After three years of researchand development GM is introduc-ing a nine-speed automatic trans-mission to the public.Chevrolet’s first nine-speed au-

tomatic transmission makes its

debut in the 2017 Malibu and willbe available in the 2017 CruzeDiesel and 2018 Equinox, said GMspokesman Tom Read. This tran-mission advances a legacy ofmultispeed transmissions de-

signed to optimize efficiency,performance and refinement.The new, General Motors-de-

veloped Hydra-Matic 9T50 nine-speed is paired with the available2.0L Turbo engine in the Malibu,

contributing to an EPA-estimated33 mpg highway – a 3 percent in-crease over the 2016 model withthe eight-speed automatic.“In addition to improved fuel

efficiency, the 9T50 offers a

strong overall balance of per-formance and refinement thatcustomers will feel at all drivingspeeds,” said Dan Nicholson,

If you’re going to design some-thing with plenty of style that’srelated to auto industry, why nothave former GM chief designerEd Welburn do the work.That’s exactly what the Auto-

motive Press Association (APA)did when the organization decid-ed to create a trophy to honorthe top vehicle winners at theNorth American InternationalAuto Show.The Welburn-designed trophies

were unveiled when the APA an-nounced the finalists for the 2017North American Car and Truckand Utility Vehicle of the Year(NACTOY) were named at the De-troit Athletic Club on Dec. 6.

Detroit Free Press auto writerMark Phelan spoke on behalf ofthe APA. He said the idea for theWelburn-designed trophies came

up after he heard a story abouthow Welburn was known to com-plain about the look of the tro-phies GM picked up for the itsdesigns. He said beautiful carsdeserved beautiful trophies.That got the people at the APA

thinking, Phelan said, that maybenow that Welburn has some freetime since his retirement, hemight want to take a stab at de-signing the NACTOY trophies.“What could be better than to

have our new trophy created byone of the auto industry’s great-est designers,” said Phelan. “Theboard, jury members and spon-sors are thrilled to present thiswork of art to the year’s best ve-hicles, and there’s no doubt thewinning automakers will displayit with pride.

The auto industry has alwaysbeen an exciting place to work,and that’s never been more truethan in the past few years.At least that’s what Scott Gal-

lett, vice president of Marketing,Public Relations and Govern-ment Affairs at BorgWarner be-lieves.“I’ve been in the auto industry

for 25 years,” Gallett said. “I’vealways seen it as exciting, andBorgWarner has always beenrock solid company that’s beenexciting to work for. The auto in-dustry is a fun, global industrythat is competitive and hightech. It’s also a major componentof the U.S. and world economiesand plays a huge role in the envi-ronment.”And, Gallett said, while change

has always been a part of the in-dustry, the pace of change isgrowing faster all the time.“The world used to talk about

improvement of vehicles at thecomponent level,” Gallett said.“That still goes on, but what’s nottalked about all that often isabout how change in the industryis going up another level. Now it’sabout how a vehicle can get frompoint A to point B in the best way,whether it’s by autonomous tech-nology or ride sharing. That’s thenew mindset.”

BorgWarner still looks at howto improve components becausevehicles still need to get frompoint A to point B in a physicalway, Gallett said. But now mod-ern vehicles need new propul-sion systems that address issuesof efficiency, CO2 emissions, andimproved rides.“No one wants to be left be-

hind,” Gallett said, “in the com-petition to get the consumer’s at-tention.”That competition by OEMs for

new technologies and propulsionsystems that didn’t exist even adecade ago and has opened upall kinds of opportunities for TierI suppliers like BorgWarner, Gal-lett said.The company has spent a

great deal of time and money ob-taining and developing the newtechnologies that are driving theindustry, Gallett said. For exam-ple, about a year ago BorgWarneracquired the company Remy, aglobal producer of rotating elec-trical components. Remy pro-duces key autmotive technolo-gies and has operations in tencountries on five different conti-nents.Gallett said by acquiring Re-

my, BorgWarner was able tocombine that company’s expert-ise on electrical componentswith BorgWarner’s expertise inmechanical parts to create the

