What you do in Car Factory Director

Pick your home
Start in Michigan, Coventry or Pune, each its own difficulty: a huge home market and cheap fuel, high wages and tight rules, or thin margins and enormous volume if you can build cheap and reliable.
Run the line
Press, body, paint, assembly and test. The line runs at the pace of its slowest station, so every upgrade moves the bottleneck somewhere new. Add shifts, speed it up and watch the defects climb.
Keep it fed
Sign suppliers for five part families and hold enough stock to keep building. Run out and the line stops dead. Fill the yard with unsold cars and it stops too.
Design the next car
Every model ages from launch day. Fund a design project, run a clinic to narrow the guess, then wait for the reviews to tell you what you really built. Facelift it, or replace it.
Sell everywhere
Set prices, sign dealers and win fleet contracts. Homologate your cars for new markets, pay the import duty or build a plant there, and ship from whichever plant is closest.
Build a group
Climb from Workshop to Carmaker, Marque, International and Global Group. Hire managers, deal with the union, go racing, and buy a rival when the price is right.

About Car Factory Director

You start with a rented workshop, one hatchback built by hand and $2M. Everything else you build.

Car Factory Director runs in real time. Bodies roll from station to station, trucks leave with finished cars and the sales board ticks. Pause, or play at 2× and 4× speed. Each month ends with a review, and every twelfth is the Model Year Review.

Three things keep every decision honest. Models age: every car's appeal fades from launch day, so the design studio never stops mattering. Inventory bites at both ends: run out of parts and the line stops, fill the yard with unsold cars and it stops too. And speed costs quality: run the line faster and defects climb, and the ones that escape cost warranty money, reputation and, now and then, a recall.

Choose your home from three, open up to fourteen markets, build plants abroad, and climb from Workshop to Carmaker, Marque, International and finally Global Group.

No ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking, no offline progress. The line only runs while you're there.
