OOC: This isn’t a regular storefront. Basically what you do here is just post however many of my cars are sold in your nation per year and I’ll note that in my stats. Note, the following (Van Luxembourg is due credit for this):
(OOC: About car sales: There were about 220,000 cars sold in The Netherlands last year. That's on a nation of 16 million people. in the US, 16.5 million cars were sold in 2006. That's for a nation of 300 million people. Just to give you an idea of the total car sales of a nation, so you can calculate your own.)

Allanean Arms Sandstorm
Where the Allanean Arms Firestorm provided the commercial and small-business market with an off-road-capable car to call their own, the Snowstorm is now going for the families – urban, suburban, and rural.
Have a large family? Want to drive your children to the soccer game?
Then the Snowstorm is the way to go – with a comfortable seven-seat capacity, this mid-size SUV is the thing for you. And with five-point seat belts for every child and anti-turnover electronic-guided suspension, your children are safe in an Allanean Arms product – even as our DVD players and MP3 player make sure they’ll never get bored.
Want to go off-road and enjoy nature?
Yet again, with the new Allanean Arms Ultragear suspension, the Snowstorm is the thing for you. Not only that – it is designed to use environmentally-friendly fuels such as biodiesels, ethanol, methanol, SVO, and so forth. Further it has an embedded gun rack and weapons mount for the dedicated hunters among us.
Want to start a taxi/jeepney service?
Fuel-efficient means cheap.
Reliable means cheap.
And being able to haul six people in one go means money – money for you, that is. Allanean Arms has established a special hotline for people looking to purchase Sandstorms for police fleets, armed forces, corporate vehicle fleets – whatever. You name it, we’ve got it.
Want to take your buddies to the beach?
The Allanean Arms Sandstorm is not just equipped with a nice surfboard rack. We have a special low, low rate arrangement with the Allanean Mulligan Bank for loans for the young people. Allanean Arms will ensure that college students and generally people aged from the driving age to 22 can easily purchase these cars, with not only loans, but special discounts arranged.

Arist’s impression of the DAA-1
DAA-1(Developing Area Automobile):
This vehicle has originally been designed by Van Luxemburg’s VLT, due to a joint Allanean Arms and Department of State project to develop an ultra-cheap car that could be marketed in developing and economically struggling areas.
The DAA-1, following correct VLT Automotive naming the 910i, as being the 9th line, with a 1.0 engine.t is equipped with a 1.0 litre engine, boasting some 61 HP, at 4000 RPM. The vehicle is capable of reaching 120 Km/H. The exterior of the vehicle, which has the looks of a stationwagon, has been entirely made of sheet metal, while no airbags have been placed inside, to supress costs. Also, the radio, airconditioning, floormats and other luxurious equipment has been put away in favour of cheap plastic and fabric. Only luxury the vehicle has been equipped with is a heating for both the engine and the interior, to ensure the vehicle will be able to start.
The engine is modified to accept a wide range of fuels, to ensure the car can be kept driving at all times. It has been tested under the most extreme environments, such as tundras or Sahara sand. Also, the car has undergone extensive anti-corrosion treatments, to ensure the car can endure for a long time in difficult environments. The vehicle has been put higher on it's springs, so it can endure under harsh environments in muddy and bad terrain, or badly-serviced roads
.
With the development of the DAA-1, designers have been ordered to make the car as useful a possible. Therefore, a stationwagon-like design has been favoure dover that of a hatchback or sedan. To ensure maximum load capacity, the back of the vehicle has been equipped with two doors next to eachother, instead of the standard boot.
The vehicle has been designed originally by VLT Automotives
Fuel: Bio-Diesel/Ethanol/Hydrogen/Diesel/Euro/Super
Power: 61 HP at 4000RPM
Drive: FourWD
Topspeed: 120 KM/H
0-100 KM/H: 17.1 s
Luxuries: MWahahahaha!
Cost: $5000, $6000 for version with safety belts and airbags.
DAA-2
Up to this point, MassPwnage had been importing the Developing Area Automobile from Allanea for the past six decades.
The Developing Area Automobile seemed almost perfect. It was rugged, strongly built and simple to maintain. You could simply take a hose to the interior if it ever got dirty. Biggest problem was the engine. The inline-4 under its hood, was simple to maintain and cheap to make, but it made a positively anemic 95 kilowatts, not enough to pull yourself out of a deep sinkhole in the back country or get decent speed on the superhighways in MassPwnage's cities.
Finally, MP Motor Works managed to talk the Allaneans into building their own assembly line in Daducheng. Of course, many of the parts were made in MassPwnage, cutting costs to domestic consumers. The engine, a turbocharged boxer 8 was Pwnage made, and it produced more than 190 kilowatts, twice the power of the old engine. Of course, a new transmission had to be built, rather stolen, off of the Allanean Rhinoceros, but finally, the Developing State Automobile could get up to proper highway speeds, and the heavier transmission lowered the car's center of gravity, making it much more stable and less likely to flip over in an accident.
Common Pwnage additions to the DSA usually included an all-metal roof, power steering, bull bars on the front (for those nasty collisions with roadkill), an expanded radiator (because it gets really really fucking warm in MP), a waterproof radio, seat belts, head restraints and airbags.

