Hybrid Car Insights, Gas-Saving Tips, Auto Industry Analysis and Car-Shopping Advice Now Presented by Edmunds.com Experts Using New VideoLink ReadyCam Studio

SANTA MONICA, Calif. — July 12, 2007 — Edmunds.com, the premier resource for automotive information, today announces that its automotive expertise is now directly and immediately available to television networks through the company's new VideoLink ReadyCam© studio located within its Santa Monica headquarters.

Some topical automotive subjects that Edmunds.com spokespeople can easily cover include:

  • Great Deals Abound for Car-Shoppers: Minivans are subsidized at record levels, brand new trucks are heavily discounted as automakers battle for market share, and the industry's hottest segment, compact cars, is full of great choices for under $15,000.
  • Gas-Saving Tips and Myths: Edmunds.com tests show that aggressive driving wastes more fuel than people might think, that driving with open windows is no less efficient than using air conditioning, and that there are other ways to achieve unexpected savings.
  • Leasing is Back, and is Worth Considering: Nearly every automotive ad promotes a leasing deal, but how should a consumer decide whether to lease or to buy?
  • Diesels are More Cost-Effective Than Hybrids: As hybrids are becoming more popular, diesels are largely overlooked even though they provide excellent fuel economy at a typically more reasonable cost.
  • Avoid Car-Shopping Stress: Summer is the busiest time for car sales, and consumers can avoid a lot of stress and hassle by working with the Internet departments of their local dealerships.
