We recently received news that the Dodge Viper would return to production, SRT hand responsible for Ralph Gilles. In the talk that would be presented in April at the Auto Show in New York.

The goose that lays the golden eggs has been a little cold. So far the unstoppable growth of China encouraged brands to expand their domains in Asia to take advantage of revulsion effect of a country wishing to buy Western products. But in recent weeks we have seen the perfect terrain for speculation is becoming increasingly complex and competitive. Prices drop and European manufacturers have to adapt their offers accordingly.
China’s growth has slowed considerably and it is not surprising that to remain competitive offers as some have launched aggressive and radical than the Chinese authorities themselves consider that they are selling below the actual cost of manufacturing and transportation. European manufacturers have not yet reached such an extreme, yet Mercedes-Benz already has been released including discounts close to 20% in any of their products.
The federal government itself has commissioned Chinese to the prices in major cities of the country descend sharply to the point that brands like BMW and Audi are tripling the amount of their savings, maintaining an average of 10%. The ability of speculation and profit margins are lower, but certainly the increase in sales in November has been considerable. Audi A 69%, 24% for Mercedes-Benz and BMW 9.8%.
That said, the China market is increasingly competitive and complex for foreign manufacturers. Yet it seems that the goose that lays the golden eggs over, for now, this cold and Western manufacturers can continue to breathe quietly and rubbing his hands with the results in China later this year.