OOC: In the Firestorm thread I mentioned that cartoons caricaturing the country gentry were beginning to depict them driving Firestorms. Now, I am a rather poor cartoonist as it turns out, but I had a go at drawing one... the truck is horrible, I grant, but there is meant to be an "AA" on the hood, so presumably it depicts a Firestorm of some sort.

However, your corporation must comply with all Londinian laws when operating in our territory and mustn't commit any actions that would imperil the national security of the country as a whole.
If you accept our terms, we would like to purchase 10,000 DAAs to distribute to refugees and other individuals lacking motor transport in the wake of the Democide.

A very nice start. We will happily ship these cars to you. Tell us, would we be allowed to sell them in BL? Our partners in Mulligan Bank will happily provide microcredits to those willing to buy them.
Also please send estimate of how many cars you think we can sell per annum.

OOC: Thanks. I'll be selling DAA's and build up a customer base - I'm sure your country will be buying better cars when it gets back on it's feet. Also assume Mulligan bank is out there giving out microcredits.

Very well. Say, how many various vehicles would sell in your nation per year?
OOC: Why does none read the first post?
DAA-1s sell briskly in Barkozy, when they're available. Being more reliable, comfortable, and safe than the cheap hilux-clones, people who can afford them(seeing how importers can and do mark things up considerably) try to get them over domestic vehicles. However, importers are still not able to meet demand for the new vehicles and sales are around 45,000 a year.

Motoring Weekly
Page 4, column 6: "General Motoring News"
In other news, foreign company Allanean Arms continues to attempt to establish a stronghold in the Relorian market. As imports of the Firestorm continue to underperform, two additional models have since been imported - the AA Sandstorm, and the budget AA DAA.
Particularly popular (for an Allanean product, at least) is the Sandstorm - with an optimistic projection of 300,000 to 350,000 per annum sales figure, with market analysts predicting that its sales will ultimately settle on the 450,000 per annum mark if franchised dealerships can continue to keep up this pace. Its (slightly) smaller size and (slightly) lower running costs compared to the Firestorm have contributed to its popularity, and its (slightly) more conservative image also has an effect, although it is still considered to be a 'very large' vehicle in general.
The DAA is Allanean Arms' attempt to create a 'budget car', although it seems to entail a similarly large vehicle with many features stripped out. A car without air conditioning is not expected to sell well during the hot summer months, although analysts believe it may break the 100,000 sales figure when winter sets in. After that, sales face a steep climb that will become highly dependent on an effective marketing strategy and dealer offers.
The multinational automotive company continues to lack any offerings in the highly competitive small car market - with market leader Venetta producing figures of some 6,000,000 per annum on its 'Redoubt' supermini model alone. Public perceptions of Allanean Arms remain low, and many image-conscious customers tend to avoid the socially dubious brand completely.