new Integrated Electric DriveModule (eDM).The eDM, Gallett said, comes

in one compact, easy-to-installpackage that uses BorgWarner’sstate-of-the-art electric drive mo-tor technology and proveneGearDrive transmission. It fea-tures patented high voltage hair-pin (HVH) technology that deliv-ers superior performance withover 95 percent efficiency.The eGearDrive transmission

part of the module offers a highlyefficient gear train and compact,low-weight design with over 97percent efficiency, Gallett said.As a result, for battery-powered

vice president, Global PropulsionSystems. “By the end of 2017,Chevrolet will offer four modelswith the new nine-speed.”The new nine-speed has a

wider 7.6:1 overall ratio – the dif-ference between the first gear ra-tio and the top gear ratio – com-pared to the eight-speed trans-mission, with a “deep” 4.69 firstgear that supports excellent off-the-line acceleration and a “tall”0.62 top gear for low-rpm high-way cruising. That balance opti-mizes acceleration and fuel econ-omy and reduces engine noiseduring cruising.“The smaller steps between

the gears, compared to the eight-speed, enable smooth, almostimperceptible upshifts, for excel-lent refinement,” said Nicholson.“No matter the engine torque orvehicle speed, the 9T50 is alwaysin the perfect gear.”The new transmission also

supports stop/start technologythat can help save fuel by allow-ing the engine to shut down incertain stop-and-go driving con-ditions.“Everything about the new

nine-speed is designed to maxi-mize benefits for the customer,”said Steve Majoros, director ofChevrolet Marketing. “It helps of-fer greater fuel efficiency in thecity and on the highway, all withthe world-class refinement thatmakes the drive quiet andsmooth.”GM will deploy the new nine-

speed automatic transmission asan option on 10 vehicle modelsby the end of 2017.Developed for the tight pack-

aging requirements of transversepropulsion systems, the new9T50 nine-speed automatic hasan on-axis design, where all thegears are in line with the crank-shaft, and GM’s first application

of a selectable one-way clutch,Read said. Both features help re-duce the package size, making itroughly the same size as a six-speed transmission.The selectable one-way clutch,

which can hold torque or free-wheel, depending on the desiredoperating mode, contributes to asmaller overall size by eliminat-ing the need for an additionalclutch pack.“The selectable one-way clutch

is one of the biggest enablers ofthe 9T50’s balance of efficiencyand refinement,” said Steve Saia,chief engineer. “It also symbol-izes GM’s acumen when it comesto designing advanced, compactmultispeed transmissions.”For precise and smooth shifts,

a specific strategy is used in theselection of the gearsets, clutch-es and torque converter. Fiveplanetary gearsets are used withfour stationary clutches andthree rotating clutches, savingspace compared to freewheelingdesigns. Gears change from sec-ond- to ninth-gear ratios withprecise clutch-to-clutch shifting,where the clutch is engaged inone gear at exactly the same timeit is released from another.The first-to-second upshift is a

freewheeling shift, Read said.The second-gear clutch engageswhile the first-gear one-wayclutch spins freely, contributingto greater refinement at lower ve-hicle speeds.Additionally, this planetary-

type automatic transmission em-ploys new torque converter tech-nology to help it deliver smoothtake-off performance and addi-tional refinement. The converterfeatures a hyper-elliptical ovalcross-section that reduces thethickness of the torque convert-er, keeping the overall width ofthe engine and transmission asnarrow as possible for packagingadvantages.

The single-plate lock-up clutchuses GM’s electronically con-trolled capacity clutch (ECCC)technology to dampen engine vi-brations and ensure smooth op-eration, Read said.Shift controls include automat-

ic grade braking that selects alower gear to help maintain de-sired vehicle speed when coast-ing or braking on a downgrade.This takes advantage of enginebraking to help prevent unwant-ed acceleration and can help re-duce the need to brake during adescent. The control module re-ceives input that monitors brakepedal usage, vehicle accelera-tion, throttle position, grade andwhether a trailer is connected tothe vehicle.The 9T50’s hydraulic system is

controlled electronically to deliv-er the pressure and volume re-quired for various operating tem-peratures for optimal efficiency.The valve body side cover actsas an internal expansion tank,holding the excess oil until it isrequired and then returning it tothe sump when needed.

