I'm really not grokking your math. You said 1 car/minute/line, which on an 8 hour, 5 day shift would yield 2400 cars per week, and then 4800 from two shifts.
Then you said 5000/day, and I think you meant week, which lines up with the previous numbers, but then: how is that 100,000/year? ~5000*~50 is ~250,000/year. Do plants only run for 20 weeks/year?
Also, why only run a plant 5 days/week? It seems (admittedly, entirely naively of any industry knowledge here, like union rules) like each line should be capable of close to 350k/year at 1/minute for 16 hours a day.
