Outline · [ Standard ] · Linear+ Mitsubishi isi inchide fabrica din europa

Se pare ca vremurile nu sunt prea bune pentru mitsubishi in europa. Tocmai ce au anuntat ca vor inchide fabrica Nedcar din olanda, unde se producea mitubishi colt. Sincer nu ma mira, tinand cont ce au reusit sa faca din colt la facelift.. ba se pare ca si outlander se fabrica acolo, care la fel.. de la facelift arata groaznic.. It used to be that “produce where you sell” is the answer to the rising yen. Amongst Japanese car manufacturers, Japan’s Godzilla currency is regarded as a bigger threat than any natural disasters. Mitsubishi is opposing this trend. It announced today that it will stop making cars in Western Europe. On closer inspection, this fits the “produce where you sell” strategy quite nicely. Mitsubishi is not doing so well in the Old Country. The Nikkei [sub] penned press-release worthy material when it wrote:     “Contending increasing international competition being compounded by the stubbornly strong yen, the Japanese car maker will stop production at its Netherlands Car BV unit by the end of 2012 as it strives to step up optimizing its global manufacturing operations to focus more on emerging markets.” Mitsubishi’s Nedcar plant is located in Born, in a part of the country that was called “the appendix of the Netherlands” by some of its neighbors, until the fall of visible borders made such ribbing superfluous. More irritatingly, the plant has an annual output capacity of 100,000 vehicles, but NedCar had only produced 23,808 vehicles by the end of 2011, as company data say. Mitsubishi Global Production 2011 Japan  603,594  -8.60% Thailand  209,003  8.60% China  109,463  -11.50% Other Asia  117,331  18.16% North America  37,145  26.50% Europe  23,808  -11.60% South America  37,350  2.60% Others  2,638  Global  1,140,332  4.70% A look at this table shows why Mitsubishi is focused on the emerging markets. In calendar 2011 Mitsubishi’s total global production stood at 1,140,332 units, down 2.8 percent from the prior year. A little bit more than half of that was produced in Japan. In most other established markets, Mitsubishi produces only in homeopathic dosages. In Western Europe, Mitsubishi currently builds the Colt compact and the Outlander SUV in Born, it imports the rest. In 2011, Mitsubishi sold a total of 95,225 units in the EU, the second lowest result of automakers tracked by Europe’s manufacturer association ACEA. In the U.S., Mitsubishi sold 79,020 units in 2011, up 42 percent from 2010. Mitsubishi told the Nikkei that it will not retreat from Europe. The common market will be supplied with vehicles coming from Japan and Thailand. http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2012/02/429709/

Da vine si noul Outlander care are design-ul inspirat dupa cel fara face-lift. Se vede ce mult succes a avut botul ala agresiv pus pe toate modelele...

Eu zic sa nu-i mai plangeti, ca au inca destule modele care se vand binisor. Probabil vor muta aceasta fabrica undeva mai convenabil pentru profitul lor.
