Today's Practice GMAT Question:
|
As part of a plan to overhaul a car company's lagging sales due to its image as environmentally irresponsible, consultants recently proposed the release of a new car line. The new line of small, high-mileage and hybrid vehicles would appeal to a set of consumers who would never have previously considered buying from the company. In that way, the company could easily retain the market for its traditional vehicles while tapping into a new market niche and expanding its revenue base. Which of the following, if true, would most strongly support the consultants' proposal? |
|
| (A) | The majority of cars currently manufactured by the company are large and are not known for their fuel efficiency. |
| (B) | A reliable survey of the company's previous customers showed that most of them would more strongly consider buying from the company again if it offered hybrid vehicles. |
| (C) | Car sales for all companies have lagged in the last two years, but are expected to increase in the next six months. |
| (D) | A new focus on small, high-mileage, and hybrid vehicles would require research and development investment greater than the company's CEO has made in his tenure to date. |
| (E) | As most car companies develop small, high-mileage, and hybrid vehicles, the profit margins in this competitive arena are expected to shrink. |
