That's indicating that they have a retarded customer base who will gobble up overpriced garbage. Like I said if they can't take advantage of that maybe they aren't cut out in the automotive world and they should to stick to making shitty food and anime instead.

Oh, oh yeah, the japanese car company that is singularly the collective best seller of all car companies in the USA is "in trouble"
Oh yeah man totally.
It's absolutely shameful to see the Japanese de-evolve down into jewish social behavior for a little bit of money. What the fuck.

It says that the only Japanese company in a good position is Toyota.

I'm a car noob but I always wondered wh Japanese car manufacturers never had a supercar brand like lamborghini or ferrari, all their flashy celebrities use foreign made cars when the rest of the country uses domestic brands. their only luxury cars are things like the Toyota Century and Lexus. I guess maybe they associate the italians with luxury more than their own manufacturers.

>car named avoid in spanish

It was all the lead they breathe in during the leaded gas years, burning the echoes of roaring high comp v8s into their childhood brain. A completely silent, emissionless vehicle devoid of all emotion scares them more than pink ponies

Toyota, Mazda, and Subaru will survive since they are all really just Toyota anyway. Nissan will just barley survive as a distant number 2, and Honda committed seppuku for EVs only to not sell any of them a d for China to ass fuck them hard.

I think every car maker is really just Toyota anyway. Toyota has to support every one of those 'car companies' because they can't manage to do anything on their own. Every Subaru and Mazda is a rebaged Toyota. Every Chevy and Ford is a rebadged Toyota. Even VW and BMW, yep, all rebadged Toyos. They should cut the crap and delete all these copycats and just leave the Toyota to make things easier

Subarus are uniquely suited to mountain states/areas due to being the only mainstream cars with an AWD system that's actually decent. They're tremendously popular anywhere with hills+ice/snow and have huge brand loyalty because of that. They ought to be able to survive as long as Toyota doesn't force their drivetrains on Subaru IMO.

Subaru has really done well over the last 15 years despite making less and less fun cars. Good on them for staying alive despite having literally less than 10% of Toyota's workforce.
