INSIDE THE AUTO BUSINESS
The EPA has revised fuel economy testing procedures to enable automakers to more accurately calculate fuel economy ratings.

DEEPER INSIDE THE AUTO BUSINESS
After a period of reputation damaging incidents, Honda is shaking things up by replacing their Chief Executive Officer with a well-rounded engineer who has been with Honda since the year I was born. Reuters notes that “Hachigo’s appointment marks the first time Honda has named as CEO a non-director and someone who has not headed the firm’s R&D company.” Will this change inspire renewed confidence in Honda?
RECALL
Status unchanged. Nothing since yesterday’s notice from Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz recalls of 209,017 vehicles.
