By October, summer is properly over. School is back, work has picked up, and the calendar is full of after-school activities, commutes and weekends that fill up before you’ve had a chance to plan them. The weather has turned too. Mornings are darker, it rains more, there are leaves on the road, and in some

Some cars are built for short journeys. Others seem to come into their own once the road opens up. American vehicles have long been associated with distance, and for good reason. Whether it is a full-size SUV, a pickup or a grand touring performance car, many are designed around long journeys, generous space and the

For US-built trucks such as the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, seasonal maintenance is essential to protect capability, comfort and long-term value. Here is

By the time a North American vehicle reaches a European dealer, most of the critical work has already happened behind the scenes; across engineering, software, testing, documentation and regulatory coordination. In 2026, that work is more complex, more continuous and more interconnected than ever before. Recently, AEC

Long before it reaches a showroom or forecourt, each vehicle passes through a carefully managed process involving logistics, compliance, technical preparation, and coordination across multiple partners.

What Germany’s acceptance of Belgium’s digital customs workflow means for the future of vehicle imports in Europe Cross-border vehicle imports in Europe have traditionally relied on paper documentation, regional variations, and a mix of legacy procedures that don’t always keep pace with how fast the industry is moving.
