Blue Ocean Strategy, Expanded Edition How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make the Competition Irrelevant by W. Chan Kim, Renée A. Mauborgne (book-drive.com)

Small, Fuel-Efficient Japanese Cars
The auto industry, however, did not stand still. In the 1970s, the Japanese
created a new blue ocean, challenging the US automobile industry with small,
efficient cars. Instead of following the implicit industry logic “the bigger, the
better” and focusing on luxuries, the Japanese altered the conventional logic,
pursuing ruthless quality, small size, and the new utility of highly gas-efficient
cars.
When the oil crisis occurred in the 1970s, US consumers flocked to fuel-
efficient, robust Japanese cars made by Honda, Toyota, and Nissan (then called
Datsun). Almost overnight the Japanese became heroes in consumers’ minds.
Their compact, fuel-efficient cars created a new blue ocean of opportunity, and
again, demand soared. With the Big Three focused on benchmarking and
matching one another, none had taken the initiative to produce functional,
compact, fuel-efficient cars, even though they did see the market potential for
such vehicles. Hence, instead of creating a new blue ocean, the Big Three were
dragged into a new round of competitive benchmarking, only this time with the
Japanese; they began to invest heavily in the production of smaller, fuel-efficient
vehicles.
Nevertheless, the Big Three were still hit by a dive in car sales, with aggregate
losses amounting to $4 billion in 1980.

 Chrysler, the little brother among the
Big Three, suffered the hardest hit and narrowly escaped bankruptcy by virtue of
a government bailout. The Japanese car producers had been so effective at
creating and capturing this blue ocean that the US automakers found it hard to
make a real comeback; their competitiveness and long-run viability were thrown
into serious question by industry experts across the world.
