Globalisation and the car industry


A few weeks ago (Saturday 27th January) I posted about globalisation and gave you a few links to resources on the subject which feature on the BBC website. Since then they have put up a few new pages specifically about the global car industry.

Here, for example is a pie chart showing the source of cars sold in the US in 1955 and, for comparison, a similar graph for 2005.

If you click on either of the graphs, you will link to the relevant page of the BBC website and be able to explore the topic further.
There is also a linked article here about Toyota production in the US.
