Yes they have lost less money than Ford has over the last few years, but they haven't been profitable, but they sell a lot more cars so thats hardly a win is it.
Ford outsold Hyundai and Mazda last year, but supply issues cost them dearly in Jan with Ranger, Mondeo and hail damaged Falcon and Territory.
Seeking government assistance, and making threats to pull out, twisting the governments arm and being extremely greedy with what they ask for aren't the same thing.
