power". The entire swap process takes about 10 minutes. It offers a faster alternative of plugging in and waiting for the battery to charge, but also helps address the current lack of convenient EV charging infrastructure across China. - By the end of the year, the company said its will have in total over 1,300 Power Swap stations, 6,000 Power Chargers and 10,000 destination chargers online across China, including along China's famed Silk Road that links the eastern and western regions of China. - Under the BaaS model, if a customer decides to purchase a NIO electric vehicle and subscribe to use the 70kWh battery pack under the BaaS model, the purchase price drops by 70,000 yuan ($10,450). Customers then pay a monthly fee of 980 yuan ($146) for the battery pack itself. - NIO ET7 customers will also be offered a subscription service for NIO Autonomous Driving (NAD), the company's autonomous driving feature that's similar to Tesla's Autopilot. Original Source : https://www.futurecar.com/5405/Tesla-Challenger-NIO-Inc--Delivers-its-200000-Electric-Vehicle-a-Significant-Milestone LAMBORGHINI CONFIRMS ELECTRIC URUS IS COMING - Drive recently had the chance to sit down with Lamborghini design boss Mitja Borkert and talk about many different topics. Among them was a question about a potential zero-emissions variant of the super-SUV, to which Borkert initially confirmed the EV but then walked back a little. - “Sooner or later the Urus will be going electric… to be honest, the regulations in the world and also the social acceptance – the trend is going in this way for sure," the designer told the Australian publication. “I'm not saying right now that the Urus successor is going electric, but for these kinds of cars electrification makes more sense.” - As far as the rest of Lamborghini's lineup is concerned, Borkert confirmed the company will offer combustion power for as long as it is possible from a legal standpoint. The switch to electric powertrains, however, is inevitable. Original Source : https://uk.motor1.com/news/585827/lamborghini-urus-electric-version-rumours/ TESLA STOPS TAKING CYBERTRUCK ORDERS FROM EUROPE AND CHINA - Tesla will no longer be accepting orders for the Cybertruck from Europe or China, as demand for the vehicle far exceeds production for the foreseeable future. - According to Electrek, in May 2021 the Cybertruck forum released a crowdsourced reservation tally that showed over one million reservations for the electric pickup, and at the time of writing that number is reportedly close to 1.5 million, though this isn't something that Tesla has confirmed. - The Cybertruck will be built at Tesla's new Gigafactory in Austin, Texas, and reservations will continue to be open for North American buyers. Original Source : https://www.carscoops.com/2022/05/tesla-cybertruck-reservations-top-1-4-million-orders-from-europe-and-china-halted/ RIVIAN CHARGERS UNDER CONSTRUCTION IN MARYLAND - Rivian has begun construction of six DC fast chargers at a shopping center near Interstate 95 in Harford County - According to documents submitted to Harford County officials, an additional three spots will be prepared for future expansion for an eventual total of nine DCFC spots. - The Riverside Shopping Center where Rivian is building the chargers has a ShopRite grocery store (open 6:00 AM – 10:00 PM), McDonald's and Waffle House (both open 24 hours), plus a Walgreens, Subway, Riverside Pizzeria and Crab Du Jour restaurant. - Rivian plans to build more than 3,500 CCS fast chargers at over 600 sites in the U.S. and Canada by the end of 2023. These DC fast chargers will be part of the Rivian Adventure Network. - the text of a lease agreement between Rivian and the town of Salida, CO suggests that Rivian reserves the option to open some or all of the fast charger spaces to other electric vehicles.
