Review Q&A honda icon thailand

What are the most iconic vehicles (cars, ships, spaceships, etc. in the real world or in fiction)?

I am completely shocked that with 67 answers here, no one has mentioned the most produced motor vehicle of all time (60 million!), a vehicle that has been in continuous production since 1958 with very little change and continues to sell millions a year, gets 200mpg and the vehicle behind one of the biggest advertising successes ever... The Honda Cub. This was my Cub (square headlamp, 70cc, built in the mid 80s in Thailand) The advertising was great: It shows housewives, a parent and child, young couples and other respectable members of society-referred to as "the nicest people"-riding Honda 50s for a variety of purposes. The colorful illustration and highly professional design appealed strongly to the public. Those who would otherwise have rolled their eyes at the word "motorcycle," and those who previously had no interest in them, soon saw in the motorcycle a new purpose: one of casual and convenient daily transportation. The Discovery Channel had a countdown of the 50 greatest motorcycles, and the Honda Cub came in at #1 (this is a ,very, entertaining video): And here is a video version of an early Honda Cub ad (not one of the better ones, unfortunately) Honda is planning to sell an electric version of the cub:

Why do so many people ride motorbikes in Thailand?

As others have said, cost, mostly… The Honda Wave is iconic here, in all it’s variations, ruggedness and versatility… Put a third wheel on one side and a large metal basket, it becomes a saleng, a ultimate utility wagon, for carrying people, vegetables, construction materials, and as mobile grill and noodle stands. The 110cc motor and semi automatic transmissions are indestructible. Compared to cars, although you should have a license for a motorbike, around 20% of the locals don’t and rarely get pulled up anyways, many also have no insurance or registration, a small tip to the local tumluwat fixes that problem. Those photos you see of 4–5 young kids on the way to school are fact, easiest way to get to school. Parking is impossible in a lot of Thai cities, there just isn’t much, a motor you can stuff almost anywhere, same with getting around, if you’ve ever been in Bangkok traffic, and sat in a taxi for 20 minutes waiting to get through one light as motorbikes buzz past you, squeezing through between cars and down footpaths, then you’ll understand why. If you have a death wish, take a motorbike taxi in BKK, it’s madness, you have to leave your fear behind.. The young hipsters still roll on Vespas, Scoopy I, and Aerox machines, upwards of 80,000 baht, Vespas are almost twice that, but there has been a huge resurgence of older bikes, like Sonic 125’s, Bell and the Chally, these know go for a decent price. My ride has been a Honda Click 125, since 2014, I have a big bike too, and have bought three others for my BIL and my two kids, the only time I take the car is when it’s raining or the wife whinges that it’s too hot.. So convenient just to get to the shops on the bike, costs nothing to run and nothing to fix…

Since Fiat Automobiles, an Italian automotive conglomerate owns Chrysler, how can Chrysler cars be called American cars?

Since Fiat Automobiles, an Italian automotive conglomerate owns Chrysler, how can Chrysler cars be called American cars? Every major car company is global these days. They all have manufacturing plants in multiple countries, and in any event buy components on the open market from makers that hail from a variety of countries too. If your gripe is about where the ,parent company is headquartered,, that tells you very little of value, except to the extent top management meddles in the operation of its subsidiary. From what I’ve read, Fiat bought Chrysler mainly because they wanted the Jeep line, and to be able to add Jeep running gear to Fiat’s own line of off-road vehicles — the new mini-Jeep and Fiat SUVs are virtually identical, except for bodywork. Fiat knows that the USA is not a prime market for its family cars, commercial trucks, etc., and is pretty much staying out of the US market, except for its “500” retro subcompact (which only “vaguely resembles” the original 500, to compete with BMW’s retro “Mini” which name used to be a British icon but also just has a vague resemblance to the original Mini), and their re-introduced “124” sports roadster, which is basically a re-bodied Mazda Miata (speaking of cross-national mixing). If your focus is on ,ownership, of the company, the fact that the parent company is “incorporated in Italy” doesn’t tell you anything. The stockholders are who “own” a company. You, or I, or anybody, could run out today and buy shares of Fiat/Chrysler ,stock,. People all over the world can do this. If somebody in Madagascar buys some shares in Fiat, does that make it a Madagascarian company? No. If your focus is on ,where they make the cars,, now we’re getting somewhere. Most Chrysler and Jeep models are still made in the U.S. of A., except for those that are made just across the border, in Canada or Mexico, pursuant to the NAFTA trade agreement — which has been a boon for ,U.S.-based, carmakers because they can move their low-profit-margin, cost-cutting models to nearby countries instead of completely offshoring their manufacture to, say, East Asia or Eastern Europe. That means they are more likely to use various U.S.-made components from U.S.-based suppliers that employ U.S. workers. What, did you think those jobs were “coming back” to the U.S., if Trump axes NAFTA? Not a chance. To the extent they weren’t already eliminated by automation and increased efficiency (such as “just in time” inventory management), the U.S. carmaker jobs that are already here are the ones making cars that U.S. buyers want — mostly, big and expensive. Every major maker — GM, Ford, the Europeans and the Japanese — do this. They make their powerful, top-end cars in the U.S. (or in their home countries), and make their cheaper models elsewhere, with cheaper labor. Every major carmaker owns overseas subsidiaries, and has done so ever since Henry Ford started making Model Ts in England. For example, GM owns Opel in Germany, Vauxhall in England, Holden in Australia, and so on, and used to own SAAB cars, back when Ford owned Volvo before GM sold SAAB to the Dutch and Ford sold Volvo to the Chinese. Ford used to own Jaguar, until they sold it to an Indian company, Tata Motors. That doesn’t make Jaguar any less “British,” nor are the Hondas that are made in Thailand or Malaya any less “Japanese.” My Nissan was made in Kentucky. Does that make it an “American” car? It certainly employs American workers, to put it together. It is made out of American steel, from Ohio or Pittsburgh or Baltimore, made by U.S. steelworkers, and many of its components came from the U.S., right down to things like its batteries and tires and window glass — all of which would have come from Japan, more likely, if it had been made in Japan. By the way, did you know your all-American “Apple” products are probably made in China, the components in your computer (or the whole thing) may have been made in Singapore or Taiwan or Israel, even if it is a U.S. brand, or a Japanese brand? It’s not just automobiles. BTW, ask Trump where they make his “MAGA” hats and the Trump-brand ties he sells.

While Singapore and Singaporeans are greatly appreciated in Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia, why doesn’t Singapore get the same kind of attention from Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong?

I'll give you my 2 cents opinion. I was a big fan of Japan-Culture (anime, drama) so I learn Japanese language. And I like to learn all about their social- culture. As I conclude, Japanese are nationalist people. They all speak Japanese even all elites/high profiles person. The government, royal family, high-tech elites, university lecturers and students do not speak English. They don't consider English as a superior culture. Elderly generation who have built Japan(they studied in Europe universities and back to Japan) already translated all technology education text into Japanese language. All big companies elites such Honda, Yamaha, Mitsubishi don't speak English. All I can say, they don't need English. Just a few of them are able to speak English. If some Western foreigners visit Japan, local folks don't seem them as a special awesome thing. Indeed, Japanese have a good politeness. Hotel staff and restaurant staff will moderate bow to you occasionally. They moderate bow as a greetings. Japanese do not adore their neighbors (Korea, PRC) too. Japan is already advanced and wealthy. They're competing each other. Now Korea. I was a big fan of SM entertainment. I was big fan of Super Junior. So I follow their daily vlogs. I learn Korean language also. As I noticed that Korean people are nationalist too. Only few people are able to speak English. Super Junior members speak very limited English (except Kim Ki Bum). Their English is funny and hard to be understood. But why? They're super talented and became a national icon abroad. Like Japanese, Korean don't consider English as a high privilege. How Korean sees foreigners? Korean respect foreigners but not adoring them. But I know nothing about Taiwan social culture at all. I don't know what their view about foreigners particularly. Now, in South East Asia. We consider Singapore and Singaporean are more advanced and wealthier than other neighborhood countries. People are welcomed Singaporean or we adore them. Not all, but typically we do.

Which country makes the best cars?

First of all, there’s absolutely no such thing as the best automobile. People get incredibly emotional over this. Last year, there were 91 MILLION new cars sold, that were made in 50 countries. Finally, do we judge companies based on where their Headquarters are? Or based on where they manufactured? Or where their parts are made? How do you characterize an entire nations automotive output? As I’ve mentioned here on Quora many times, the car business is Global in nature. Cars are designed and built all over the world. BMW’s largest manufacturing facility on the earth is in the US in South Caroline, and they export cars from there all over the world. The iconic Toyota Camry sold in the US is designed in California at their CALTY studio, and built in Kentucky with engines built in either Japan, Alabama, or West Virginia. Ford builds their Edge in Windsor Ontario in Canada. Tesla is about to begin manufacturing in China…. is that an American car? A Chinese car? Toyota makes cars in 18 countries, and many of those cars are unique to those countries. Microcars in Asia, family sedans and SUVs in the US, small trucks in Columbia. GM builds mid size pickup trucks in Thailand. Are those Thai? American? Hyundai makes a huge percentage of their small cars in India with much of the engineering being done in India. Are those cars Korean? Are they Indian? Many Americans as an example believe that Japanese cars “are the best”. Its dumb, naive, and wildly out of date. It’s tired old dogma that may have been somewhat true 30 years ago, but almost all of the cars sold to American buyers now from companies like Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Subaru etc are ALL built in the US with tons of US sourced parts. So how do you determine who does the best job? I could go on for pages with examples of how its nearly impossible to answer this question. People will likely comment about 1 car they’ve owned that never burnt out a taillight bulb, so therefore wherever that car was made makes the best cars. But the modern reality is, most modern car companies make perfectly fine cars all over the world, with designs and engineering coming from all corners of the earth, and parts that are made just about everywhere.

Is Mitsubishi Motors going out of business?

Maybe not, as with COVID-19 harmng Japan (where ,Mitsubishi Motors, and the ,Mitsubishi, conglomerate is home to) and the rest of the globe, therefore I may think that before the French-owned Nissan car company purchased and owned Mitsubishi (Motors) in 2016, then it would have been proven in the past for one [Japanese] car company (that is a part of a deeply big conglomerate) to be part of a fellow compatriot (like Toyota). Well, speaking as an alternate history; if Mitsubishi (Motors) should have not jump into the deeply ailing Franco-Japanese Renault-Nissan camp, therefore a Toyota takeover of Mitsubishi would have happen somewhere circa 1970s, 1980s, or 1990s. Because it was proved to be a mistake for MMC (which is the acronym for ‘Mitsubishi Motors Corporation’) to jump into the also ailing Chrysler car company’s turf, which also made ,Chrysler, to be the owner of the Mitsubishi car company (not conglomerate like ‘Hyundai’) in 1971, but especially, this could be a long, long, long discussion here as to explain why Mitsubishi Motors should have not just refuse a Nissan tie-up (as an alternate history), but also to explain why Mitsubishi Motors had pass the wrong way as well (plus its involvement with Hyundai since the Mitsubishi was its supplier of parts). The Chrysler takeover of Mitsubishi Motors was a ‘part of Mr. Kubo's expansion strategy was to increase exports by forging alliances with well-established foreign companies. Therefore, in 1971 MHI sold U.S. automotive giant Chrysler a 15 percent share in the new company. Thanks to this deal, Chrysler began selling the Galant in the United States as the Dodge Colt (which was the first rebadged Mitsubishi product sold by Chrysler), pushing MMC's annual production beyond 250,000 vehicles. In 1977, the Galant was sold as the Chrysler Sigma in Australia.’ (source: ,Mitsubishi Motors (1970s) - Wikipedia,). ‘By 1977, a network of "Colt"-branded distribution and sales dealerships had been established across Europe, as Mitsubishi sought to begin selling vehicles directly. Annual production had by now grown from 500,000 vehicles in 1973 to 965,000 in 1978, when Chrysler began selling the Galant as the Dodge Challenger and the Plymouth Sapporo. However, this expansion was beginning to cause friction; Chrysler saw their overseas markets for subcompacts as being directly encroached by their Japanese partners, while MMC felt the Americans were demanding too much say in their corporate decisions.’ (source: ,Mitsubishi Motors (1970s) - Wikipedia,). So far, in the 1980s, ‘Mitsubishi finally achieved annual production of one million cars in 1980, but by this time its ally was not so healthy; As part of its battle to avoid bankruptcy, Chrysler was forced to sell its Australian manufacturing division to MMC that year. The new Japanese owners renamed it Mitsubishi Motors Australia Ltd (MMAL).’ (,Mitsubishi Motors (1980s) - Wikipedia,) ‘In 1982, the Mitsubishi brand was introduced to the American market for the first time. The Tredia sedan, and the Cordia and Starion coupés, were initially sold through seventy dealers in 22 states, with an allocation of 30,000 vehicles between them. This quota, restricted by mutual agreement between the two countries' governments, had to be included among the 120,000 cars earmarked for Chrysler. A restricting element of Mitsubishi's deal with Chrysler was that Chrysler had the right of first refusal of any Mitsubishi automobiles in the US market until 1990. Toward the end of the 1980s, as MMC initiated a major push to increase its U.S. presence, it aired its first national television advertising campaign and made plans to increase its dealer network to 340 dealers.’ (,Mitsubishi Motors (1980s) - Wikipedia,) ‘Despite the ongoing tensions between Chrysler and Mitsubishi, they agreed to unite in a vehicle manufacturing operation in Normal, Illinois. The 50/50 venture provided a way to circumvent the voluntary import restrictions, while providing a new line of compact and subcompact cars for Chrysler. Diamond-Star Motors (DSM)—from the parent companies' logos: three diamonds (Mitsubishi) and a pentastar (Chrysler)—was incorporated in October 1985, and in April 1986 ground was broken on a 1.9 million square-foot (177,000 m2) production facility in Normal, Illinois. In 1987, the company was selling 67,000 cars a year in the U.S., but when the plant was completed in March 1988 it offered an annual capacity of 240,000 vehicles. Initially, three platform-sharing compact 2+2 coupés were released, the Mitsubishi Eclipse, Eagle Talon and Plymouth Laser, with other models being introduced in subsequent years.’ (source: ,Mitsubishi Motors (Diamond-Star Motors) - Wikipedia,) ‘Mitsubishi Motors went public in 1988, ending its status as the only one of Japan's eleven auto manufacturers to be privately held. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries agreed to reduce its share to 25 percent, retaining its position as largest single stockholder. Chrysler, meanwhile, increased its holding to over 20 percent. The capital raised by this initial offering enabled Mitsubishi to pay off part of its debts, as well as to expand its investments throughout south-east Asia where it was by now operating in the Philippines, Malaysia, and Thailand.’ (source: ,Mitsubishi Motors (1988 IPO) - Wikipedia,) ‘Hirokazu Nakamura became president of Mitsubishi in 1989 and steered the company in some promising directions, with the advent of the Japanese asset price bubble "market correction" that led to the Lost Decade as a result of the Plaza Accord agreement signed in 1985. Sales of the company's new Pajero were bucking conventional wisdom by becoming popular even in the crowded streets of Japan.’ ‘It was heavily rumored by Japanese media, in 1992 and 1993, that Mitsubishi Motors intended a hostile acquisition of Honda. While Mitsubishi was riding high off of profitable vehicles such as the Diamante and Pajero, Honda was caught off-guard with the SUV and truck boom and was losing focus after the illness and later death of its founder. However, Honda CEO Nobuhiko Kawamoto took drastic steps, such as exiting Formula 1 and discontinuing unprofitable vehicles to avert a Mitsubishi takeover, which proved effective.’ ‘Although sales of SUVs and light trucks were booming in the U.S., Japan's car manufacturers dismissed the idea that such a trend could occur in their own country. Nakamura, however, increased the budget for sport utility product development, and his gamble paid off; Mitsubishi's wide line of four-wheel drive vehicles, from the Mitsubishi Pajero Mini kei car to the Delica Space Gear passenger van, rode the wave of SUV-buying in Japan in the early to mid-1990s, and Mitsubishi saw its overall domestic share rise to 11.6 percent in 1995.’ (source: ,Mitsubishi Motors (1990s) - Wikipedia,) ‘Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) participated in a ¥540 billion emergency rescue of Mitsubishi Motors in January 2005, in partnership with Mitsubishi Corporation and Mitsubishi Tokyo Financial Group. As part of the rescue, MHI acquired ¥50 billion of Mitsubishi Motors stock, increasing its ownership stake to 15 percent and making the automaker an affiliate again. The emergency rescue was carried out 4 years after a product recall scandal in Japan that was triggered by accussations of Mitsubishi Motors allegedly trying to systematically hide manufacturing defects to avoid recalls, and marketing problems in the US.‘ (source: ,Mitsubishi Motors (2000s) - Wikipedia,) ‘In 1991, Chrysler sold its equity stake in Diamond-Star Motors to its partner Mitsubishi, and from then on the two companies continued to share components and manufacturing on a contractual basis only. Chrysler decreased its interest in Mitsubishi Motors to less than three percent in 1992, and announced its decision to divest itself of all its remaining shares on the open market in 1993. The two companies then terminated their close alliance, with Mitsubishi no longer supplying parts for engines and transmissions for Chrysler. After this period, Mitsubishi sought alliances with many other automotive manufacturers in different areas of the world, as described under "other alliances" below, with its most economically significant alliance being with Nissan to develop and manufacture kei cars.’ (source: ,Mitsubishi Motors (Independence) - Wikipedia,) ‘South Korean manufacturer Hyundai, built the Hyundai Pony in 1975 using MMC's Saturn engine and transmissions. Korea's first car, it remained in production for thirteen years. Mitsubishi held up to a 10 percent stake in the company, until disposing of the last of its remaining shares in March 2003.’ ‘The 1985 Hyundai Excel was sold in the United States as the Mitsubishi Precis between 1987 and 1994, whereas several other Mitsubishi models were rebadged as Hyundai, namely the Mitsubishi Chariot (as the Hyundai Santamo), the Mitsubishi Pajero (as the Hyundai Galloper) or the Mitsubishi Delica (as the Hyundai Porter) and Mitsubishi Proudia (as the Hyundai Equus).’ (source: ,Mitsubishi Motors (Hyundai) - Wikipedia,) Therefore, when Hyundai was just a smaller ‘Korean’ car company (as the same thing did with Kia when they only utilise their cars from the Japanese Mazda car manufacturer before), Hyundai too started their first car (the Italian-designed ,Hyundai Pony, compact) that possessed a handful of mechanical parts straight out of Mitsubishi Motors’ cars (hence the ,Mitsubishi Saturn (aka 4G3) engine,), a practise Hyundai did to their 1980s and 1990s cars until they developed mechanical parts of its own (especially for the engines’ architectures being Mitsubishi-based, like for example is the ,Mitsubishi 6G7 V6 engine,), which started from the ,Hyundai Alpha inline-four engine,, and others too (also Hyundai utilised Mitsubishi’s already trademarked ,Gasoline direct injection, technology for their engines too, which was also practised by VAG/VW, and other car companies, especially TOYOTA with its ,2GR-FSE V6 engine,). As going back to the Mitsubishi under Toyota ownership banter: As for Toyota in the 1970s (the decade where Mitsubishi was then purchased and owned by Chrysler), they rather felt a little relaxed after buying ,Hino Motors (Toyota’s lorry/truck manufacturing division), in 1967, the same year Toyota even triggered a partnership with small car specialist ,Daihatsu,, whose attempts to invest itself overseas (specifically in ‘Europe’, the British Isles, the U.S. (but not in Canada), and Australia/NZ) had been better off worse. Hence Daihatsu attempted to establish a foothold in the U.S. automotive market with the Charade as its first car, until it stopped its operations in 1992. But, there were only three Daihatsu vehicles had been sold inside U.S. soil, hence the ,Daihatsu Feroza (dubbed in ‘Europe’ and AU/NZ as the Daihatsu Feroza, the Daihatsu Sportrak in the UK, and the Daihatsu Rocky in the U.S.),, the ,Daihatsu Hijet that was even made an appearance on the first episode of MTV’s now-dead ‘Pimp My Ride’ TV programme,, and EVEN the ,Daihatsu Charade, as well, an idea Toyota experienced with killing off ,Scion, in 2013 (a U.S.-exclusive marque established by Japan’s still leading automaker that was focused on younger car buyers). So, when Toyota found the solution to boost its revenues/budget once again (after buying Hino and tying the knot with Daihatsu), by importing such cult favourites like the Starlet (now replaced by the Yaris), Carina (which was a twin to the Corona whose name is not used in ‘Europe’ and the UK/Ireland), Celica, Land Cruiser, Hilux, Hiace, Corolla, and others overseas. Especially Toyota had the honour of developing the ,[Toyota] Kijang, MPV (dubbed in the Philippines as the Toyota Tamaraw and in Papua New Guinea as the Toyota Traka) that was only focused on the Southeast Asian automotive market, as hence the model’s name means 'Kerja Sama Indonesia-Jepang' (which also means in English as ‘Indonesia-Japan Cooperation’) and ‘deer’ (,muntjac,) in Indonesian and Malay (Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Malaysia). Also the Kijang/Tamaraw had also been a hit to Toyota’s Southeast Asian operations (so do in Taiwan, where it was called as the ,Toyota Zace,), it even reached India with the Mk3/third generation Kijang being called as the ‘,Toyota Qualis,’ (produced from 2000 to 2004), and even South Africa as the ,Toyota Venture (aka Toyota Stallion for pickup/ute version only), as well (an example of how the Toyota Kijang being sold overseas with such names). So when Mitsubishi felt uncertain about its alliance with Chrysler, therefore they even developed a Mk2/second generation ,Mitsubishi Delica (aka Mitsubishi L300 and Mitsubishi Express (also marketed as a Chrysler) in Australia), that would later become a popular model running on the roads of the Philippines since it was introduced and produced there (Philippines) in 1987 (until onwards as of now), especially Mitsubishi had experienced of suffering recalls for their cars in the past, such as this info (from: ,Mitsubishi extends recall of faulty cars as scandal widens | The Japan Times,), seen below: ‘Mitsubishi Motors Corp. said Tuesday it will recall another 88,000 vehicles following a previous recall announcement in July, admitting that the firm had been systematically hiding user complaint documents from authorities for at least 23 years.’ ‘In some cases, MMC secretly fixed defective cars to avoid a recall. The start of such practices could date back to 1969, when the recall system was established in Japan, ministry officials said.’ ‘“This is very regrettable. From the viewpoint of user safety, this kind of thing should never happen,” said a sour-faced Transport Minister Hajime Morita, who met MMC President Katsuhiko Kawasoe when he went to the ministry Tuesday to apologize for the debacle.’ ‘Kawasoe took with him the results of an in-house investigation carried out after the defect coverups first came to light in July.’ ‘The latest recall, which affects vehicles produced from 1998 until Aug. 6, includes 45,374 units of the firm’s Minicab, whose fuel cap valve is feared to leak gasoline; 32,371 Gallants, in which a problem was found with the fuel tanks; and 7,202 Lancers, which have a fault in the structure maintaining stability in its rear wheels.’ ‘Six accidents caused by the defective autos have been reported so far, including a traffic accident involving MMC’s multipurpose vehicle Pajero in Kumamoto Prefecture in June in which two people suffered whiplash, according to the Transport Ministry.’ ‘In addition to the 88,000 defective autos to be recalled, MMC is also required by an ordinance to fix 8,889 Delica vehicles, which have a weak and defective damper weight, the ministry said.’ ‘MMC also will voluntarily launch “service campaigns” for 6,617 Diamante vehicles that were produced between September 1999 and May this year, as well as 100,900 Minicab units that were produced from December 1998 through July 3 of this year, the ministry said.’ ‘According to Transport Ministry officials, MMC said employees had stamped some complaint documents from users with an “H” mark, hiding them from regular inspection by the ministry since at least 1977.’ ‘Of 88,000 user complaints reported since April 1998, MMC said it hid about 64,000 from ministry inspectors. , the officials said. In July, the ministry conducted a surprise inspection of MMC, which uncovered a mountain of hidden complaint documents and led to the recall of 532,000 automobiles.’ ‘MMC subsequently launched the in-house investigation committee and submitted a report to the Transport Ministry on Tuesday, admitting the firm hid certain information in an organized way, with approval of department chief-level executives.’ ‘The Transport Ministry is now considering slapping administrative penalties on MMC as early as September for violations of relevant laws by falsifying reports, which could force MMC to pay a fine of up to 1 million yen. , the officials said. Speaking at a news conference Tuesday, Kawasoe admitted what he described as “double management” of complaints from consumers and other product information since September 1977.’ ‘“We have been conducting improper practices in quality management over a long time,” Kawasoe said. “There is no way we can make an excuse for that. We are facing a very regrettable situation that can be described as a lack of respect for regulations.”’ ‘In handling complaints and other product information from consumers, MMC separated information on defects for which the causes were difficult to discern and therefore hard to explain to the Transport Ministry during inspections.’ ‘This double handling of information has led to quality control methods that are at odds with the regular handling of such data and also with measures to follow up on complaints, Kawasoe admitted.’ ‘The practice, which started in 1977 when some employees decided not to disclose information, subsequently become routine practice, he said.’ ‘Kawasoe said he will severely punish board members and employees in connection with the scandal, including cutting wages, but he ruled out the possibility of resigning himself.’ Also from a news article from four years ago (,Mitsubishi Motors admits using unapproved efficiency tests for 25 years | The Japan Times,): ‘Embattled automaker Mitsubishi Motors Corp. admitted Tuesday that its method of testing fuel efficiency, which does not comply with Japanese standards, has been in use since 1991, much longer than it had previously stated.’ ‘The Tokyo-based automaker said it is investigating why its testing specialists have used the unapproved method for a quarter-century.’ ‘“We are not sure if they were even aware that it was the wrong method. When it started, they might have thought it was correct, and that thought was then passed down, so it is possible that they did it without questioning why,” Mitsubishi Motors President Tetsuro Aikawa told a news conference at the transport ministry.’ ‘The automaker was ordered by the transport ministry to investigate the matter and report back by Wednesday.’ ‘The unapproved testing method — known as a running test — is one that is used in the United States. It helps to save time, but Japanese regulators have never approved its use.’ ‘Mitsubishi said it compared the test’s outcomes with those of the approved Japanese test in 2001 and found barely any discrepancies. The difference was a matter of 2.3 percent, at most, it said.’ ‘The firm said it will compare the two methods once again, adding that it is not sure how many cars received the unapproved tests.’ ‘Regarding a separate scandal involving massaged fuel efficiency figures for more than 620,000 minicars, Mitsubishi said it is still investigating what happened and why. Four car models were involved.’ ‘The firm repeatedly set higher fuel efficiency goals for its minicars, and this may have pressured employees not to let the team down, Mitsubishi executives said.’ ‘For 157,000 units of the eK Wagon and eK Space models sold by Mitsubishi and 468,000 units of Dayz and Dayz Roox supplied for Nissan, Mitsubishi intentionally used figures for tire and air resistance that would be small on the road.’ ‘Mitsubishi stopped assembling and shipping the affected cars last week after the scandal came to light.’ ‘Analysts say the firm potentially faces huge costs for compensating parties involved, including car buyers, Nissan and the government — which granted it tax discounts for fuel-efficient cars.’ ‘The firm is scheduled to announce its earnings for fiscal 2015 on Wednesday but is likely to skip announcing its forecast due to future uncertainties.’ ‘Its shares crashed again Tuesday, closing the day’s trading at the Tokyo Stock Exchange at ¥434, down 9.58 percent. The automaker’s stock price has halved since the scandal broke a week ago.’ ‘Authorities raided the company’s office last week after its initial admission of error and the firm has warned that the number of affected vehicles could rise. So far it has not included those sold overseas.’ ‘The analysts say the revelations raise questions about Mitsubishi’s future and point to a broader problem in the global car industry as regulators probe other automakers’ pollution and fuel-efficiency claims.’ ‘Embattled German carmaker Volkswagen said Friday the massive test-dodging scandal it is currently engulfed in pushed it into its first annual loss in more than 20 years, but that the final costs still cannot be estimated.’ ‘Also Friday, Germany’s transport minister Alexander Dobrindt said a probe sparked by Volkswagen’s emissions-rigging scandal found irregularities at 16 car brands, including Mercedes, France’s Renault, Alfa Romeo, Chevrolet, Hyundai, Jaguar, and Nissan.’ ‘Information from AFP-Jiji added’ Therefore, that was how Mitsubishi Motors would predict those things when it was part of a certain, ailing American automaker (Chrysler) at that ttme, then when tensions between Chrysler and Mitsubishi Motors were about to rose somewhere in the 1980s. Then Mitsubishi would have sever its partnership with Chrysler, and instead form an aliiance with Toyota, which meant that if Mitsubishi sided with Toyota (than the mediocre and now-dying Chrysler marque) in the 1980s, then Toyota would rather become a conductor to Mitsubishi by sharing its works like its transmissions, and their inline four and six engines that was powered inside the Corolla (so do the deeply iconic and FR AE86), Supra, Land Cruiser, Hilux, and even other models as well. But instead of establishing DSM (Diamond-Star Motors) in the U.S. (for Mitsubishi) and forming an alliance with General Motors in North America and Australia (for Toyota), therefore Toyota and Mitsubishi Motors would rather form a partnership in regards of Mitsubishi merging with Toyota’s operations abroad, for examples were the ,NUMMI (New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc.), plant (in California, U.S.) that is now already called as the ,Tesla Factory,), and the ,United Australian Automobile Industries (UAAI), plant in Melbourne, Australia as well, rather than those where once part of Chrysler’s Australia and NZ operations (see: ,Mitsubishi Motors Australia - Wikipedia,). Especially, that would let Toyota to keep its lead in the Japanese automotive industry, while Mitsubishi Motors would end up dethroning Nissan in second place as a result of the alternate history (a Toyota-Mitsubishi partnership). Therefore, Mitsubishi Motors joining Toyota’s orbit would have been circa 1970s (probably 1977, if Chrysler ownership got vanished), when the Mitsubishi nameplate was absent in the U.S. and Canada until 1982. Also in 1982, India’s government-founded ,Maruti Udyog, (established in 1981) should have preferred Mitsubishi Motors over Suzuki as its partner, in the end, Maruti merged with Mitsubishi (the car company), and formed ‘Maruti Mitsubishi’ (instead of Maruti Suzuki) as a result of a joint venture agreement between MU (Maruti Udyog) and MMC (Mitsubishi Motors Corporation), which would end up producing a handful of Mitsubishi cars (ex: ,Mitsubishi Minicab,) under licence (also built exclusively for Indian roads). Chrysler on the other hand, changed its mind after losing Mitsubishi to Toyota’s umbrella, and instead joined Ford as to pay tribute to Lee Iacocca (who worked for Ford before Chrysler), so Chrysler Europe was took over by Ford’s ‘European’ operations (instead of Peugeot) in 1978. Mitsubishi’s merger with Toyota later led to building its cars that were based on Toyota vehicles (just as how Hyundai does to Kia now), the Pajero shared the same chassis as the Land Cruiser, and the Starion had shared the same skeleton with the [Celica] Supra for example. Mazda, which is a Japanese automaker that has a deeply poor experience in ,off-roading, than in those pertaining to ,road racing,, had formed an alliance with the ‘Ford-Chrysler Alliance’ in 1979, but twelve years later, the Toyota-Mitsubishi union had targeted a financial takeover of Mazda after winning the 1991 24 Hours of Le Mans race (which made Mazda the first Japanese marque to win the deeply famous endurance racing event) that was later resulted to ,a ban on rotary engines in Le Mans (1992),, rather than a plan to buy Honda before and after Soichiro Honda’s death on 5 August 1991, which resulted to Honda being targeted by a Mitsubishi purchase (from 1992 to 1993) that was later avoided with Honda leaving F1 and cancelling the production of unsuccessful models. Then the deal with the Toyota-Mitsubishi partnership had resulted to Mazda’s alliance with the hypothetical Ford-Chrysler union ended, as with models like 323, MX-5, 626, etc were all planned to be based on the architecture of Toyota and Mitsubishi’s cars, but the addition of Mazda too had brought an end to the usage of rotary engines, as Toyota planned to develop boxer and V6 engines, and also hybrid cars like the Prius (while RX-7 production was aborted, Mazda instead developed the MX-6 as based on the Toyota Celica). Nissan on the other hand, had owned ,Subaru, from 1986 to 1999 (the year Nissan accidentally joined Renault and Subaru incidentally joined GM before Toyota bought and owned Subaru from 2005 onwards), so when Nissan (which was not owned by one antiquarian French automaker hence Renault) was demoted to the bottom (by the historically hypothetical Toyota-Mitsubishi merger) of the rankings in Japan’s automotive market, therefore Nissan too would rather purchase the Honda that was just a small Japanese marque (which not just builds cars like Mitsubishi and Korea’s Hyundai do). So, Honda had went on to stay and race in Formula One, then Nissan supported Honda’s role in F1, and decided to be a longtime participant, which was the point that Honda avoided a Mitsubishi takeover just to leave F1. Nissan developed the 300ZX as a mid-engined production sports car, then Honda shared its chassis, and went on to develop the NSX instead, which did not utilised twin turbochargers compared to its Nissan sibling. The Civic on the other hand, was later built on the Nissan Sunny/Pulsar chassis, the Nissan Sentra shared the same platform as the former, and the Accord was instead based upon the skeleton of the Nissan Bluebird (aka Stanza) Then in the end, Honda under a hypothetical Nissan ownership circa 1980s would have Nissan to trademark ,VTEC, at the same time Honda do, as for Nissan (which was not owned by the French Renault) being the conductor and parent to Honda, Honda would rather develop SUVs and pickups/utes being derived from the ,Nissan Pathfinder (aka Nissan Terrano outside of the U.S. market),, its larger ,[Nissan] Patrol, sibling, and the ,Nissan Hardbody (aka Nissan Navara and Nissan Datsun) pickup,, instead of dealing with ,Isuzu for the Honda Passport that was only sold for the North American market, as an example.

If Mazda and Subaru are neither selling cars in India while Tata Motors is deeply non-existent in some parts of Europe like the Nordic and Baltic countries, then why shouldn't Toyota sell the said two small-scale East Asian marques to the Tata Group?

I am a from somewhere overseas. But, despite the question’s title is about ,Toyota, selling off their six and twenty percent stakes in ,Mazda, and ,Subaru, to India’s ,Tata Group, [in exchange for them [the Tata Group] to abandon their ownership of ,Jaguar Land Rover, to the ,Elon Musk,-led ,Tesla Inc,], therefore I detailed the link’s notes below: “,Mazda stakes revival of fortunes on expansion of its lineup,” “,Hopes are high for new 'large products' and EVs with iconic rotary engine,” “,HIROSHIMA, Japan -- Mazda, struggling with intensifying competition, will turn to new models to revive its fortunes. In addition to introducing "large products" in its new lineup, including SUVs to draw in car enthusiasts, the company will bring back the rotary engine, its global symbol. However, it remains an open question whether the company can reverse its worsening situation, which has been compounded by the new coronavirus.,” “,Mazda had already introduced new models and engines, but they failed to generate good results. With the pandemic weighing on the global economy, the company's global sales for the fiscal year ending March 2021 are expected to fall to 1.3 million units, a drop of 8% from the previous year. It is expected to record a final loss of 90 billion yen ($870 million). The company's first step to reverse its position will be to introduce new high-performance large products in 2022.,“ “,Mazda is trying to roll out two product groups, "large" and "small," categories based mainly on the size of the chassis. The large products include new SUVs in a popular series, equipped with six-cylinder engines and rear-wheel drive for sports driving, features aimed at auto enthusiasts. This unique flair is a secret weapon for Mazda, a small company by global standards.,“ “,According to Mazda-affiliated parts makers in Hiroshima Prefecture, production will start in early 2022 in at the company's plant in the city of Hofu, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The vehicles will be powered by standard gasoline engines, the new Skyactiv-X engine and diesel engines. They will mostly be "mild hybrids" with displacements of 3 or 3.3 liters.,“ “,The vehicles will be the successors to the existing CX-5 and CX-8 SUVs, but because those models are still competitive, all will likely be available at the same time. Multiple suppliers are reportedly planning to produce about 300,000 units, or just less than 20% of Mazda's global sales, in the fiscal year ending March 2025.,“ “,"We're trying to hold down costs by transferring orders to foreign parts makers," said a Mazda official. The large products focusing on high specifications is likely to be priced significantly higher than existing models, but the company is trying to cut costs as much as possible so as not to impact sales. "The price is getting higher than Mazda's initial assumption, and we're continuing to make adjustments like lowering the specifications of parts," said an executive at one of Mazda's parts suppliers.,“ “,"Pricing will change depending on whether the focus is on sales volume or improving branding," said Masatoshi Nishimoto, a manager at IHS Markit. "If they're aiming for volume, they should offer more grades of a single model to broaden the price range.",“ “,Another key will be the revival of the rotary engine. A new electric model that uses the rotary engine as a generator will be launched in 2022. This is expected to lead to some differentiation among the EVs being introduced by various manufacturers.,“ “,In a rotary engine, a triangular rotor rotates inside a cylinder to perform air intake, compression and combustion. In 1967 Mazda become the first company to successfully mass-produce a rotary engine, which was seen as a symbol of the company's technological prowess. Mazda ended production of the engine in 2012, but it will now be brought back for EVs. The MX-30, released in 2020 as Mazda's first mass-produced EV, will be the first EV to be equipped with this system, starting in the first half of 2022. Rotary engines are compact and have high output and low vibration, making them a good match for EVs.,“ “,The main issue is extending the vehicle's 200-km range on one full battery charge. According to parts makers involved in the vehicle's development, Mazda wants to double the range to 400 km. A 200-km range would be a problem even for short trips, but a 400-km range would give drivers more peace of mind.,“ “,The MX-30, which debuted in Japan in October as a gasoline model, is currently not selling well. The monthly sales target was set at 1,000 vehicles. Vendors in western Japan told Nikkei that in the first two months they sold only about half that amount. Its "freestyle door," a split door that opens from the center, is a significant issue, they said.,” “,"It's hard to use where parking spaces are narrow, like shopping centers," said an executive at one vendor. "The back doors are heavier than in previous models, which is unappealing to many women, especially those with children.",“ “,However, "the inclusion of the rotary engine will be a big selling point that will attract Mazda fans," said Koichi Sugimoto, senior analyst at Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities. "If they can strike a balance between cruising range and pricing, we can expect sustained sales growth.",“ “,Mazda's global sales bottomed out in April but have remained in negative territory. September sales were down 10% from the previous year, and October sales were 3% lower than in 2019. Although Toyota Motor and Honda Motor revised their full-year forecasts upward in their interim financial results released in November, Mazda maintained its previous forecast.,“ “,The company's sales had been weak before the pandemic. Sales of the CX-30 SUV, launched in fall 2019, have been strong, but sales of the Mazda3 compact car, which also debuted in 2019, and models with the new Skyactiv-X engine have been weak.,“ “,Environmental regulations in Europe that impose fines for excess emissions of carbon dioxide have also had an impact. Mazda had to adjust its sales mix by raising the prices of the CX-5, which has high emissions, by about 4% to reduce the fines it paid.,“ “,Mazda will place EVs, simple mild hybrids and rotary-equipped EVs in its "small products group." "We are also strengthening our electrification technology for large products, so we want to address global warming with those two groups," said company President Akira Marumoto.,” “,Plug-in hybrid models will be available for large vehicles, which will help push down average emissions and significantly contribute to meeting regulation standards. The success or failure of Mazda's two new models will augur the future of the company itself.,“ - source: ,Mazda stakes revival of fortunes on expansion of its lineup - Nikkei Asia === According to ,Wikipedia,: “,Tata Motors Limited is an Indian multinational automotive manufacturing company headquartered in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. It is a part of Tata Group, an Indian conglomerate. Its products include passenger cars, trucks, vans, coaches, buses, sports cars, construction equipment and military vehicles.,” “,Formerly known as Tata Engineering and Locomotive Company (TELCO), Tata Motors is a part of the Tata Group. Tata Motors has auto manufacturing and assembly plants in Jamshedpur, Pantnagar, Lucknow, Sanand, Dharwad, and Pune in India, as well as in Argentina, South Africa, Great Britain, and Thailand. It has research and development centres in Pune, Jamshedpur, Lucknow, and Dharwad, India and South Korea, Great Britain, and Spain. Tata Motors' principal subsidiaries purchased the English premium car maker Jaguar Land Rover (the maker of Jaguar and Land Rover cars) and the South Korean commercial vehicle manufacturer Tata Daewoo. Tata Motors has a bus-manufacturing joint venture with Marcopolo S.A. (Tata Marcopolo), a construction-equipment manufacturing joint venture with Hitachi (Tata Hitachi Construction Machinery), and a joint venture with Fiat Chrysler which manufactures automotive components and Fiat Chrysler and Tata branded vehicles.,” “,Founded in 1945 as a manufacturer of