StreetWize
After the low sales of other Allanean cars in Reloria made it evident that new vehicles were needed to make Allanean cars sell really well in countries like Reloria or Knootoss. As such, this is the smallest vehicle made by Allanean Arms throughout its entire his history (excluding indoor combat tanks).
The vehicle is not only affordable to drive due to the low fuel costs – it is also affordable to buy. As a vehicle aimed at the young generation, the StreetWize costs only about 12,500 Universal Standard Dollars.
Just as it’s bigger brothers in the Allanean Arms, the vehicle is capable of outdoor use, and can be used for hunting, fishing, and similar exploits, though it is adviseable to use it for commercial implementations.
It is capable of utilizing various ‘green’ fuels’, such as biodiesel, ethanol, and SVO, and can be ordered with a hybrid engine.

Official Press Release from Allanean Arms, Incorporated
Ladies and gentlemen, we are hereby pleased to announce the release of our new civilian pickup-truck into the international market – the Allanean Arms Firestorm. Based on venerable automotive designs, the Firestorm combines new-era luxury and old-style ruggedness.
What, then, is the Firestorm?
The Firestorm is an off-road vehicle:
Boasting an enormous 6-liter 450-horsepower engine, the Firestorm is perfect for the outdoorsman, the hunter, the tourist. Just like the Ruger Ram, it also holds compartments in the truck bed for carrying hunting equipment, defensive firearms or fishing rods, or, alternatively, photo and video cameras and other sensitive gear.
The Firestorm is a work vehicle:
Perfect for farmers and small businesses, the Firestorm can carry 6,000 pounds of gear on it's own and has a maximum towing capacity of 35,000 pounds.
The Firestorm is a safe vehicle:
Not only is the Firestorm rugged and reliable, providing it with extremely good crash and safety records in single-driver accidents (the most common kind of them), it is also equipped with roll bars – that is, in the event of rollovers, passengers are far more likely to survive.
Furthermore, it is an environmentally-sensitive vehicle. It's diesel engine is capable of running on methanol and SVU, and thus making it a zero-net-emission vehicle.
The Firestorm is a family vehicle:
The vehicle is also good for use by the whole family – with seating for six people, the truck is capable of accommodating most families – and it has all the creature comforts needed for the job, including three DVD players for the 'are we there yet' generation.

Allanean Arms Spearhead
Allaneans have always been famous for their motto "if all else fails, use more resources." In some countries, 'Allanea' is the word for 'overkill' in the local language. For some people, this is always a negative. There is nothing, they say, that can be good about the Allanean approach.
These people are dead wrong.
Take, for example, the Spearhead. Designed initially to work as an army tank transporter, this immense semitrailer truck is everything the large-scale cargo hauler might ever need. With an utterly deranged cargo hauling capacity of 100 tons, it can carry a trailer, and practically anything you need moved on it – up to an including a Nakil 1A2 main battle tank. But the truck is also great for civilian businesses.
Want to move eighty tons of bricks all at once?
A super-refrigerator trailer full of cold fish or ice cream?
Lots and lots and lots of fuel?
Raw sand for construction?
Allanean Arms' Spearhead can do that, and then some more.
We sell them both to major corporations and to independent truckers.
And for the latter, our cabin has more personal comfort then ever before – two comfortable cots to sleep on while resting on those long hauls, a DVD player for your partner, a full-out media suit replete with immense loudspeakers for your Metallica or your rap, and of course an air conditioner.
The Spearhead is all-climate suitable, guaranteed to work both in the deserts of Barronia and in the frozen wastes of the Havenic Arctic.

