Porsche uses phone-formatted bar codes to connect with customers

Porsche is harnessing the power of smartphones, using Microsoft Tag bar codes to provide dealership customers with unique information about the cars they're looking at.

Through the microsite, buyers can provide contact info for a follow-up call from Porsche salespeople.

McLaren managing director on leave, not expected in Geneva

McLaren Automotive's U.S.-born managing director, Antony Sheriff, is expected to be absent from the launch of the P1 hypercar at Geneva next week because he is on extended leave from the company.

Despite those assurances, sources had reported earlier in the year that Sheriff “hadn't been seen in his office” for some days.
