Synopsis
In THE END OF DETROIT, the author argues that U.S. manufacturers missed a critical chance in the 1990s to win back the market for American-made cars. American manufacturers left themselves vulnerable to outpacing by foreign carmakers, she asserts, by putting too much emphasis on the high-profit SUV and truck markets. She also discusses the greater innovation and superior strategies that helped these foreign interests take the lead.

Publisher's Note

An in-depth, hard-hitting account of the mistakes, miscalculations and myopia that have doomed America’s automobile industry.

In the 1990s, Detroit’s Big Three automobile companies were riding high. The introduction of the minivan and the SUV had revitalized the industry, and it was widely believed that Detroit had miraculously overcome the threat of foreign imports and regained its ascendant position. As Micheline Maynard makes brilliantly clear in THE END OF DETROIT, however, the traditional American car industry was, in fact, headed for disaster.
