Consumer Reports built a $1 million track to test semi-automated driving features
Consumer Reports has opened a new $1 million test track that will be used to evaluate Advanced Driver Assistance Systems like Tesla's Autopilot.
Car dealers are dealing again.
Thanks to improving supplies, the average amount paid for a new car has fallen below the manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP), and incentives are growing.
There are plenty of discounted models to be found this Memorial Day weekend, but Consumer Reports has highlighted some of the best.
It's restricted its picks to models with high overall scores in its benchmark ratings.

"You’re likely to see ads for other models, but they may have come up short in Consumer Reports’ testing," the organization said.
"It is important that shoppers to do their research and not be swayed by the savings alone."
