Make cars for men first, women second.
Build a new car using an existing model as a base to save money (but you're spending money no matter what, you greedy retards).
Then, mass produce it.
This is the single fastest way to see results at this point. Anything you release now needs to be a parts bin special because this is survival mode.
1. Make a Dodge Camry.
(we will be smart and offer a coupe version, unlike Toyota)
Rebadge as an Alfa Romeo Giulia as well.
Two main engines, two drivetrains:
Hurricane-4/Hurricane-6/Hurricane-6 (SRT)
RWD / AWD
Save both brands. Re-use parts.
How will this be successful? Well, the Camry and Corolla are still the top selling sedans, and this is just both of them, while also being cooler and faster (did I mention there's a coupe.)
This will be made using Hornet body panels (or the Tonale, whatever). The front end will be shaved down, and the fucking soccer moms you were selling them to were never there, so I'll just make a desirable sedan/coupe out of it. We are making these into a cheap commuter car AND competitive performance sedan. It will be highly adaptable and sporty, while lower trims will be exceedingly cheap grocery getters. Price: $27,000-$50,000
2. Make a compact 2-door convertible. 1100kg curb weight Miata competitor that men actually want to drive. Standard inline-4 engine from the Tonale/Hornet, (we recycle here) but because of its size, will be an absolute rocket and a budget Viper. 268hp and 295ft/lbs of torque in a RWD 2400lb car would be insanely sporty.
See what I did there? I put the less powerful engine in the faster car.
3. Stop making 50 different inline-4 and V6 engines for each brand. Volkswagen Group has ONE of each engine. Bentley, Audi, Volkswagen, SEAT, Skoda, etc. all share engines. Stop wasting money and time producing so many identical fucking powertrains when you're under the same parent company and can just share. No other auto manufacturer is this retarded about engine production.
