2 new things from GM so soon!
GM executives are confident that they'll reap more than $1,000 in extra per-vehicle profit from the 2016 Malibu when it goes on sale this fall, simply by offering head-turning features and options rather than fire-sale prices. They expect the same from the redesigned Cruze, scheduled for an unveiling here this week.
But those cars will arrive in a market that is squeezing car margins, not expanding them. Industry incentives on both midsize and compact cars last month hit their highest levels in more than five years, as automakers try to keep customers interested amid a shift toward crossovers. And more cars have been making the profit-sapping journey to rental-car lots in recent months.

Cruze hatch? We have these don’t we?
The Cruze hatch also will take on the Ford Focus, which derives about 40 percent of its sales from the five-door model. Other hatches include the Hyundai Elantra GT and Volkswagen Golf.
IHS Automotive expects hatchbacks to grow to 7.8 percent of U.S. light-vehicle sales by 2020, up from an estimated 5.3 percent this year.
The Dodge Caravan lives for now but even US market is slack!
The death of the current-generation Dodge Grand Caravan may have been greatly exaggerated.
Fiat Chrysler plans to continue production of the current Dodge people hauler at least into the 2017 model year, according to an internal company document. It will be built alongside a redesigned version of the Chrysler Town & Country minivan beginning early next year.
The Grand Caravan had been set to end production in 2016.
The planning document indicates that the next-generation Town & Country is scheduled to start production on Feb. 29, 2016, at FCA's recently overhauled Windsor, Ontario, assembly plant.
That minivan, with the two-letter code RU, will be a 2017 model. The 2016 Town & Country will be produced during a short run beginning in early August and ending in mid-February.