The 9T50 uses DEXRON-VI flu-id that does not require changingunder normal driving conditions.It was developed for a more con-sistent viscosity profile, consis-tent shift performance in ex-treme conditions and less degra-dation over time.A unique accumulator within

the new nine-speed transmissionenables virtually seamlessstop/start transitions for greaterrefinement, Read said. The accu-mulator stores energy for almostimperceptible engine restarts,while GM-designed transmissionsoftware calibrated for thoserestarts further contributes tosmooth takeoffs.GM-developed transmission

control logic resides in a 32-bittransmission control module(TCM). This module commandsall shifting events to providesmooth and precise ratiochanges. The TCM also monitorstransmission performance andcompensates for normal wear incomponents such as clutchplates so that performance re-mains consistent.

GM’s new nine-speed transmission is the result of years of research.

electric and P4-type hybrid vehi-cles, the combination deliversmore miles from every charge.Features and benefits of the

eDM include:• Industry-leading power and

torque densities.• Integrated, compact design.• Internal permanent magnet

rotor.• Highly efficient performance

extends electric driving range.• Optional ePark lock system.Another new BorgWarner tech

component is the 48-volt eBoost-er Electrically Driven Compres-sor for combustion and hybridvehicles, Gallett said.Turbochargers help small en-

gines deliver the torque andpower of larger engines, Gallettsaid. But it takes time to build upboost pressure, causing a shortdelay known as turbo lag.For nearly instant power and

torque at the push of the pedal,BorgWarner’s eBooster electri-cally driven compressor deliversboost on demand until the tur-bocharger takes over. That’ssmall-engine fuel economy withbig-engine boost.Features of the eBoost in-

clude:• Improved performance for

hybrid and combustion vehicles.• Downsizing for up to 35 per-

cent better fuel economy.• Integrated power electron-

ics.• Faster response with no per-

ceptible turbo lag.• Extended boosting over a

larger engine speed range.• More low-end torque.• Allows larger turbocharger

use for more top-end power.While many people know

BorgWarner is a leader in power-train technology and develop-ment, the company is now ableto provide complete propulsionsystems for EVs and hybrid vehi-cles, Gallett said.“We feel we’re leading the

way,” Gallett said. “We’ve alwaysbeen a leader in parts develop-ment for efficient internal com-bustion engines and multiplespeed transmissions, but asmore EVs and hybrids enter themarketplace we will lead the wayin developing technology forthose vehicles as well.”Gallett said one thing he’s no-

ticed over the past few years isthat innovation can now comefrom anywhere.“In the past, certain compa-

nies came up with new innova-tions and then everyone fol-lowed their lead,” Gallett said.“People are now used to seeingnew phone technology every sixmonths. Now they want cars tobe the same way and as a resultyou don’t know who will comeup with something new first. Thegreat thing about this industry isthat people are so talented. It’snot just the engineers, it’s thedesigners, the marketing people.There’s so much expertise outthere that’s being put to use toinnovate. That’s what I loveabout the auto industry.”

Being a leader in the market-place often means doing thingsthat the competition isn’t doing.

“It’s absolutely true that Dodgeis a leader in the muscle car mar-ket. The Challenger GT com-pletes the Dodge lineup of all-wheel-drive muscle cars, givingmore options to people whowant a muscle car and the abilityto drive it all year-round, in vari-ous weather conditions,” said Fi-at Chrysler spokeswoman ClaireCarroll.

The new 2017 Dodge Chal-lenger GT all-wheel drive (AWD)delivers the performance, powerand all-weather capability tocarve through some of the worstweather Mother Nature can dishout, Carroll said.

“Dodge is shifting the musclecar paradigm with the new 2017Dodge Challenger GT – theworld’s first and only all-wheel-drive American muscle coupe,”said Tim Kuniskis, head of Pas-senger Cars – Dodge, SRT,Chrysler and Fiat, FCA – NorthAmerica. “The Challenger has al-ways been the most wide-rangingand functional muscle coupe,and now, with the new 305-horse-power all-wheel-drive ChallengerGT, we are stretching the func-tional and geographic bound-aries even further.”

