FUTURE
Debuting at the New York auto show next month, Toyota has announced that there will be a hybrid added to the RAV4 lineup for the 2016 model year. In a segment utterly devoid of hybrids - Ford once sold a high-profile Escape Hybrid, however - the RAV4 will have the market cornered.

Hyundai wants to see its U.S. sales increase by 4.7% this year, according to Reuters. That would require Hyundai to sell a record-high 759,827 new vehicles. Through two months of 2015, Hyundai sales were up 4.3% compared with the first two months of 2014. Hyundai sales increased 0.7% in 2014 and 2.5% the year before in markets which expanded at a much faster clip.
