Efficiency refers to the ability to accomplish something with the least waste of time and effort; in this case, producing more cars at the same cost demonstrates efficiency. However, effectiveness is about achieving the desired outcome, which in this case would be producing cars that meet quality standards. Producing cars with many defects does not meet this criterion, hence the manufacturer is not effective.
