Synopsis
The semester is over, the numbers are in and now it's time to post the grades. This week on Autoline Detroit John McElroy unveils the 2007 edition of his Original Equipment Manufacturers Report Card. It compiles the financial performance of the top 13 automakers in the world in seven different categories. For example, which do you think is the most efficient car company in the world from a total productivity standpoint? Which car company devotes the most amount of resources to research and development? Which one has the best profit margins? And, when you add it all up, which is the best run car company in the world? We think you’re going to be surprised by the results. Joining John on the broadcast to assess the numbers and offer their own opinions on the OEM’s and how they're doing are Michael Robinet from CSM Worlwide and industry analyst Jim Hall.-
