Correct sentence: The table illustrates car production figures for three major manufacturers between 2010 and 2015.
- We cannot say
cars production, cars is a plural noun, and here it should modify “production”, but only singular noun modifiers work properly in this structure. The correct noun phrase is: “car production figures” (not cars) - The preposition “by” is slightly awkward when use with “figures”. We use figures with “for”.
