How will General Motors respond to the problem of over-capacity?

Tom White

16th April 2012

General Motors (whose main brand in the UK is Vauxhall) survived the global financial crisis thanks to the support of the US government. This is probably good news, but it adds to the problems of other car makers. In Europe there are simply too many, producing more vehicles than the market can absorb without heavy discounting, which hurts the manufacturers.

An interesting video clip here, explaining the problem and the choices facing GM.