USSW Department of Commerce Reports: Automotive Sector (Private), Second Quarter; Re: Allanean Imports Market
Currently, although demand is variable depending on the specific product, Allanean Arms is making steady gains as the current most-popular vehicle manufacturer and dealer in Wagdog. This is not only due to the known ruggedness and over-the-top capability of these vehicles, but also due to improving relations in the political field; with many citizens starting to see purchase of an Allanean vehicle as a 'patriotic' move, considering the widespread anti-Doomani sentiment shared with Allanea in this nation due to the Imperium Doomanum's links to slavery and other egregious human-rights abuses.
Aside from the Firebolt hyperbike, whose sales figures have already been publicly detailed in recent WIBC News investigative reporting, the most-sold vehicle from the AA product line is by far the StreetWize mini-SUV. Wagdog being a heavily-urbanized archipelago nation, even with a well-developed road network, this small truck/large car is often considered ideal. Sales of 80 million per year are expected on average, with that amount having already been reached this year alone.
By contrast, the Developing Area Automobile line is not doing very well in the Wagdian SUV market; although still sold well-enough within rural island areas to remain profitable for local dealerships. Currently annual DAA sales are projected at 5 million, and this looks sustainable absent a major economic hiccup related to war or other forms of catastrophe. Of these, all sold are DAA-1s. The Firestorm is far more popular in this market, initial sales at a healthy 15 million and sustained being estimated at 10 million per year under ideal market conditions; due to its generally-better features and image compared to the DAA series.
Sandstorm sales are also healthy, roughly falling between the StreetWize and Firestorm in both results and projections. Some 20 million have been sold so far, and estimates of a sustained 15 million per year are considered reasonable under currently-foreseeable economic conditions. However, demand for the Spearhead is particularly exemplary considering the Wagdian market's size. So far, 50 million have been sold; and with the Red Army expressing interest in this design as a natural tank or bulk-cargo transporter to replace older Soviet-pattern vehicles in that class, those figures could easily rise to 75 million per annum.
All-told, although there is still room in the Wagdian automotive market for products of all nations, right now they face stiff competition from Allanean Arms on both qualitative and quantitative grounds. Sheer popularity, due both to consumer and political factors, seems to be working in AA's favor here as the recent massive expansion of trade between Wagdog and Allanea continues at full steam. Currently, the only automotive niche markets left relatively untouched are those for sedans and limousines, where no company has an advantage although interest in possible import of VLT products is the topic of widespread rumor.

TO: Allanean Arms CEO
FROM: Caesar Jason Scotus Lupus, His Royal Baddass
The only thing bad about not allowing foreign companies on the soil of the United Dominion is that my people don’t get to paid vehicles like those made by Allanean Arms. The only ways is to paid the huge amount of money to import one car after filling out stacks of paper. I know because I have done it a few times like I did to get my Firebolt.
Anyways, this letter isn’t for me to talk about my nation’s law, it is an offer to sale Allanean Arms through Timber Wolf Autos dealerships throughout the United Dominion. The only catch is that your company ships the cars, but will only get 75% of the money from the sale and the rest will go to the Timber Wolf Autos dealerships.
By doing this, it will help bring Allanean Arms civilian vehicles into the United Dominion. I have feeling that millions of Firebolts, Firestorms, and other vehicles will be sold each year when the deal is signed.
So…do we have a deal?

"Under this arrangement, we would receive practically no profit on most of our vehicles, and would in fact lose money on some of the models. However, we would like to sugged a different arrangement - namely one, under which you would add a 15% surcharge to the MSRP of any car sold in your dealerships. Under this principle, you would receive both our standard dealership fee (which is already included in MSRP - and the surcharge sum in it's entirety, and would get off very rich indeed in the deal."
Official Allanean Arms announcement
Even as the drums of war beat louder and louder, the Allanean Arms company becomes interested in purchasing factories and companies abroad. As such, messengers have been sent to the famous Juumanistran companies Himou Defense Labs and Minadouki Arms: Allanean Arms was interested in buying them out completely, and hoisting the Allanean Arms corporate flag from their factories and offices in Juumanistra.

Lightning van.
While the world’s armament producers spit out 200-million stealth fighter, Allanean Arms is securing another market altogether – the market for commercial vans. And, as usual, they are trying something a bit crazy.
We have here the new Allanean Arms van – the Lightning, also known in MassPwnage as the Acid Trip Van for reasons completely unknown to the Allanean PR crews. Nevertheless – the Lightning/Acid Trip Van is just awesome.
What is the “Acid Trip Van”? Well, this is the usual Allanean approach – take a working vehicle and make sure it also works as a wonderful grown man’s toy.
As usual with Allanean equipment, it is powered by a universal diesel engine capable of feeding on alternative fuels such as SVO, Biodiesel, and so forth, pumping out 350 horsepower. This makes it an excellent work vehicle for small-business owners – who, as we all know, are the backbone of society.
But it’s more then just a work vehicle. It comes in both family van and work van options. All the seats are of the ergonomic, orthopedic-design SuperBack V3.0 model, developed at the Allanean Arms Medical Services Unit – and in fact include a magnetic massage system, which means driving the van actually improves you health!
The four-wheel drive and powerful engine mean that the Acid Trip Van is not just a very healthy workhorse. It is an off-road capable toy for grown men, and it shows. Not only can you use it to drive the brats to school or the neighborhood airsoft game, you can cross the San-Nereiana desert with it and feel just fine!
The van is equipped with facilities for a WiMax internet connection (2.5 mbps), DVD players with screens for all passengers, and a large 35-inch screen to be lowered and used when the vehicle is static (it blocks the front window). Further, it is equipped with a mini-fridge for your… yes, soda cans. Really, soda cans. We were not thinking of beer. At all. Whatsoever. Drunk driving is bad, okay?
In countries where demand exists, it also comes with compartments for rifles and pistols for the driver and passengers.
Engine: 6.5L V8 Universal Diesel.

De Huzman Hyperia
]From the McLaren F1, to the Bugatti Veyron, to SSC's Aero, the supercar is prevalent in today's rich-famous-or-just-goddamn-indulgent society. The lifestyles of the elite in this virtual caste-system demand expensive displays of their power and wealth.
And never has there been a better time for supercars. After the Aero, supercars were being designed and churned out every eight months! Performance limitations seemed to disappear off the grid as engineers made better and better cars. The problem, however, began to arise when the standard combustion engine began to encounter exponentially increasing heat output, coupled with ungodly fuel consumption that topped off with Yorkfield Auto Manufacturing Company's Schrieberg supercar - a 540 kph monstrosity whose fuel economy was measured in gallons per mile.
The advent of electric cars solved a set of big problems. Having quiet, cold motors that naturally accelerated fast and came out clean as a whistle, with excellent output on a single charge, the electric supercar was adopted very nicely in nations such as Perimeter Defense, who in particular pioneered the design of the first electric supercar. Sevigny's "Teslawagen" was an amazing success despite it being the first of its kind; it was a 490 kph vehicle capable of 0-100kph in 1.6 seconds. On a single charge at 72V, with ampere-hours in the hundreds, a Teslawagen made 400 miles at half its top speed before reverting to a series of low-end solar motors that were embedded in the drivetrain.
Now, the 2031 de Guzman Hyperia, named after the late Princess Hyperia (who was one of the co-founders of de Guzman Automotive), has risen up to be the challenger that shall again change the face of the supercar tradition.
The Hyperia's power plant is a radial-looking engine, known as the Kardinall-Pearson i24 Hammerfest, comprising 24 electric motors, with a totaled output of 1700 horsepower. For an unloaded Hyperia, the i24 provides the locomotive capacity to bring the supercar to a maximum speed of 720 kilometers per hour. Owing to its absolute supremacy over other vehicles of similar role, the Hyperia has a different acceleration standard unit - it can go from 0-150kph in 1.4 seconds; its 0-150 acceleration rate is therefore faster than the Teslawagen's 0-100.
The Hyperia's curb weight is 1400 kilograms - markedly heavy for a car of its class. Its all-wheel steering system is influenced by computer-controlled microbrakes along the body skirt that give it godly turn rates at even maximum speed. Hundreds of high-range control surfaces across the body, coupled with advanced sensory equipment, represent the first implementation of mass-variable geometry in a car, each segment rising or lowering dynamically in accordance with windage, air resistance effects, and fast blade element analysis performed by the car's computers, the overall surface geometry being updated once every 0.12 seconds. Several fixed templates for geometry also exist as settings in the computer, one of which provides aerodynamic downforce at over 400 kph that would allow the Hyperia to race on an inverted track.
The extremely balanced braking system is a combination of pulsed electromagnets against the wheels (which have several magnetic elements embedded), a normal disc brake on the wheels, and a spoiler-cum-airbrake reminiscent of the Bugatti Veyron's. This spoiler, when deployed at maximum speed, provides the braking force of an average street car's brakes. Tested at 580 kph, a Hyperia will hit zero in nine seconds. The balanced nature of the brakes will also cause the car to remain in a perfectly straight path as it slows down.
Finally, the Hyperia comes with a limited edition Sony Envisia Holographic Display, a Bose-Hoffman 20.2-channel speaker system, all current types of WLAN, and a coffee warmer, as well as an optional gun rack in the back, and shotgun/pistol slot between the seats.
The de Guzman Hyperia is worth $3.4 million. There will be 24-hour customer service available at any time, a lifetime warranty, and eased insurance for countries where the maximum speed of the Hyperia is illegal.
The Guzman Hyperia design was purchased by Allanean Arms from Perimeter defense, and now is delivered at ANY COUNTRY with Allanean Arms dealerships.

