Couple more reasons.
Ever calculate the financial bath auto manufactures were taking on lease returns? Somebody paying $5000 over two years on a $40,000 vehicle. Then leasing something new again. Leaving the manufacture with $35,000 owing on a vehicle worth 15-20 thousand.
Ever count how many duplicate and overlapping models of consumer vehicles there are?
All that is required is are econo box, mid sized, large/taxi/police and a sporty car. A small and large truck. A small and large van. That's eight.
Holden (GM) in Australia was going bust until they went with one chassis and three options. A two door, a four door and two door pickup thing.
Parts inventory was slashed, cost per unit construction went down.
