"At the same time production time per car has fallen from 110 hours to 40 hours with a target of 30 hours (lean production)."

I wonder how much of the total cost of a car is represented by the assembly labor? And how much more of the cost of a C900 is in the thicker steel?...and of course, how much was saved by not redesigning the thing every 2 years...
I also remember, vaguely, that saab used to have 'teams' buld a car, rather than straight assembly line production. Or maybe I dreamed it...
