These claims are deceiving Toyota Prius owners into thinking they are helping their car when really they are hurting it.
The 2020 C8 Corvette is all the rage right now but let's not forget about the huge performer that is the C7 Corvette, especially since GM is offering a large discount opportunity with it. Here's how you can save almost 10k off of the 7th generation Corvette.
Overall across the globe, EV sales are up, and the future looks bright. But in the U.S. recent changes in national fuel economy and smog requirements have caused EV sales to drop here.

Toyota Prius oil consumption issues are a hot topic. Like hotter than black leather seats on a summer day. I recently was put in touch with a company called BG Products who has claimed their "hybrid" repair kit will solve these issues.
