Conclusion 结论
Whilst it would be make a lot of business sense for a company like Ford to close down more plants and accept a smaller portion of the U.S. market this strategy would not work in favour of GM because then the company would produce and sell fewer vehicles, meaning less income for those big pension and health-care costs. GM has to maintain its cash flow to cover these costs until a future date when it is hoped that the elderly retirees diminish in number whilst also making improvements in quality, efficiency, design and brand appeal.
虽然对福特这样的公司来说，关闭更多工厂并接受美国市场的一小部分是很有商业意义的，但这一战略不会对通用汽车有利，因为届时该公司将生产和销售更少的车辆，这意味着这些高额养老金和医疗费用的收入将减少。通用汽车必须保持其现金流以支付这些成本，直到未来某一天，人们希望老年退休人员的数量减少，同时在质量、效率、设计和品牌吸引力方面也有所改善。
Although GM has cut the time to assemble a vehicle from an average of 32 hours in 1998 to 24 hours in 2003, Japanese competitors are still faster in getting new models into the market. Honda’s new vehicle development cycle is only 14 months and the company is working towards compressing development time down to 12 months. GM should look at this as a challenge to embrace and strategise with a view to improve its development cycle to match its competitors if not exceed them.
尽管通用汽车已将组装车辆的时间从1998年的平均32小时缩短到2003年的24小时，但日本竞争对手在将新车型推向市场方面仍然更快。本田的新车开发周期仅为14个月，该公司正在努力将开发时间压缩至12个月。通用汽车应将此视为一项挑战，接受并制定战略，以期改进其开发周期，使其与竞争对手相匹配，甚至超越竞争对手。
Whilst these recommendations provided are meant to help GM sustain its market share, they cannot be fully appreciated until they have been put to test and the results obtained critically analysed to create room for adjustments where necessary and where applicable.
虽然所提供的这些建议旨在帮助通用汽车保持其市场份额，但在对其进行测试并对获得的结果进行批判性分析以创造必要和适用的调整空间之前，这些建议无法得到充分认可。本站提供各国各专业留学生Report作业写作指导服务，如有需要可咨询本平台。
