What's confusing is that some great auto brands from Europe are under Stellantis (Peugeot and Citroen at least)

And they're actually not doing a shitty job in designing or selling their vehicles. It's mainly the Chrysler brands or basically the US brands under Stellantis. I seriously hope the shit happening in Chrysler doesn't come trickling down to the other brands

Turns out regulations are good for businesses.

Regulations are definitely excellent for both businesses and consumers in the long term. But businesses are often too stupid to see past ANYTHING "quarterly".

That depends on the business culture and how good their advisors are. And also the size if the business matter.

But yeah generally angelosaxton companies who have a mangement structure that’s way more in depth than it needs to be fuck these things over

They're good for longevity, but they're bad for quarterly profits. In the US, we care much more for the latter.

Peugeot and Citroën have their own issues in Europe (and technically in America) with the recall of car due to defective airbags.