locomotives, the company manufactured its first commercial vehicle in 1954 in a collaboration with Daimler-Benz AG, which ended in 1969. Tata Motors entered the passenger vehicle market in 1988 with the launch of the TataMobile followed by the Tata Sierra in 1991, becoming the first Indian manufacturer to achieve the capability of developing a competitive indigenous automobile. In 1998, Tata launched the first fully indigenous Indian passenger car, the Indica, and in 2008 launched the Tata Nano, the world's cheapest car. Tata Motors acquired the South Korean truck manufacturer Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company in 2004 and purchased Jaguar Land Rover from Ford in 2008.,” “,Tata Motors is listed on the BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange), where it is a constituent of the BSE SENSEX index, the National Stock Exchange of India, and the New York Stock Exchange. The company is ranked 265th on the Fortune Global 500 list of the world's biggest corporations as of 2019.,” “,On 17 January 2017, Natarajan Chandrasekaran was appointed chairman of the company Tata Group. Tata Motors increases its UV market share to over 8% in FY2019.,” “,Tata Motors was founded in 1945, as a locomotive manufacturer. Tata Group entered the commercial vehicle sector in 1954 after forming a joint venture with Daimler-Benz of Germany. After years of dominating the commercial vehicle market in India, Tata Motors entered the passenger vehicle market in 1991 by launching the Tata Sierra, a sport utility vehicle based on the Tata Mobile platform. Tata subsequently launched the Tata Estate (1992; a station wagon design based on the earlier Tata Mobile), the Tata Sumo (1994, a 5-door SUV) and the Tata Safari (1998).,“ “,Tata launched the Indica in 1998, a fully indigenous Indian passenger car tailor-made to suit Indian consumer needs though styled by I.D.E.A, Italy. Although initially criticised by auto analysts, its excellent fuel economy, powerful engine, and an aggressive marketing strategy made it one of the best-selling cars in the history of the Indian automobile industries. A newer version of the car, named Indica V2, was a major improvement over the previous version and quickly became a mass favourite. Tata Motors also successfully exported large numbers of the car to South Africa. The success of the Indica played a key role in the growth of Tata Motors.,” “,In 2004, Tata Motors acquired Daewoo's South Korea-based truck manufacturing unit, Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company, later renamed Tata Daewoo.,“ “,On 27 September 2004, Ratan Tata, the Chairman of Tata Motors, rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange to mark the listing of Tata Motors.,“ “,In 2005, Tata Motors acquired a 21% controlling stake in the Spanish bus and coach manufacturer Hispano Carrocera. Tata Motors continued its market area expansion through the introduction of new products such as buses (Starbus and Globus, jointly developed with subsidiary Hispano Carrocera) and trucks (Novus, jointly developed with subsidiary Tata Daewoo).,“ “,In 2006, Tata formed a joint venture with the Brazil-based Marcopolo, Tata Marcopolo Bus, to manufacture fully built buses and coaches.,“ “,In 2008, Tata Motors acquired the English car maker Jaguar Land Rover, manufacturer of the Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford Motor Company.,“ “,In May 2009, Tata unveiled the Tata World Truck range jointly developed with Tata Daewoo; the range went on sale in South Korea, South Africa, the SAARC countries, and the Middle East at the end of 2009.,“ “,Tata acquired full ownership of Hispano Carrocera in 2009.,” “,In 2009, its Lucknow plant was awarded the "Best of All" Rajiv Gandhi National Quality Award.,“ “,In 2010, Tata Motors acquired an 80% stake in the Italian design and engineering company Trilix for €1.85 million. The acquisition formed part of the company's plan to enhance its styling and design capabilities.,“ “,In 2012, Tata Motors announced it would invest around ₹6 billion in the development of Futuristic Infantry Combat Vehicles in collaboration with DRDO.,“ “,In 2013, Tata Motors announced it will sell in India, the first vehicle in the world to run on compressed air (engines designed by the French company MDI) and dubbed "Mini CAT".,“ “,In 2014, Tata Motors introduced first Truck Racing championship in India "T1 Prima Truck Racing Championship".,“ “,On 26 January 2014, the Managing Director Karl Slym was found dead. He fell from the 22nd floor to the fourth floor of the Shangri-La Hotel in Bangkok, where he was to attend a meeting of Tata Motors Thailand.,“ “,On 2 November 2015, Tata Motors announced Lionel Messi as global brand ambassador at New Delhi, to promote and endorse passenger vehicles globally.,“ “,On 27 December 2016, Tata Motors announced the Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar as brand ambassador for its commercial vehicles range.,“ “,On 8 March 2017, Tata Motors announced that it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Volkswagen to develop vehicles for India's domestic market.,“ “,On 3 May 2018, Tata Motors announced that it sold its aerospace and defence business to another Tata Group Entity, Tata Advanced Systems, to unlock their full potential.,“ “,On 29 April 2019, Tata Motors announced a partnership with Nirma University in Ahmedabad to provide a B.Tech. degree programme for employees of its Sanand plant.,“ - source: ,Tata Motors - Wikipedia Whereas regarding to the info about the ,Tata Group,, the parent of the said, eponymous marque: “,Tata Group (/ˈtɑːtɑː/) is an Indian multinational conglomerate headquartered in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. Founded in 1868 by Jamsetji Tata, the company gained international recognition after purchasing several global companies. It is one of the biggest and oldest industrial groups in India. Each Tata company operates independently under the guidance and supervision of its own board of directors and shareholders.,“ “,Significant Tata affiliates include Tata Chemicals, Tata Communications, Tata Consultancy Services, Tata Consumer Products, Tata Elxsi, Tata Motors, Tata Power, Tata Steel, Jamshedpur FC, Tanishq, Voltas, Tata Cliq, Tata Projects Limited, Tata Capital, Titan, Trent, Indian Hotels Company Limited, TajAir, Vistara, Cromā and Tata Starbucks.,“ “,J. R. D. Tata was made chairman of the Tata Group in 1938. Under his chairmanship, the assets of the Tata Group grew from US$101 million to over US$5 billion. Starting with 14 enterprises, upon his departure half a century later in 1988, Tata Sons had grown to a conglomerate of 95 enterprises. These enterprises consisted of ventures that the company had either started or in which they held controlling interest. New sectors such as chemicals, technology, cosmetics, marketing, engineering, and manufacturing, tea, and software services earned them recognition.,” “,In 1952, JRD founded an airline, known as Tata Air Services (later renamed Tata Airlines). In 1953, the Government of India passed the Air Corporations Act and purchased a majority stake in the carrier from Tata Sons, though JRD Tata would continue as chairman till 1977.,“ “,In 1945, Tata Motors was founded, first focused on locomotives. In 1954, it entered the commercial vehicle market after forming a joint venture with Daimler-Benz. In 1968, Tata Consultancy Services was founded.,“ - source: ,Tata Group - Wikipedia But in addition to that, here are the following net sales/revenues in which the ,Tata Group,, ,Subaru,, and ,Mazda, possesses: Tata Group: 106 billion US dollars. Subaru: ? Mazda: ? Since there are no net sales results traced for both ,Subaru, and ,Mazda,, which means since the ,Tata Group, - the parent company of ,Tata Motors, - is deeply richer, therefore the Tata Group would be the one who could purchase the stakes Toyota owns in both ,Subaru, and ,Mazda,. But interestingly, both Mazda and Subaru are not just small-scale and irrelevant manufacturers from East Asia [hence Japan], but also, two of them [Mazda and Subaru] are neither selling cars nor familiar within the Indian market in fact. That means, if ,Toyota, would hand over the shares they control in Mazda and Subaru to the said Indian conglomerate [Tata Group], then as India still has no plans to electrify much of the cars which are being driven inside their [India’s] roads: Tata Motors, would gain benefit from Mazda’s so-called “,SkyActiv,” powertrains, such as its petrol/gasoline engines and automatic transmissions, in order to help Tata make their cars more reliable while they [Tata’s cars] are already considered as ,safer,, thanks to the benefit thus combination of its [Tata’s] steel and safety technology [derived] from ,JLR,. See also: ,Mazda Tops Annual Consumer Reports Reliability Study, Tesla Slammed - The Detroit Bureau,. But that would also mean, there are differences with the pricings of ,Jaguar-Land Rover,, Mazda, and Subaru cars: Since a number of JLR’s cars are deeply expensive, as they are assembled in Europe. Then it means, the vehicles of either Mazda or Subaru are deeply inexpensive since half of them are built in Thailand. But for the record, Mazda’s cars - such as the ,[Mazda] CX-3, and ,[Mazda] CX-30, crossovers - are profoundly inexpensive in contrast to Subaru’s model lineup, since Subaru’s cars are primarily yet permanently powered with 4WD and boxer engines. See also: ,Mazda to begin producing CX-30 in Thailand, arriving in PH soon? - Auto News - autoindustriya.com, and ,Thailand gets first Subaru plant in Asia outside of Japan - dsf.my,. That means, a certain Tata vehicle, e.g. the ,[Tata] Altroz,, with the combination of Mazda’s “SkyActiv”-stamped petrol engines, automatic transmissions, Subaru’s rugged lifestyle, and as well as Tata’s steel and [JLR-derived] safety technologies would help make Tata Motors great again. More notably, expecting a Tata car with the mixture of Mazda powertrains, sans manual transmissions due to both Mazda and Subaru being specialists in automatic transmissions, and even Tata’s safety tech might even help Tata Motors, plus as well as the whole ,Hyundai Motor Group, and ,Mahindra & Mahindra,, to derail ,[Maruti] Suzuki,. Especially, expecting the India-centred subsidiary of ,Suzuki’s car manufacturing department, to be agonised by the ,Tata Group’s eponymous automaking unit,, ,Hyundai, with ,Kia,, and ,Mahindra x2, deeply manifests the fact that ,Suzuki’s carmaking division, had bad vibes in the US and Canada, which was meant for Suzuki’s automotive unit to close down their North American - mainly USA and Canadian - operations in 2012 and 2013. See also: ,Suzuki could have been just like Honda. What went wrong?, - “,"Making cars is like making music," says Peter Egan, a highly respected magazine columnist who has followed the vehicle industry for decades. "You need to make hits. Suzuki had bad timing, and they never came up with a hit car when they needed it most.",”. That means, putting both Suzuki’s automotive-centred business and as well its India-focused “Maruti-Suzuki” unit into decline would also help Tata Motors to go big time. Especially in other parts of the globe where Tata is neither selling cars in contrast to Hyundai-Kia, Nissan, Mazda, and Subaru, such as the ,Nordic countries of Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland,, and even the three ,Baltic countries of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania,, as neither of these eight Northern European countries are deeply well-known to some of the average Indian netizens especially here on Quora… That even means, if Tata would take over Toyota’s stakes in both Mazda and Subaru, therefore it would also help Tata Motors establish a beachhead in those eight aforementioned Northern European countries just as in a similar idea did by the ,Hyundai Motor Company, circa 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, see also: ,Larsen & Toubro - Wikipedia,. Fantasising the ,Tata Group, to purchase ,Mazda, and ,Subaru, from Toyota’s orbit, means Tata would sell off Jaguar-Land Rover to ,Tesla,, as a result of its [Tata’s] programme of acquiring the two aforementioned small-scale East Asian [Japanese] marques from Toyota. Therefore, expecting Tesla to acquire ,JLR, [from Tata] would just be in the same way Tata did to JLR after they [Tata] took the ,two British marques, from the ,Ford Motor Company, - via its already-defunct ,Premier Automotive Group division, - in 2008, which means It would help Tesla to leverage the ,running gears, which Tata Motors benefited from JLR’S cars such as the ,[Jaguar] E-Pace, and ,[Jaguar] I-Pace,, see also: ,Jaguar Land Rover car platforms - Wikipedia,. Especially, if Tesla - the California-based company which is currently led by a South African-born businessperson named ,Elon Musk, - would take over Jaguar-Land Rover from the Indians [Tata], then JLR would file itself for bankruptcy, thus reorganise all of its [JLR] properties into Tesla Inc as well. That means, as I mentioned about that earlier, Tesla would gain benefit from JLR’s chassis - as well as having the right to licence it - in order for them [Tesla] to build crossovers and SUVs of its [Tesla’s] own, just for them [Tesla] to make profits the same time expand everywhere like in India. And in addition to that, ,Nissan, alone should merge and share all architectures with the ,Hyundai Motor Group, instead, in order for them [Nissan] to bring its [Nissan’s] former glories back, until the time ,Hyundai [Motor Group], would end up treating Nissan just like the UK’s ,Vauxhall Motors, for their practise of rebadging and selling ,Opel, cars for the British market only... - ,Genda Nicolai Yturzaeta Iwakawa/awakawI ateazrutY ialociN adneG,, please apologise and respect me for this remark/reminder I made, to be continued since this mouthpiece I made is deeply LONG to read… See also: Vauxhall T98 - Zafira aka Subaru Traviq Japan - googleusercontent.com, - “Subaru is the automotive division Fuji Heavy Industries of Japan and was established on 07 July 1953 by founder Kenji Kita, the first Subaru car was produced in 1954. As with most Japanese car makers growth was initially slow but started to increase markedly during the 1960s with exports driving the majority of growth. During 1968 the Japanese government ordered the merging of sections of the Japanese auto industry started on the pretext of improving competitiveness, this was under the administration of Prime Minister Eisaku Sato. As a result Nissan took a 20% stake in Fuji Heavy Industries in order to utilize the company's bus manufacturing capability and also their expertise for use in Nissan's line of Diesel buses. In turn, many Subaru vehicles, would use parts from Nissan cars and therefore save duplicating development and production. The Subaru automatic transmission, known as the 4EAT, was also used in the first generation Nissan Pathfinder. Speculation has it that it was Subaru who introduced Renault to Nissan after Renault requested assistance from Subaru in all-wheel drive (AWD) technology. FHI told Renault to discuss their plans with Nissan and the discussions may have been a contributing factor to the currently successful Renault-Nissan alliance, although another factor might have been that, at the time of the takeover, Nissan were in a dire financial state.” - “Nissan's acquisition by Renault meant its 20.1% stake in Subaru was then sold to GM in 1999. Troy Clarke, of General Motors served as the representative to FHI on their corporate board. During that time, the Subaru Forester was sold as a Chevrolet Forester in India in exchange for the Vauxhall / Opel Zafira A being sold as the Subaru Traviq in Japan from 2001 to 2004 filling a gap in Subaru's range. The Subaru Traviq was released in August 2001 and was the first so called "Monobox-Van" that the company had offered, although they had produced plenty of micro vans that were popular in Japan, in fact the Traviq wasn't the first Subaru to have 3 rows of seats, the Subaru Sambar Domingo was first in 1983.” Please answer this: ,Dear car enthusiasts from other countries plus India: If Toyota would sell out Mazda and Subaru to the Tata Group, should the Indian conglomerate's eponymous "Tata Motors" unit hand over the stakes they own in Jaguar-Land Rover to Elon Musk's Tesla?
