Why is the Santana so cheap now?

[VanCaden]

Reduction in costs is a significant factor affecting the price of car models. Production costs: This mainly includes labor costs and mechanical costs. When mechanization was not yet widespread, car manufacturing was a relatively difficult task, relying on some machines to construct certain components. The development was far from today's mechanized factories, requiring a large amount of manpower for various aspects of car assembly. At that time, labor costs were very high. Now, replacing the past labor-intensive car manufacturing model has led to breakthroughs in both precision and efficiency. Material costs: The level of material costs is actually closely related to research and development technology. The selection, forging, and manufacturing methods of materials greatly affect material wastage.
