Shoot us a Text.Episode #1033: Today we're talking Hyundai and Kia's red-hot April sales streak, Ford's surprise retreat from a major software project, and why most consumers still aren't sold on AI or social shopping tools.Show Notes with links:U.S. shoppers are racing to dealerships to beat rising prices from new import tariffs, driving Hyundai and Kia to record April sales as both brands notch their seventh straight month of year-over-year gains.Hyundai U.S. sales jumped 19% in April, while Kia sales rose 14%.EVs and hybrids continue to shine: Hyundai up 25%, Kia up 21%.Industrywide sales were projected to rise as much as 15% in April, though momentum cooled as the month progressed.U.S. new-vehicle inventory dropped to 2.57M units (61-day supply) in mid-April, down from 2.69M (70 days) at the start of April and 2.8M (81 days) a year ago, per Cox Automotive.“Inventory levels have declined substantially over recent weeks, likely pushing vehicle prices higher. The outlook for new-auto sales from here is more troubling,” said Cox Automotive's Charles Chesbrough.Ford has canceled its highly anticipated FNV4 electrical architecture project, once billed as key to competing with EV pioneers like Tesla. The move underscores the uphill battle legacy automakers face in modernizing vehicle software.FNV4 aimed to unify software across gas and electric models, cutting costs and boosting update speed.The project was scrapped due to cost overruns and delays, after contributing to nearly $10B in software and EV losses over two years.CEO Jim Farley admitted Ford's current system relies on code from 150 suppliers—creating major barriers to quality and speed.Ford is shifting focus to a California-based skunkworks team developing affordable EVs and advanced software.“The only strategic advantage any company can have is speed,” said Caresoft Global's Terry Woychowski.New data shows a growing divide in how U.S. consumers view tech-driven shopping. KPMG's summer 2025 survey suggests widespread hesitation toward AI and social commerce—while Capgemini sees signs of rising adoption, especially among Gen Z.63% of consumers haven't used AI shopping tools and don't plan to, per KPMG; 56% say the same for social shopping.Shoppers say they prefer doing their own research and aren't swayed by online ads—especially when privacy and data usage are involved.In contrast, Capgemini reports nearly 60% of consumers now use generative AI in place of traditional search, and a third shop directly via social media.Gen Z bucks the trend: over half have made purchases via social platforms, and TikTok shoppers spent an average of $708 on the app last year.“The visual nature of fashion makes it a perfect fit for platforms like Instagram and TikTok,” said KPMG's Sam Ganga, urginJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Matthieu Deboeuf-Rouchon, responsable de l'innovation chez Capgemini Engineering, décrypte l'univers des jumeaux numériques 5D, une révolution technologique qui transforme l'industrie, la gestion des infrastructures et la santé.Les Digital Twins, ou jumeaux numériques, connaissent aujourd'hui une profonde mutation. Loin de se limiter à des représentations visuelles en 3D, ils deviennent de véritables plateformes d'aide à la décision, intégrant des données financières, temporelles et opérationnelles.Matthieu Deboeuf-Rouchon explique comment cette évolution change la donne, à travers des exemples concrets comme la modélisation de l'aéroport de Heathrow. Les jumeaux numériques permettent désormais de simuler des environnements complexes et d'optimiser en temps réel la gestion des infrastructures, des flux logistiques ou encore des systèmes énergétiques.Il dresse également un panorama des forces de l'écosystème français, avec des acteurs majeurs tels que Dassault Systèmes, et met en lumière les enjeux liés à la captation de données (IoT, lidar, computer vision) ainsi qu'à l'orchestration de l'intelligence artificielle.-----------

Donald Trump fête les 100 premiers jours de son second bail à la Maison Blanche. Ses fans se délectent du volontarisme du président américain. Ses détracteurs sont consternés. Ceux qui sont entre les deux ont plutôt un regard critique sur l'action du républicain. Les marchés actions ont repris du poil de la bête par rapport au bilan à 80 jours, pas vraiment par une conviction inébranlable dans la politique économique de Trump, mais plutôt parce que les garde-fous ont l'air de fonctionner.Distribué par Audiomeans.

As organizations increasingly integrate Gen AI into their operations, it's crucial to consider the technology's environmental impact. However, only 12% of executives report that their organizations measure Gen AI's footprint, and just 20% prioritize its environmental footprint among the top five factors when choosing or developing models. Despite this, Gen AI's ability to rapidly process large volumes of data helps organizations improve customer experience, optimize operations, drive growth, and foster innovation.This week, Dave, Esmee and Rob talk to Lewis Richards, Microsoft Chief Sustainability Officer, UK about the pivotal shift in global sustainability perspectives, the challenges of fostering meaningful conversations in the digital world and strategies to enhance human understanding of technology and its impacts.

In this episode I welcomes Lindsey  Mazza Capgemini's Global Retail Lead, to explore the latest findings from their annual What Matters to Today's Consumer report. The conversation uncovers significant shifts in consumer behaviour, AI-driven retail strategies, and the future of fast delivery.Mazza outlines how 2025 marks a turning point where science fiction meets retail reality. Consumer expectations are rapidly changing, with a notable surge in demand for ultra-fast delivery. According to the study, 70% of consumers now prefer 10-minute delivery, a dramatic rise from previous years. However, Mazza warns that while demand is high, willingness to pay for such convenience remains a challenge for retailers.Another key insight is the transformation of consumer segmentation. Traditional demographic-based segmentation is becoming outdated, replaced by machine-learning-driven clusters focusing on shopping behaviour. Capgemini's research identifies five distinct consumer groups based on purchasing habits rather than age or income, highlighting the importance of behaviour-driven marketing strategies.The discussion also delves into AI's evolving role in retail. Mazza explains how AI is revolutionizing both front-end consumer experiences and back-end operations. From personalized shopping recommendations to AI-powered logistics, generative AI enables retailers to refine supply chains, automate decision-making, and enhance the shopping journey. