2013雪佛兰迈瑞宝

    今年迈瑞宝的销量下滑了12%，所以通用又回到了设计台前想对它做点改动。不幸的是，通用对迈瑞宝拥挤的后排空间几乎无计可施。当年通用破产时，产品规划师让迈瑞宝和小型车共用一个平台，结果使迈瑞宝的轴距被迫缩短。这么干真够蠢的。现在要让它变大，成本会高得出奇，结果也让迈瑞宝在至关重要的中级车市场上处于不利地位。

2013 Chevy Malibu

    Malibu sales are down 12% so far this year, and GM is going back to the drawing board. Unfortunately, it can't do much with the Malibu's cramped rear seat. Back in its bankruptcy days, product planners shrank the Malibu's wheelbase by putting it on a platform it shares with a smaller car. Bad call. Growing it larger would be prohibitively expensive, leaving Malibu at a disadvantage in the important mid-size segment.
