Band 5+: The chart below gives information on the amount of time taken to manufacture a vehicle by four US-based car producers between 1998 and 2002. Provide an overview of the information by identifying and describing the key details, and include comparisons where appropriate.

The line graph presents data on the amount of time spent to produce a means of transport by different US-based car manufacturers from 1998 to 2002.

Overall, the chart consistently witnessed a decline in four car producers, Nissan can be expected to reach a peak over time but it had been decreased. Additionally, DC and Ford experienced a fluctuation before starting to fall.

On the one hand, as can be seen from the graph, around 40 hours is needed to produce a car from the Nissan brand, but it started to fall down to one day. Meanwhile, the amount of time for Ford’s production vehicle approximately 24 hours per car. Similarly, Ford and DC significantly observed a steady growth and decrease, they both increased marginally after 1999 and then decreased to roughly 30 hours to produce those Ford and DC cars.

On the other hand, after experiencing a fall, Nissan conveniently produced a car for 20 hours in a day, indicating that they manufactured faster than any previous brands. Lastly, GM had started to decrease in 1998 and also had the same amount of time producing cars with Nissan. In 2002, GM became the second fastest manufacturer to create cars after Nissan.
