    GM and the entire auto industry are currently challenged with the perfect storm. The auto industry is being hit by a weak US and global economy, rising fuel prices, and social and political environmental concerns and issues. In order to overcome these potential threat, GM should consider mass producing a range of alternative fueled vehicles, i.e. fuel cell, electric, and hybrid.

    The major competitors of General Motors are domestic companies like Damiler Chrysler & Ford Motor and foreign companies like Toyota Motor & Honda Motor

    Strengths
    1. Large Market Share Although GM's market share in the US has dropped it is still very much competitive at 26 percent. They also have an increasing share in the Chinese market. 2. Global Experience 3. Variety of Brand Names GM has been the automotive leader for the majority of the last century. A reason for that is the wide variety of quality brand names that appeal to all target markets. The current GM brands include: Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, Buick, Pontiac, Saturn, Hummer, Saab, Daewoo, Opel, and Holden.

    4. GMAC (General Motors Acceptance Corporation) Customer Financing Program Since its establishment in 1919 it has proven to be GM's most reliable source of revenue.
    5. On Star Satellite Technology Developed in 1996 On Star currently has over 3 million subscribers and is standard on all GM vehicles. This technology allows the vehicles to be tracked in the event of an emergency or theft. It also allows the driver and or passengers the ability to communicate with On Star personnel at the click of a button.

    1. Rising Fuel Prices

    With GM being a large producer in both trucks and SUV's, sales have drastically decreased due to the lack of fuel efficiency. The rise in fuel prices has played a significant role in creating the opportunity for development of both hybrid and more fuel efficient vehicles. 2. Growth of Competitors Toyota took the first step in the direction of hybrid technology and has since drastically grown and become the questionable automotive frontrunner to start the 21st century. 3. Pension Payouts. Part of this threat is their own doing and is simply unavoidable. GM is responsible for providing generous pension benefits to its employees, which at the time seemed like a great idea, however they are now experiencing problems as more and more people begin to collect.

    4. Increased Health Care Costs GM, like many large companies with quality employee health care benefits, is experiencing a large financial hit that only gets worse as time continues. 5. Rising Supply Costs, i.e. Steel This threat affects the entire automotive industry and forces each company to cut manufacturing and production costs as much as possible, without taking away from the quality of the product.

    The core competence of General Motors is innovation. In 1911, it conceptualized engineered and commercialized the self-starter engine for the first time. In 1926, its product Cadillac was the pioneer in devising a nationwide service strategy. In 1996 General Motors introduced On Star satellite technology. Other new car concepts include mini cars such as Chevy Aveo. However in the case of hybrid vehicles, General Motors was unable to keep up to the pace of the market demand

    Based on the GMs consolidate net sales and revenue, it shown that General Motor Corporation revenue has been falling to $ 192.6 billion in 2007 from 193.5 billion in 2004. GM incurred a consolidated net loss in 2007 of $ 10.6 billion, compared to net income of $ 2.8 billion in 2004. In the last 1990s, GM had regained market share up $ 80 a share. In 2000, the interest went up by the Federal Reserve to quell the stock market and a severe stock market decline following the September 11, 2001 attacks. Due to this factor, it affected a pension and benefit crisis at General motors and many other American companies. The current stock market price of General Motor sare falling between $28- $29 per share. It has been falling down gradually in the past six years General Motors North America market share in 2007 fell to 25.5% compared to 26.7 in 2004.Decreased in market share also due to sales declines in segment where GM has high volume such as large, sport, utilities, mid-sized, utilities, and midsized cars.
