Article Abstract:
A number of mass-market car manufacturers are looking to establish a presence in the top end of the market. Volkswagen, for example, has purchased Lamborghini and Bugatti, while Fiat is boosting the profile of Maserati. Large-scale mergers will characterize the car industry in the future, as they bring clear economies of scale and allow manufacturers to move easily into new market sectors. It is likely that top-of-the-range brands such as Jaguar and Mercedes will gradually develop into mainstream brands.
