[$$] PG&E’s Bankruptcy Shows Blindspots in Green Investing
The bankruptcy filing by PG&E Corp. is the latest stumble by a company rated highly by environmentally focused investors, further exposing a weakness in a scoring system meant to measure risk for shareholders. What the ratings couldn’t predict is that the stock would lose nearly 70% of its market value since early November, as investors worried about potential liabilities for the role PG&E’s equipment may have played in multiple wildfires. The Global Sustainable Investment Alliance, an industry group, estimated that between 2014 and 2016, assets invested with ESG and other sustainable-investing goals in mind rose 25% to $22.89 trillion.

Ford executive raises doubts about VW deal for electric vehicles
"Ford's bet is on commercial vehicles and performance vehicles," a top Ford executive says. VW has committed more than $50 billion to develop more than 50 pure battery-electric vehicles by 2025.

VW's EV Dune Buggy concept could preview a new world of fun coachbuilt cars
On the face of it, the heritage-laced dune buggy concept Volkswagen will introduce at the 2019 Geneva Auto Show is merely a one-off model, generating buzz and demonstrating the flexibility of the firm's brand-new MEB electric car platform. Instead, teaser sketches suggest stylists channeled the spirit of classic, Beetle-based dune buggies without aping their looks. The MEB platform is similar in concept but a different in execution.

Prosecutors in the German city of Stuttgart are looking into a possible fine for auto supplier Robert Bosch for providing Volkswagen with engine management software that the carmaker used to cheat vehicle emissions tests in 2015. Volkswagen has paid out more than 27 billion euros (24 billion pounds) in penalties for using illegal software to disguise excessive levels of pollution from its diesel cars, triggering a global regulatory clampdown that has now reached Bosch. "It is correct that the Public Prosecutor's Office of Stuttgart has opened monetary fine proceedings against Robert Bosch GmbH," a spokesman for the company said in a statement on Friday.

VW Jetta GLI takes all the right cues from the GTI and Golf R
Since last April, when we drove the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta for the first time, we've been anticipating the 2019 Jetta GLI. The standard transmission is a six-speed manual, and the options sheet offers a seven-speed dual-clutch that adds start/stop. The ride is transmitted through exclusive 18-inch wheels and should be leagues beyond the standard Jetta, thanks to the multi-link rear suspension.

Senators Try to Limit Trump’s Tariff Power While He Seeks More
Trump, who has proclaimed himself “Tariff Man,” has imposed new duties on more than $300 billion in U.S. imports over the past year and threatened more to come on cars, parts and Chinese goods if negotiations now underway don’t result in a deal before March 1.

The Japanese automaker still makes a lot of money in America, but its profit margins are shrinking, prompting Toyota to double down on a far riskier market: China. Third-quarter earnings from the car giant’s North America business slumped 45 percent as consumer preferences shift away from sedans such as the Camry toward pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles. Toyota has concentrated on the U.S., which accounts for about a third of global sales, even after China overtook it to become the world’s largest car market in 2009.

If Volkswagen realizes its ambition of becoming the global leader in electric cars, it will be thanks to a radical and risky bet born out of the biggest calamity in its history. The German giant has staked its future, to the tune of 80 billion euros ($91 billion), on being able to profitably mass-produce electric vehicles - a feat no carmaker has come close to achieving.

Volkswagen Jetta GLI comes into focus
Volkswagen is set to show the Jetta GLI at the 2019 Chicago Auto Show later this week, but is a debut even a debut without a teaser? Just days before the full unveil, VW dropped a small GIF of the front of the GLI going in and out of focus on its Twitter.
