Hence the reason that Mually's 'One Ford' is the only way forward. In this global market I see neither Ford Aus or Holden surviving. Holden produced 57,000 cars last year. They have stated that they need 105,000 to be viable. Cruze is expected to sell about 30,000. That still leaves 15,000-20,000 shortfall in production for GMH. Ford Aus made a profit last year on ~50,000 vehicles.
