US Cars VS Asian Cars
It is a fact that the American automakers are losing their own battle of building cars. For decades the icons like GM, FORD and Chrysler are seen as the only cars available.
What the heck happened now?
First the Japanese automakers made its mark that their cars are more affordable. Then few years later it made its mark that the Japanese cars are far better quality than what the US automakers have. Which catered the american's quest of looking for a vehicle that would last more than five years which originally US automakers have designed their vehicle platforms.
And then comes the Korean cars, not just affordable, high quality vehicles but they are safer and environment friendly vehicles. They also last at least 10years of use before replacement.
They have expanded their operations here in the US and have generated jobs (not Union) for americans. And if you look at GM, Ford and Chrysler, they have been laying off workers and have been closing plants this year and will be closing some more in the next months to follow.
More bad news and more market loss for them now that the Indian and Chinese automakers have expanded and will be more competitive.
