Essentially, ROI can be used as a rudimentary gauge of an investment’s profitability. This could be the ROI on a stock investment, the ROI a company expects on expanding a factory, or the ROI generated in a real estate transaction. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/returnoninvestment.asp For 60 years the Mini has been one of the symbols of British ingenuity, e

At least modern electric cars have (as far as I am aware) only one gear. And there is at least the Porsche Taycan with kind of a second gear. If building electric cars in the current build, is it worthwhile designing gearboxes with more than one gear? I know that electronic locomotives can have many gears, but the reasons for this do not really apply to small vehicles like cars (I think). I guess my questi

In all applications, this transmission is identified as the New Automatic Gearbox Generation Two, or NAG2. It initially debuted in Autumn 2003 on five different eight-cylinder models: the E500, S 430, S 500, CL 500, and SL 500. It also soon became available on many six-cylinder models. Turbocharged V12 engines, four-cylinder applications, and commercial vehicles continued to use the older Mercedes-Benz 5G-Tronic transmission for many years. The first DCT to reach production was the Easidrive automatic transmission introduced on the 1961 Hillman Minx mid-size car. This was followed by various Eastern European tractors through the 1970s (using manua

"Touring cars" are a type of open car that seats four or more people and is manufactured in the United States. From the early 1900s to the 1930s, the style was popular. Despite sharing the same name, the cars used in touring car racing in various series since the 1960s are unrelated to these early touring cars.

Emerson converts its venerable 2+2 coupe to a fully electric model in September 1986

Emerson converts its venerable 2+2 coupe to a fully electric model in September 1986 A 2+2 (also known as a 2-plus-2) is a car body style with two rear seats in addition to a seat for the driver and front passenger. In the latter, there may be individual "bucket" seats, fold-downs, or a full-width "bucketed" bench seat, but there is never as much legroom as in the front or a typical 2-door car. The design differs from conventional 4- or 5-seat vehicles in that the second-row 2+2 seating is typically only appropriate for children or occasional use. A buyout, as used in finance, is an investment transaction through which a company's own equity or the majority of its stock is purchased. By doing this, the acquirer "buys out" the target company's current equity holders. The buyer may also purchase the target company's outstanding debt, which they refer to as "assumed debt" in a buyout. #Manufacturing #buyout #Detroit #Michigan #Expansion
