Make and sell 2 cars sell them for $2000 profit, Or sell for less and sell 4 cars for $500 profit.
What Biz Model keeps more Line worker employed?

Profit isn't a bad thing, but you still need to offer cars in prices folks can afford. Offer a Quality Base model and let folks upgrade if they can afford it.

Just Like the Smart, Versa Cube, Soul. All of these cars offer a very afordable base model and a tricked out version if you have some extra cash.

GM right now has the Aveo, would anyone consider it if they had the extra cash? It doesn't offer an upscale version, they want you to move to a more expensive car all together.
