Selling the most cars will eventually translate into making the best cars, with the compounding experience and network effects.

At the time the US was making the most cars in the world...quality varied widely, to be generous.

You'd think so, but also, Tesla.

They don’t sell anywhere near the most cars, and their market share is shrinking. They also are a very VERY young manufacturer. This isn’t the right example to use imo.

Maybe Jeep? Very popular, dogwater quality. They take nearly half of the Consumer Reports “top 10 worst cars on the road” almost every year.

It’s a theory for sure, but I don’t think that’s a common strategy for modern capitalism.

The motivations from the people at the top are the same. Minimal effort and maximum profit.
