8. Why is Ford selling?
Ford made losses of 12.6 billion in the year 2006
The result of bad performance of Jaguar. Jaguar has been a dog i.e. it
has not been able to provide any profit for ford because of the high
manufacturing costs provided in the United Kingdom.
The strong boy Land Rover's profit, on the other hand, was driven by
the record sale of 2.26 lakh vehicles, an 18% YoY growth in 2007..
Bringing down production costs and turning around the company
successfully will be the challenge,” analysts said.
It was a test that Ford failed.
Ford announced for a combined sale
of both Jaguar and Land Rover
