Why are car manufacturers all such globalist shills, Veeky Forums?

Because factory workers in 1st world countries are expensive. I don't see the problem

Why don't they charge less then?
You're paying premium for muh german engineers and german workers. You're getting something designed by a pajeet, engineered by a chink and built by a slav. Lower the price or gtfo.

cause more people will drive their cars

Bmw has a video where they take you through every step of making a car. The amount of automation and expensive machinery is insane. Also people are willing to pay that price so why lower it

>do bmw sa delivery

>Mercedes
>Alabama
>GM
>Mexico
What did Mercedes mean by this?

literally every company does that for literally every car literally since the dawn of automated machinery.

this isn't an excuse for the price. Nissan Versas are made via the same methods as modern BMWs. the only thing you're buying is perhaps a more quality interior and a brand name. Fuck, even Honda civics are starting to be just as nice interior-wise, with perhaps the lack of real leather.

You're hardly even paying for "quality accessories" anymore what with their ridiculous prices.

where get life-pillow size twingo

because they used to do good work outside of the lazy fucktards in england and australia

t. aussie

Doesn't matter BMW has built a reputable brand so they're going to milk it

There's still plenty of jobs that are still 'good work'

get in line, burger.

the machines were supposed to lower costs, ya dingus

gb2 your cesspit

>Welcome to hyper-capitalism and trickle-down economics

...

Not /pol/

eat a dick retard

Sperg more cuckold

the cost of transporting parts to final assembly and point of sale are not accounted for
amalgamation is always the killer

>Audi is producing in Hungary, Poland and Slovakia
That actualy doesn´t sound as bad as the others.
>Tesla is pruducing in USA
>Streetscooter is producing in germany

Why are only the EV manufacturers based?

turd worlders work for less, go figure

and I'd be more worried about your mexico built off brand VAGs than anything built in Slovakia

True, but would people be willing to pay the same price if Audi advertised their vehicles as "Made in Slovakia" instead of German sentences that are supposed to evoke feelings of "Germanness"?

well slovakia has a booming automaker industry so idk, even though all they make are KIAs

them and czechs used to be one country at some point, and they make the only good slav vehicles, Skoda

close enough

Car assembly is mostly an automated process so it doesn't matter if the guy ''building'' it just finished cleaning toilets in his second job or selling cocaine to american tourists

Skoda is cool but it's mostly the Czechs.
Nowadays they've been invaded by gay azns like hyundai and kia that where they plan to overtake the economy by selling cheap shit cars to the populace compared to better skoda.

skodas are just VWs

the new superb is great value for money but super unreliable so lease one if you want one
LOL skoda is on par with kia/hyundai. not some superbrand but it is shilled here in eastern europe for some reason????

>tfw Tatra was once the leader in communist luxury cars but now all they make are utility cars

I wasn't even aware they made anything anymore. besides the 911 tho ;)

there are also ones for bmw mini
so much attempted quality control yet so many failures in the field
per unit yes
but then you have to sell all that garbage to counter the cost of maintenance and materials
step back to see the larger costs
>tfw modern cars are approaching slav levels of quality while simultaneously attempting to include luxury features at a cut cost

They make trucks only since like 1999

also the 911

labour costs, also just because a country is less wealthy doesn't mean its people are inferior mr. 56%

they one of the few places that did not licence build everything
>tfw zastava was once central Europe's largest auto-maker
then it was skoda now its ....nvm

don't know how combloc/east Europe rolls
zaz zil and vaz are most known
but there are lots of little guilds that died out
Rába - mvg - Gyor
polmo
FAP
MZ
REEM
too many to list or remember really

Tesla is producing in the US but Drumpftards hate Tesla because muh manliness vroom vroom emissions god bless.

VAZ GAZ and such are mostly in russia or some outlying countries desu
the most popular would still be skoda though, cause it's a slav car but vw.
dacia makes some okay cars but they don't have a good market share.

Fiat produces in Japan and Serbia as well.

EV haters is a strawman, nobody "hates" EV's, people hate the ignorant hysteria around Elon Musk, Tesla and muh dinosaur cars

Actually I do hate EVs
They are a huge, immense, great turd of a meme right now and the cars are gaudy pieces of shit.

If I had to drive an EV it'd have to be a convert.
And converts are expensive.

If a P100DS or whatever it's called cost as much as a Mustang, I'd get one desu

How about a Model 3 performance version?

You are buying a QA and design process. That's why Toyota and Lexus is infinitely better than Honda and GM despite being made in the Midwest.

my guess is that they sell more cars there or near that area, cost of labour is cheaper, and. maybe shipping cars from there is cheaper or all your clients are near you so you don't have to pay an extra amount on shipping.

but i agree if you're aren't making it with german quality (the one that used to be) don't charge german money.

it's all the same shit. parts get sourced. robot puts them together

You're not paying for the wages of the workers or robots whatever, you retards.

The government of the country where the plant is, is the reason why. They tax the shit out of the company for various stuff in 1st world countries.

its more that the factories and raw materials are more dispersed than the markets that buy the products
like if vertical integration got swol and stated taking over entire nations and geopolitical areas

chances are high that even if the assembly plant is located in germany turks and eastern europeans work in it anyway. plus german quality is a meme on all frontiers, but a well selling meme of powerful marketing implication. so they'll overcharge for it