Allanean Arms Ultima
Allaneans have always been fans of the famed Unimog series of multipurpose light trucks, and it is thus rather obvious Allanean Arms would eventually spawn their own Unimog ripoff. And thus was born the Allanean Arms Ultima, a 'light' truck capable of carrying up to 12,000 pounds of equipment, and crossing even the harshest terrain. It has won the Army's contract for this class of trucks, and is extensively sold to civilians.

As the Allanean Arms company has recently made a huge buck – grabbing five trillion dollars from a foreign nation for DPR for a particular paramilitary product that it had, the company had decided to plow the money into massive advertisement campaigns all over the world – but two countries in particular benefited from them.
* * *
In Derscon, stern-looking, harsh Dersconi men (naturally, only Dersconi were hired to be models) were featured in ads, driving a variety of Sandstorm (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=12760734&postcount=2) series light SUV's across the snowed plains of Dersconi Russia. The image projected was that of the tough Dersconi man, who respects the taiga even when he braves its harsh weather. Small print explained that the Sandstorm operates through the use of alternative fuels and is endorsed by the Allanean Conservation Society.
Full spreads in Dersconi trucking magazines trumpeted the Spearhead semitrailer trucks (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=12783565&postcount=25) as 'The Solution for the Businessman and Independent Trucker' – with the same image of Tough Dersconi Men driving it.
One hundred million dollars was spend on the ad campaign alone, and an equal number was given to movie producers in the nation if they would agree to put the various Allanean Arms vehicles in their shows and films.

In Crookfur, a simple ad would be beamed into millions of TV screens across the nation. Here, the brand was virtually unfamiliar – and thus, an entire billion dollars had to be spent on a non-stop marketing blitz. The ad hit the radio and Internet sites in the country as well.
When you hear Allanean Arms, you think bomber jets. Knives. Guns. Battleships. And there's a good reason for that. That’s because for generations, our company has prided itself on producing reliable, quality arms for brave men and women across the world.
But the truth is, the bulk of our income these days comes from civilian products.

In Questers, it was the hardest. Since Allanea had only recently left NATO, trade relations were still problematic – and so, the company had to work on it's image. Ten billion dollars were donated to various Questarian charities. Half as much was spent on advertisements – banner ads on Questarian website, television, radio, everything. And of course, not a single Allanean featured in ads.
The focus was always on traditional Questarian imagery – families sitting down for tea or sake (depending were the ad ran), and the son or daughter arriving slightly late in their brand new car (naturally, an Allanean Arms car).
A key feature of the company's charity work seemed to be the donation of vehicles to emergency services. Very soon – if Questarians accepted – Allanean Arms' made police cars and ambulances would start appearing on the streets. The idea was simple – let the company be associated with the people who take the kitten off the tree, not the people who torched London.