The new 2017 Dodge Chal-lenger GT AWD model has a start-ing U.S Manufacturer’s SuggestedRetail Price (MSRP) of $33,395(excluding $1,095 destinationcharge).

With production beginning in

January, the all-wheel-driveDodge Challenger GT is sched-uled to arrive at Dodge dealer-ships nationwide in the firstquarter of 2017, Carroll said.

The 2017 Dodge Challenger GTAWD features Dodge’s award-win-ning 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine,delivering 305 horsepower at6,350 rpm and a responsive 268lb.-ft. of torque at 4,800 rpm.

A tuned induction system anddual exhaust from the manifoldsback to the tips help delivermore than 90 percent of the en-gine’s peak torque from 1,800 to6,400 rpm – all for great drivabili-ty and responsiveness, Carrollsaid. With the standard Torque-Flite eight-speed automatic trans-mission, Challenger GT offers upto an EPA-estimated 18 city/27hwy miles per gallon (mpg).

The Dodge Challenger GT fea-tures Dodge’s high-performanceall-wheel-drive system. Alsofound in the Charger AWD, thistechnologically advanced systemincludes an active transfer caseand front-axle disconnect for ex-cellent all-season performanceand fuel economy.

The Challenger GT transitionsbetween rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive with no driver inter-vention, Carroll said.

Under normal driving condi-tions, the front axle is disen-gaged and 100 percent of the en-gine’s torque is directed to therear wheels.

This preserves the outstand-ing fun-to-drive performance andhandling characteristics inherentto rear-wheel-drive vehicles, Car-roll said.

Since launching the first mini-van in 1983, the Windsor planthas built 10 million of the morethan 14.3 million vehicles thathave been sold to date, Tinsonsaid.

While the 2017 Chrysler Pacifi-ca reinvented the minivan seg-ment, the Pacifica Hybrid buildson its functionality, versatility,technology and bold styling withthe addition of electrificationtechnology, making it the mostfuel-efficient minivan ever forhauling people and cargo, Har-low said.

The hybrid version of thesixth-generation family haulerwill deliver a U.S. EnvironmentalProtection Agency (EPA) ap-proved range of 33 miles solelyon zero-emissions electric powerfrom a 16-kWh lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery, Harlow said. The

Pacifica Hybrid also earned a fu-el-economy rating of 84 miles-per-gallon-equivalent (MPGe)from the EPA, reflecting the vehi-cle’s combined city- and high-way-cycle performance in elec-tric-mode only, as tested.

“Minivan drivers travel an av-erage of around 30 miles eachday, meaning that most PacificaHybrid owners will be able tocomplete their daily activitiessolely on electric power,” saidTim Kuniskis, head of PassengerCar Brands, Dodge, SRT, Chryslerand Fiat, FCA - North America.“For those longer weekend trips,the 33-mile all-electric rangecombined with a full tank of fuelwill deliver an expected totalrange of 566 miles, alleviating thepotential of any range anxiety.”

The battery pack – packagedunder the second-row floor in aunique battery case to retainmaximum interior volume forboth passengers and cargo –may be fully recharged in as littleas two hours using a 240-voltplug-in system, Harlow said.

Fiat Chrysler invested $2.6 bil-lion USD to develop the Pacifica,including its hybrid counterpart,with $744 million USD (over $1billion CAD*) allocated to theplant to add floor space, retooland upgrade equipment, Tinsonsaid. The Pacifica Hybrid pricingstarts at $34,495 with availableU.S. federal tax credit, not includ-ing state and local incentives.

at Pixar, we do our best to createworlds and characters that ringtrue to our audiences,” said“Cars 3” director Brian Fee.“A huge part of doing this suc-

cessfully lies in the extensive re-search that we do on each film.‘Cars 3’ is a love letter to racingand its roots, so we could not bemore excited to be a part of theNorth American InternationalAuto Show to share a little bit ofour film with our fellow car en-thusiasts.”Pixar’s press conference will

awards are our industry’s mostprestigious and highly desired.This new trophy gracefully em-bodies the style that has won au-tomotive design a special placein the world of art.”The North American Car,

