Hyundai Ford in the Top of the Largest Global Automotive Manufacturers
Hyundai-Kia Group is currently the fourth largest manufacturer in the automotive world hierarchy, after the first half of 2009. But this year the top is not a result of loss of sales but more reduced. Also, Toyota is in danger of being outrun by GM, which recorded lower losses and increased production.
Hyundai completed the first two quarters of 2135 million vehicles sold, compared to only 2145 million sold by Ford.
First in the top 10 global manufacturers, Ford has recorded the highest number of sales in the first half of the year, a decline of 30.6% from the previous year.
Story violates the hierarchy of world production of 2009 does not end here. At onset of the year, GM and Toyota outrun her place in the ranking, becoming the biggest producer worldwide. According to figures, Toyota is ahead of GM with less than 12,000 units sold, compared to last year, when there are more than 200,000 units compared to the same competitor. At this time, sales of GM is 21.8% lower, compared to the Toyota company, which fell by 26%. And all this time waiting for a return to GM due to growth in production capacity by opening new assembly lines in factories in Lordstown, Ohio, Ontario and Canada.

Sales do not correspond directly to profit, Ford and conditions aligned to global market by decreasing production, which is another factor that has allowed Hyundai to get ranked 4 in the world standings, a place now occupied by the American company.
However, there is a rating rather tight, the first three manufacturers are in the top ten, being separated by a number of units sold so large as in previous years.
