Among them is General Motors, the largest U.S. automaker. GM stopped selling cars in India in 2017, after years of declining market share. Watch this video to find out why automakers, including GM, struggle in India.

    Western Youtube Channel India starterpack 1. Taj Mahal 2. Slums of Mumbai 3. Overcrowded trains
  • @mobilebull
    Number one reason is 1. Bad after sales service 2. No introduction of new models. 3. Fuel consumption.
  • @flyingbee231
    Product: Blunt old designs Price: At par with competition Place: less number service stations Promotion: only model Beat and Cruze were noticed by people.
  • Why Everyone in west media shows very old and narrow streets or local market when talked about India . It is stereotype thinking. India have massive amout of clean highway and good road infrastructure.
  • @zwonaka95
    The title should be... "How is GM surviving in the USA"
  • the main reason was that they didn't launched new cars from many years and the existing cars were also very old models whereas other companies were providing better features and better looks at that price.
  • Gm never brought new models. They were selling old models in India .. Look at MG hector and Kia . They are flourishing.
  • @twinturbo5970
    guy; we r divided into rural and urban india cnbc: dont worry we only show rural india
  • @sharadjain2463
    Western media's slum love is amazing I think if Dharavi or other slums in mumbai get redeveloped in coming future then probably it will be an excruciating experience for Western media 😁😁
  • @rangerswing
    maybe stop selling chinese vehicles rebadged as chevy.
  • @XxMIKExFAILZxX
    GM: Why are we failing in other countries??? Every country: whispers fuel efficiency, great prices, and space efficiency...
  • @ajit555
    I was in love with GM Cruze, but my wife put some sense in my brain to buy Mahindra XUV 500 top end for the same price. After a couple of years, GM closed down in India, got saved by my wife :)

    IMHO, GM struggles globally because it is, culturally, a provincial, midwestern U.S. company. I recall reading interviews with GM executives in the 1970s who described Mercedes and BMW as "over-engineered." How did that work out for them? Similarly, they were perplexed that they couldn't sell Impalas in Tokyo. Ford is a less provincial company and has had more success worldwide.

    Before talking about other people’s failures , make sure to put up the correct map of India . Such a big organisation and making such kiddish mistakes
  • @bigboss337
    A better title should be: why are GM cars pretty much failing everywhere?
  • @vivekh9568
    Because they failed to select me in interview and missed out the real worth guy. Their bad luck and R.I.P . 🥴
  • @Dipali27
    7:38 first use a correct map of India or else even CNBC can be a failure in India . Such a big organization and you are making such kiddish mistakes