“Let me tell you about the tro-phies I designed,” Welburn said.“I wanted to create ones that liveup to the prestige that comeswith this award. I want to theaward to be an inspiration to thewinners and to the excellent en-gineers and designers in the in-dustry.”Welburn said that the design

he ultimately settled on wasmeant to be timeless. And it wasmeant to evoke the auto indus-try as a whole and not one par-ticular brand.“Today’s North American auto

industry is alive,” Welburn said.“There are so many trends andgreat designs out there. A greatvehicle can come from any-where. I am proud to have a partin the award that will be givenout for years to come.”Phelan said that there were

A good idea about auto safetytechnology has just becomeavailable on a wider range of GMvehicles.Rear Seat Reminder, an indus-

try-first feature designed to re-mind drivers to check the backseat as they exit their vehiclesunder certain circumstances, willbe offered across many Buick,Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC ve-hicles by the 2018 model year,said GM spokeswoman RebeccaWhite.The system monitors rear

door usage to remind drivers tocheck their rear seats beforewalking away from their vehicles.“GM’s Rear Seat Reminder fea-

ture is an initial step to use tech-nology to help remind drivers tocheck the rear seat before exitingthe vehicle under certain condi-tions,” said Jeff Boyer, vice presi-dent of GM Global Vehicle Safety.“We want to help everyone totake one simple, extra step.That’s why Chevrolet, Buick,GMC and Cadillac will offer theRear Seat Reminder on a broadrange of vehicles, from small carsto full-size SUVs and everythingin between.”Thirty-nine children died from

heatstroke this year as result ofbeing left in vehicles or gainingaccess to an unattended vehicle,a 60 percent increase over lastyear’s figure, Boyer said.Rear Seat Reminder debuted

earlier this year on the new 2017GMC Acadia. Models to offer thefeature include those listed be-low as well as some 2018 vehi-cles models that will be an-nounced at a later date:• 2017 Buick Lacrosse.• 2017 Cadillac Escalade• and Escalade ESV.• 2017 Cadillac CT6.• 2017 Chevrolet Cruze• and Cruze Hatchback.• 2017 Chevrolet Malibu.• 2017 Chevrolet Tahoe.

• 2017 Chevrolet Suburban.• 2017 Chevrolet Silverado.• 2017 Chevrolet Colorado.• 2017 GMC Yukon.• 2017 GMC Yukon XL.• 2017 GMC Sierra.• 2017 GMC Canyon.• 2018 Cadillac XT5.• 2018 Cadillac CTS, CTS-V.• 2018 Cadillac ATS.• 2018 Chevrolet Equinox.The Rear Seat Reminder works

by monitoring the vehicle’s reardoors. The feature is intended toactivate when either rear door isopened and closed up to 10 min-utes before the vehicle is startedor while the vehicle is running.Once the system is activated, thevehicle is designed to sound fivechimes and display a message inthe driver information center

that reads “Rear Seat Reminder /Look in Rear Seat” the next timethe vehicle is turned off.“This new technology devel-

oped by General Motors will givebusy parents and caregivers theimportant reminder to alwayscheck the back seat,” said KateCarr, president and CEO of SafeKids Worldwide. “The safest wayto protect a child from heat-stroke is to never leave a childunattended in a vehicle, and fea-tures like Rear Seat Reminder,coupled with continued publiceducation, can help combat thispreventable tragedy.”The feature cannot actually de-

tect items in the back seat, so itis always important to check therear seat prior to exiting the vehi-cle, White said.

