Interesting. I like their focus on the lower market Lark......but to achieve the desired economics they needed volume which we already know never came. With the transition to EVs I think the same thing is going to happen to many OEMs that currently serve the lower end of the market. They may get pushed up market if the Chinese OEMs ever come to North America. The problem is that if that happens there will be too many upmarket OEMs and not all of them can survive on lower volumes in fragmented market.
Today I walked a few dealer lots here in my city. There are lots of pickups, large SUVs, and some upscale mid market CUVs available in inventory......but lower end compact, and compact CUVs are really lacking from an inventory standpoint. From my current POV, I am not sure if dealer inventory days of old will ever be the same again.
