Multiple Choice

What sets a great car apart from a good one now is not the quality, which is assumed, but performance, safety and fuel economy. A car that can achieve all three is highly sought after. In the automotive market, performance, safety and fuel economy are sterling examples of:

• A) order winners.
• B) a needs assessment.
• C) order qualifiers.
• D) a mission statement.