Safety for drivers, passengersand pedestrians is something im-portant for all automobile manu-facturers and making vehiclessafer is something that extendsbeyond competition between ri-vals.Which is why Fiat Chrysler

hosted the “Vehicle Safety Train-ing Best Practices Workshop” onDec. 6 at the Walter P. ChryslerMuseum in Auburn Hills, said Fi-at Chrysler spokesman Berj Alex-anian.This meeting manufacturers

provided an opportunity for 12major global automakers, includ-ing Fiat Chrsyler, to discuss,learn about and share currentapproaches for improving vehi-cle safety training.The workshop focused on in-

depth best practice sharing onstrategy and approach for vehi-cle safety training.The participating manufactur-

eres were BMW of North Ameri-ca, Fiat Chrysler, Ford Motor Co.,General Motors, Honda NorthAmerica, Hyundai Motor Ameri-ca, Jaguar Land Rover NA,Maserati USA, Mercedes-BenzUSA, Toyota Motor North Ameri-ca, Volkswagen Group of Americaand Volvo Car USA, AlexaniansaidTopics of discussion included

audience identification, learningmanagement system approach,testing, tracking, communicationand more, Alexanian said.“The vehicle safety training

best practices workshop contin-ues the spirit of collaboration weas an industry are creating to-gether,” said Kristen Kreibich,safety advocate, Fiat Chrysler.“Improving vehicle safety train-ing is an important part of em-powering our industry to ad-dress areas of customer safety

and vehicle safety recall cam-paigns.”Fiat Chrysler also engaged

company subject matter experts,legal counsel and external indus-try experts to develop a U.S.Safety Act Web-based TrainingModule, which was shared withworkshop attendees.Alexanian said that after the

workshop, the participating automanufacturers returned home totheir home bases.“The next step is to apply what

they learned at the workshop totheir development processes,”Alexanian said. “Using best prac-tices to make the safest cars pos-sible is the whole point of theworkshop. Car companies learnfrom each other, and that’s agood thing.”In addition to this workshop,

Fiat Chrysler recently hosted the“First Automotive Safety RecallBest Practices Summit” on May24-25, and co-hosted both the“2016 Advancing Safety ThroughData Conference” on Oct. 6, aswell as the “ Second AutomotiveSafety Recall Best Practices Sum-mit” on the Torrance, California,campus of American Honda Mo-tor Co., Inc. on Nov. 17-18.“The topic of safety is very im-

portant to the industry as awhole,” Alexanian said. “It’s im-portant that we communicatehow important safety is to ouremployees and make sure, fromdesign to manufacturing, thatdriver and passenger safety isbuilt in the process from thevery beginning.”Alexanian said that with work-

shops like this, the auto industryis taking a page from the book ofthe aerospace industry. Competi-tors share safety information asa way to make flying safer foreveryone.

Chrysler Convenes IndustryVehicle Safety Seminar

GM is adding its back-seat warning tech to several new models.

The question of what cus-tomers want and how best toserve them is a constantlychanging target.On the leading edge of what is

shaping up to be perhaps themost dynamic time in the trans-portation business, consumersfind themselves at a crossroads,said Ford spokeswoman AnikaSalceda-Wycoco.Change is the only constant, as

the world seems to be in a per-petual state of flux, Salceda-Wycoco said. With truth and ac-countability front and center,most consumers concur it hasnever been more difficult to findaccurate and reliable informa-tion. As such, consumers are re-thinking priorities and changinghow they define prosperity, val-ue material possessions and usetheir time.In the “Looking Further with

Ford 2017” trend report, FordMotor Company draws upon thesocietal shifts taking place be-yond the auto industry to informand drive its business, Salceda-Wycoco said. Insights gleanedfrom technological, economic,environmental and political are-nas allow experts at the compa-ny to explore how trust, relation-ships, technology and innovationcan be leveraged to create mean-ingful vehicles and services thatadd value to consumers.Sheryl Connelly, Ford global

trend and futuring manager, saidthere is no escaping the fact thatdisruption is now the status quo.“What’s fascinating,” Connelly

said, “is how Ford is adaptingand innovating – offering cus-tomers and society at large tangi-ble ways to improve their mobili-ty needs and ultimately, their dai-ly way of life.”As the pace and scale of

change increase in unprecedent-ed ways, consumers are re-assessing their values, attitudes,behaviors and priorities – plac-ing greater accountability onbrands to be transparent andtruthful, and to act in the best in-terest of both individuals and so-ciety overall, Connelly said. Find-ings from the report include:• With a heightened focus on

