Smallers cars drive towards big time

Article Abstract:

Toyota Motors and Ford Motor have launched their latest entries in the small-car market. Ford is positioning its Focus three-door model for the under-29 market, and is using restaurant and bar advertising, campus activities and the mass media to promote the car. Toyota is targetting a wider age range for its Echo model, and is avoiding strong youth imagery to avoid isolating the older, loyal Toyota buyers.
