The line graph presents information on the average number of hours spent on car production for four different car brands in the US between 1998 and 2005.
Overall, it can be clearly seen that the average time spent by all four car manufacturers saw downward trends over the period. While General Motor and Ford decreased significantly showing similar results, there was a slight fall with some fluctuations in the production of Toyota and Honda vehicles.

Subsequently, there was a considerable decrease in the manufacture of General Motors, ranging from 32 hours to 24 hours between 1998 and 2004, until reaching a low of 22 hours by 2005. Initially, Ford witnessed a gradual rise to roughly 31 hours, until declining significantly to below 22 hours by the end of the year.