truth and transparency, roughlytwo-thirds of adults worldwide

say it has never been more diffi-cult to find information that isobjective. As information can becontradictory, consumers areconfronted with a decider’sdilemma – ending up conflictedby the choices they make.• Establishing relationships

built on trust never has beenmore daunting – making trust themost precious of assets.• Consumers increasingly are

holding themselves, and others,accountable for making the rightdecisions for society at large.• Globally, consumers are

finding more joy in less, and tak-ing advantage of access-over-ownership service models.• An abundance of choice in

the marketplace is impacting at-titudes toward commitment.• In an on-demand world, pa-

tience has become less of avirtue; there now are more waysto rationalize how we spend ourtime.This anniversary edition of

Ford’s annual trend report high-lights three past trends that con-tinue to shape behaviors today,while establishing seven up-and-coming trends for the future,Connelly said. These trends are:• Trust Is the New Black

(2013): Where truth was onceheld to be indisputable, it in-creasingly tends to be influencedby perception – and reinforcedby like-minded viewpoints.• The Female Frontier (2014):

Profiles of women have reachednew prominence, with demo-graphic shifts changing house-hold and work dynamics;women and men continue to re-define roles and responsibilities.• Sustainability Blues (2014):

From devastating floods, debili-tating droughts, water contami-nation and disputes, concern forthe world’s most precious re-source continues to grow, withconsumers increasingly mindfulof their water footprint.The report, Connelly said also

rethought these micro trends:• The Good Life 2.0: Bigger is-

n’t always better, and ownershipdoes not equate with happiness.Consumers are finding joy inless, where “good” encompassesnot just possessions, but also ex-periences and values.

The Detroit auto industry asscored high marks with HumanRights Campaign (HRC) Corpo-rate Equality Index (CEI), a na-tional benchmarking survey andreport on corporate policies andpractices related to LGBT equali-ty in the workplace.Some of the companies that

earned the organization’s highestrating are Ford Motor Company,General Motors, Fiat Chryslerand Lear.In its press release issued on

Dec. 5, HRC wrote, “The Corpo-rate Equality Index (CEI),launched in 2002 to assess LGBT-inclusive policies and practicesat Fortune 500 companies, alsohighlights how corporate leadersare increasingly stepping up toplay a leading role in opposinganti-equality legislation -- fromstatehouses to the U.S. Capitol.Through their actions, taken asLGBTQ workers and customershave been facing a record num-ber of anti-LGBTQ bills in statelegislatures across the country,business leaders are building ontheir longstanding commitmentto expanding workplace equalityfor LGBTQ people.“This year, a record-breaking

517 businesses earned the CEI’stop score of 100, up from 407 lastyear. That’s a single-year increaseof more than 25 percent -- thelargest jump in the 15-year histo-ry of the nation’s premiere bench-marking tool for LGBT workplaceequality. Leadership demonstrat-ed by these businesses, includingspeaking out against discrimina-tory laws like North Carolina'sHB2, reflect more than a decadeof work inside these companiesto expand LGBT, and particularlytransgender, workplace equality.”“We truly value diversity and

inclusion at Lear, and I am ex-tremely proud to have receivedthis recognition for our efforts.We aspire to be an employer offirst choice where all employeescan reach their full potential,”said Matt Simoncini, Lear’s presi-dent and chief executive officer.

Ford Motor Company, in astatement to the media, saidthat the company has received aperfect score every year since2004.And the company is proud of

that rating history, said Ford Mo-tor Company spokeswomanMonique Brentley.The 2017 Corporate Equality

Index rated 1,043 businesses onLGBT-related policies and prac-tices such as nondiscriminationworkplace protections, domesticpartner benefits, transgender-in-clusive health care benefits,competency programs and pub-lic engagement with the LGBTcommunity.“Ford is committed to creating

an environment that promotesdiversity and inclusion withinour workforce and communi-ties,” said Meeta Huggins, chiefdiversity officer, Ford MotorCompany.“The diverse backgrounds of

our employees truly make us astronger company and we are ex-tremely proud of our policiesand programs that supportequality.”When GM officials learned of

their rating, they posted a Tweetstating, “We’re proud to be oneof the 517 Best Places to Workfor #LGBT Equality in @HRC’sCorporate Equality Index.”Fiat Chrysler spokesman Mike

Palese said that the companywas the first automaker to offerdomestic partner benefits to em-ployees in 2000 and has attaineda 100 percent CEI rating tentimes since the benchmark wasestablished in 2002.“FCA US is proud of our long-

standing support of our LGBTQemployees, customers and com-munities,” said Marlin Page, headof Diversity and Inclusion, FCAUS LLC.“Our consistent record of pro-

viding an inclusive work cultureand benefit parity for our LGBTQemployees represents our corebelief in the talents and potentialof our people.”

LANSING, Mich. (AP) – A re-port ordered by Gov. Rick Sny-der says Michigan must spend$4 billion more annually to up-grade infrastructure that in-cludes roads, water systems andthe power grid.The study released Dec. 5 says

the state and local governmentsspend less than the U.S. averageand in surrounding states.Snyder, who appointed the

commission in the wake of theFlint water crisis, says Michi-gan's “infrastructure challengesare serious and wide-rang-ing’and it must “act with ur-gency.''The 21st Century Infrastruc-

ture Commission report includesrecommendations for all types ofinfrastructure systems, includ-ing transportation, water andstorm water, wastewater treat-ment and drainage, energy andcommunications infrastructure.The commission says as a first

step, Michigan should become a“national leader’and create astatewide asset managementsystem.

Vehicle safety is somethingbuyers look for and that’s goodnews for Buick.The 2017 Buick Envision AWD

compact SUV has earned a five-star overall vehicle score fromthe National Highway TrafficSafety Administration (NHTSA)— an accolade achieved byevery Buick model rated for twoconsecutive model years, saidGM spokesman Michael Ofiara.Earlier this year, the Envision

also earned the Insurance Insti-tute for Highway Safety’s (IIHS)best possible rating, a 2016 IIHSTop Safety Pick+ (TSP+) whenequipped with optional frontcrash prevention, Ofiara said.That rating was extended into

the 2017 calendar year as the En-vision with optional front crashprevention and high intensitydischarge (HID) headlights wasnamed a 2017 IIHS Top SafetyPick+.“Safety, quality and craftsman-

ship are designed into everyBuick,” said Duncan Aldred, vicepresident of Global Buick Sales,Service and Marketing. “Earningtop ratings from some of the in-dustry’s most important safetyorganizations validates not onlythe excellence of the Envision,but further builds the Buickbrand’s reputation as a leader insafety and quality, two attrib-utes high on every shopper’slist.”The Envision has earned its

safety ratings by offering cus-tomers an extensive list of stan-dard and available safety fea-tures, both active and passive,Aldred said.These safety technologies uti-

lize a combination of five cam-eras and 13 radar and ultrasonicsensors around the vehicle tohelp offer owners peace of mindbehind the wheel.The Envision also features a

robust body structure that incor-

porates extensive use of mass-re-ducing high-strength steel.Envision’s available Forward

Collision Alert and Forward Au-tomatic Braking systems, whichcan help drivers avoid collisions,were vital to obtaining the 2016IIHS TSP+ rating.That rating requires a vehicle to

score Good on a multitude of IIHScrashworthiness tests and receivean Advanced or Superior score onfront crash prevention, which wasa new IIHS requirement in 2016,Ofiara said. The 2017 IIHS TSP+rating requires a vehicle to earnGood ratings in the crashworthi-ness tests, an Advanced or Superi-

or rating for front crash preven-tion and a Good or Acceptableheadlight rating.The new Buick Envision ar-

rived at dealers in North Americathis summer and is off to a quickstart with more than 10,000 retailsales to date, Ofiara said. Theaverage Envision spends justover 30 days on a dealer’s lot,less than half of the industry av-erage.15-Star Safety Ratings are

awarded under the NationalHighway Traffic Safety Adminis-tration's (NHTSA's) New Car As-sessment Program (www.Safer-Car.gov).