Questers
24-05-2008, 15:08
The most popular vehicle in Questers by far is the DAA - receiving high sales and perhaps 500,000 owners in the sticks, where lower-middle class people who aren't farmers tend to need trucks and SUVs to navigate to get to work, if they live in the country. The DAA-2 is more popular, but usually Questarians "refit" - (the Navy never leaves anything in this country) their DAAs with more luxuries, though. With a market of perhaps growing into 80,000 sales a year, the Questarian market is pushing for a DAA with perhaps just a few more luxuries in it, as well as a custom gun rack.
Derscon, like Allanea, was a speed limit free nation (minus the occasional school zone). Dersconi also enjoyed their environment, which is why electric cars were so commonplace, even if Derscon could produce enough oil to have gas prices under a Xelmark per gallon.
Such is why the De Huzman Hyperia supercar, even with its high price, did so well in Derscon, selling just over three million annually.
The Dragon X V2.0 supercar didn't do so well, selling just about twenty thousand, but let's face it -- driving a car with a tank engine is pretty epic.
For the most part, though, the Sandstorm was the biggest seller, topping out at twenty million. However, most Dersconi expressed their concern that they did not have electric or hybrid engines, so most had them switched out at various dealerships. A deal was in the works with AA to make an electric or hybrid variant of the Sandstorm.
Official Response from Allanean Arms
We are pleasantly surprised by the sucess of our products in Derscon. Adjustments in corporate policy to better accomodate the Dersconi consumer are imminent.

The Ekonomist
Your source for in depth economic analysis and insight
In figures out a release of the company's quarterly earnings report, Alliance Arms based in the United States of Allanea, has increased its share of the Ichkerian auto market by an additional 11% over the last quarter. Sales of the corporate giant's SUV's and semis have risen steadily over the last few years since the company made its reentry into the Ichkerian auto market. Figures show sales totaling 99,000 a year. This is up from 11,000 per year just four years ago.
Although Alliance Arms is growing in popularity among consumers it still faces enormous competition from Ichkerian automotive companies and more established foreign companies such as the highly popular luxery car maker, VLT Automotive. Nevertheless figures from this latest quarterly report show a healthy increase of market share for this newcomer to the growing Ichkerian auto market.
In a related story Ichkerian scrap yard owners from Zorathu to Valanok are noticing an increase of profit with the greater quantity of Allanean vehicles on the road. They say the shorter lifespan of lower end Allanean vehicles helps to keep the local scrap business healthy as more high end Ichkerian and VLT cars tend to last longer..

"Treneska Times
A regional study concluded that the Allanean-designed "Turtle" Utility Truck is one of the most popular vehicles with City Works and nearby farmers, alongside Ural-375 trucks and similar vehicles. It is estimated that approximately 3,000 of the Turtle have been imported, and a regular flow of spare parts are on the market, both foreign and domestically produced. Another vehicle from the same company, known as the DAA-1, is a fairly common vehicle, and numbers up to 11,000 annually. The primary users are the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Exclusion Zone Research teams, though retired vehicles are seen in civilian hands, often upgraded with minimal safty features."
With the collapse of the imperial government, new corporations and businesses sprung up almost instantaneously to find a spot in the recently created power vacuum.
Thus, as Derscon was a completely free market society, many new faces could be found on the "Millionaires of Derscon" listings, with a few bumping up to the Billionaire spot.
And so far, Allanean Arms Vehicles made out nicely because of it. No one else in the world could satisfy the Dersconi desire for sleekness, speed, and efficiency like Allanea could with the De Huzman Hyperia.
Another two million managed to find themselves in the garages and collections of newly made millionaires and upper class Dersconi, of various colours and customizations.
Along with the extra purchases, several anonymous businessmen have donated a reported ten million Xelmarks to AAV to aid in the development of an affordable electric car that wouldn't sacrifice the performance levels of a standard combustion engine.
