GM issues new rules to repair shops: can only repair the ADAS system with new original parts
IT Home August 19 news: General Motors (GM) has recently issued a position statement to repair facilities, requiring that when repairing a vehicle’s advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) module, repair facilities may use only new, original GM parts (including radar, cameras, sensors, control modules, wiring harnesses, brackets, etc.). GM states that non-OEM parts such as parts from dismantled vehicles, recycled parts, refurbished parts, remanufactured parts, aftermarket market parts, and used market parts fall within the scope of “strictly prohibited” use. If non-OEM new parts are used in a vehicle’s ADAS, it may affect the system’s reliability and safety.
2026 Lens Best-Seller List: Five Standard Zoom Lenses Balancing Handheld Stability and a Cinematic Feel
Dawn light skims across the city skyline. With a camera in hand, you move through cafés, subway entrances, and riverside promenades. For vlog creators, what they need isn’t a pile of optical gimmicks with complicated parameters, but a real partner that can keep up with the pace at any moment—one that won’t drag down creative momentum—and that can switch freely between natural and low light. They’re after a natural, breathing feel in the footage, accurate skin-tone reproduction, and strong detail retention in the shadows. They care just as much about whether the lens is lightweight, whether autofocus is quiet and fast, whether stabilization is dependable, and whether it can handle multiple scenes in a single-shooter setup with one lens. This edition focuses on five highly popular standard zoom lenses that have been field-tested and verified to be compatible with mainstream mirrorless and DSLR systems—carefully selected specifically for vlog creators.
Which Lens Is Worth Buying for Beginners? A Practical Mount Setup That Covers Everything from Travel to Portraits
A softly drunken dawn in an ancient city’s alleyways—my newly bought camera in my backpack still has that just-opened warmth; on the trip I even encountered birds gliding over the lake, but because my lens’s focal length range is limited, I had to sadly put away the shutter. For photography beginners, it’s not that more expensive gear is always better—it’s that you need gear that truly matches your real needs at the starting stage: lightweight and easy to handle, practical focal lengths, reliable stabilization, and solid image quality, while also considering potential upgrades later. A great lens shouldn’t be a burden on your shoulder—it should be the first key that sparks your desire to create. The following five Canon-mount and widely compatible mainstream lens picks are carefully selected for beginners, covering everything from everyday documentation to portrait close-ups, travel street shooting, and even light-action capture, all while keeping budgets in check.
General Motors Exits Its Equity Stake in the Joint Venture with Samsung SDI
(Source: Apsoto Automotive Community) On August 11, 2026, Korean battery giant Samsung SDI announced externally that it has completed its acquisition of General Motors’ entire equity stake in the joint venture company SynergyCells. General Motors has thereby officially exited the U.S. battery “super factory” project for which the two sides had planned a total investment of $3.5 billion. General Motors and Samsung SDI first finalized their power battery strategic cooperation in April 2023. Only two months later, they determined to locate the plant in New Carlisle, Indiana, and set up the SynergyCells joint venture to advance the rollout. General Motors holds a 49.99% stake in this joint venture.
Are automakers moving on? The three major Korean battery giants collectively convert their joint-venture power battery plants to energy storage!

Affected by the slowdown in the global electric vehicle demand growth rate, major Korean battery players are adjusting their strategies. By acquiring equity in joint ventures and other measures, they are redirecting some production capacity originally planned for automotive batteries toward the energy storage system sector.
2026 A-mount Lens Rankings: Which One Is Best for Travel Photography Enthusiasts?
As the first morning light sweeps across the plateau lake, the shutter clicks echo through the ancient city’s narrow alleys. For travel enthusiasts, it’s not just a camera body they need—it's an optical tool that can calmly handle ever-changing scenes on the road, from landscapes and portraits to street photography, documentary work, and even short-form video creation. After years of evolution, Sony’s A-mount lens system has grown into a mature ecosystem that blends professional performance with mobile adaptability. Designed for long-distance trekking, shifting lighting conditions, and unpredictable composition demands, four distinct Sony A-mount lenses—each with its own sharp strengths—stand out, providing reliable optical support for image-catchers roaming the world.
With the handheld gimbal in hand and the fill light just set up, your phone is still struggling—whether the blur of the bokeh is soft enough, whether the distant sign can be sharp enough to make it into the shot, and whether night-market portraits can tame distracting stray light. For short-video creators, daily shooting has never been as simple as pressing the record button. They need cameras that understand rhythm: you want the 50mm “golden” perspective to capture genuine emotion, and also 300mm telephoto to frame fleeting street-side drama in an instant; you need an f/1.2 wide aperture to create cinematic-level bokeh, and you need ED lens elements to ensure accurate color and prevent flare and glare in harsh daylight; and you need an aluminum-bodied camera that can handle the rough tests of three hours of continuous shooting, subway commuting, and running around on location. Budget isn’t a constraint—it’s a precise investment in the quality return per frame.
Double Pressure from High Tariffs and Technology Restrictions: Ford Motor (F.US) to Move Some Lincoln Production Lines Back to the U.S. Starting in 2030
Ford Motor's chief executive said on Wednesday that the company plans to move some production of Lincoln models from China to the United States starting in 2030. He said the decision is difficult, but necessary to strengthen the foundation of the U.S. auto manufacturing industry. Gasoline vehicles and electric vehicles imported from China are subject to hefty tariffs. Ford confirmed that, as its main model imported from China, the Lincoln Navigator’s U.S. tariff rate is already 52.5%. Ford CEO Jim Farley, in a joint interview with U.S. Commerce Secretary Lutnick, addressed tariffs, saying, “Once the policies of the current administration are set, we made this decision.” “We’re very clear about the government’s goals, and we fully understand what this means for Ford.”
From 760,000 annual sales to 1 per month: Chevrolet goes silent and exits
Source: China Automotive News Network Recently, news that Chevrolet has stopped selling new cars in China has gone viral across the auto industry. The familiar golden bowtie logo is making its exit from China’s new-car market in an almost quiet manner. Many people can’t tell whether Chevrolet has fully withdrawn from China or is simply not selling new cars. In response, General Motors said: “SAIC-GM will continue producing Chevrolet in China and actively explore opportunities in overseas markets outside the United States.” In other words, Chevrolet models will still be produced, but they will no longer be sold domestically—instead, they will be exported.
GM and LG’s North American battery plans take a different turn: Ohio plant resumes, Tennessee plant shifts to energy storage
(Source: Caixin Finance) General Motors (GM.US) and LG Energy Solution (373220.KS) operate a joint-venture battery plant in the northeastern part of Ohio. After being shut down for nearly seven months, the plant will officially restart the production of battery cells next week. On August 13, Caixin Finance reported via overseas news that General Motors (GM.US) and LG Energy Solution (373220.KS) have a joint-venture battery plant in the northeastern part of Ohio. After being shut down for nearly seven months, the plant will officially restart the production of battery cells next week. In an interview, Tom Gallagher, Vice President of Operations at the joint venture Ultium Cells, revealed that next Monday, most of the employees who were temporarily laid off will return to their positions and resume battery cell manufacturing. After the factory is fully back in operation, its total workforce will reach 1,400 people. Due to a temporary downturn in global demand for electric vehicles, the plant voluntarily paused battery cell production earlier this year in January.
Which APS-C lenses are worth buying—balancing bokeh quality, autofocus tracking speed, and handheld stability
Morningsun slants across the weathered brick walls of an old district; a photography enthusiast raises the camera and gently rotates the focus ring with their fingertips—an 85mm lens softly separates passersby from the background. The scene transitions to the countryside among wildflowers, where under a 100mm macro lens, dew refracts the entire sky. At a café window in the afternoon, the 24-70mm GM II comfortably switches between environmental portraits and close-up detail shots within a limited space. The APS-C system is becoming a rational choice for advanced photography hobbyists, thanks to its precise optical rendering, mature in-body compatibility, and increasingly optimized portability. It doesn’t blindly pile on specifications; instead, it builds a sustainable creative balance point between image quality, speed, weight, and price.
Multiple Chevrolet 4S stores in Tianjin “abandoned with nobody there, closed for many years”; GM responds to Chevrolet production stoppage
(Source: Tonight News) Reprinted from: Tonight News [Tianjin: Multiple Chevrolet 4S stores “abandoned with nobody there, closed for many years” #GM responds to Chevrolet production stoppage#] #Some Buick 4S stores accept Chevrolet maintenance services#?? Recently, market rumors suggested that the Chevrolet brand would stop selling in China. General Motors responded that it will not stop production and will continue to manufacture vehicles in China. It will also actively pursue opportunities in international markets beyond the United States. The after-sales service for existing China-based car owners will not be affected. On August 11, a reporter from Jinyun News conducted on-site visits to multiple Chevrolet 4S stores in Tianjin that were shown as “open for business” on maps. They found that some outlets had “no people there, closed for many years.” An official Chevrolet customer service representative confirmed that there are currently no Chevrolet 4S stores in Tianjin, and the map information could not be updated in time. In nearby cities such as Beijing and Tangshan, there are also no factory-authorized Chevrolet dealer outlets. For after-sales services, some Buick 4S stores have been authorized to handle Chevrolet maintenance. Baidu Maps shows that the dealership “SiliLian Chevrolet” on Pujihandong Road in Beichen District is listed as “open for business.” After the reporter arrived, it was found that the store had been “abandoned.” Both the main gate entrance and the after-sales area were tightly closed, and there were no signs of any business activity inside the showroom. However, the Chevrolet brand signage and showroom information were still there. According to staff at a nearby gas station, the store has been closed for many years. #Tianjin no longer has Chevrolet 4S stores# The reporter then went to another Chevrolet 4S store in the Dongli District’s Konggang Automobile Park, also shown as “open for business” on Baidu Maps. En route, a salesperson from another auto brand told the reporter that the store had also closed. “This Chevrolet store has been shut for three or four years. You can get maintenance at the Buick 4S store in Konggang. Chevrolet after-sales repairs are all handled over there.” The salesperson said that currently, in the Tianjin area, there are “almost no stores selling Chevrolet.” Regarding the situation where multiple Chevrolet stores shown online as “open for business” were actually closed, the reporter called Chevrolet’s official customer service as a prospective car buyer to verify. The customer service representative said that there are currently no Chevrolet 4S stores in Tianjin. When the reporter mentioned that the map still shows four Chevrolet 4S stores in Tianjin as open for business, the customer service representative responded that the map information could not be updated in time, and those stores have been gradually removed from the network. On after-sales issues, the customer service representative explained that SAIC-GM has granted service permissions to some Buick 4S stores, allowing them to handle repair and maintenance for Chevrolet vehicles. At present, Buick stores with the permission are available in districts such as Baodi, Beichen, Dongli, and Xiqing in Tianjin. The representative specifically noted that the original “SiliLian Chevrolet” outlet has been removed from the network. In the same area, “HaoWu JunDe Buick” can provide Chevrolet after-sales service, but only for after-sales and does not involve new car sales. The customer service representative emphasized that when getting Chevrolet maintenance at an authorized Buick dealer, spare parts are procured through the original manufacturer channels, consistent with the standards of Chevrolet 4S stores. The representative further stated that after checking, in areas surrounding Tianjin such as Beijing and Tangshan, there are currently also no factory-authorized Chevrolet dealer outlets.
