GM Sells Hummer for $150 Million To China’s Sichuan Tengzhong

Friday, October 9th, 2009

In an honest attempt to streamline its business, General Motors has agreed to terms with China’s Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery for its Hummer brand.  The deal is reportedly worth $150 million giving an 80% stake to the Chinese company and 20% to a private investor.  The main question that many are asking is if the H2 SUT, H2 SUV, H3 SUV and H3T will continue to be manufactured in the U.S. or if the new owners will move operations to its motherland.  If we were to guess, it’d be the latter.  The lower labor rates would help to reduce the costs of manufacturing the world’s single most complex consumer product.

With the demise of Pontiac and Saturn, and the subsequent sale of Hummer, GM’s new fit & trim makeover will help it to compete with the world’s automakers.  Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick and GMC are the only brands which remain.

0% APR available on 2009 GMC Acadia

2009 GMC Acadia

For 2009, GMC is offering up two SUV models: the Envoy and the Yukon.  Back in 1990, Ford released a vehicle that would offer car-buyers a unique option in the marketplace: the Explorer. The launch of the Explorer re-invigorated the consumer’s passion to have it all: the towing capacity of a pickup truck, the passenger space of a minivan, and a presumably safer mode of transport. The newly coined SUV would enjoy major success for a the better half of a decade, but increasing gas prices coupled with more stringent EPA mandates have left many consumers asking themselves if they really need one, especially since few owners took their SUVs off-road.

Enter the Acadia, GMC’s Crossover Utility Vehicle (CUV). A CUV has the look of an SUV with the feel of a sedan, offering better fuel economy, a lower price, and a softer more comfortable ride. The Acadia comes standard with the same 3.6L 275-hp V6 found in the more luxurious Buick Enclave, while also sharing the same platform. GMC is hoping its CUV kicks off the trend Ford started back in 1990.

And with a cost to entry of $29,990 (base), you’d be hard-pressed to find something that can do more with less than the GMC Acadia. And now the best part: get 0% APR for up to 60 months or big cash back on the 2009 GMC Acadia. To see how much you can save, click to GMC Acadia pricing and for the 0% APR offer, click here.

2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK350 Pricing

2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK350

There’s no denying that as we reevaluate our needs, we are discovering ways to do more with less. The example can be illustrated remarkably with the all-new 2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK350. Its compact body and short overhangs allows it to fit in some of the tightest parking spots, while its spacious rear hatch allows for an ability to carry cavernous amounts of cargo. This combination of a downsized frame and maximized interior volume could prove to be a winning formula in tough economic times.

2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK350

Based on the new C-Class chassis, the GLK350 is every bit as nimble, but with twice the utility, as the highly acclaimed sport sedan. With a 269-horsepower 3.5-liter V6, 7-speed automatic transmission and optional 4Matic all-wheel drive, the GLK350 is highly capable and performs exceptionally on any road surface. What’s also impressive about the GLK350 is its fuel mileage. Getting 16/22 mpg (city/highway), the GLK350 is perfectly suited for any commute.

2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK350

We weren’t kidding when we mentioned that this car had cargo space. A total of 54.7 cubic feet, with the seats folded down. On top of its remarkably spacious cargo area, the GLK boasts one of the finest interiors we’ve seen in an entry level vehicle from Mercedes-Benz in quite some time. Although there are bigger SUV’s out there, none have the same level of practicality as the GLK.
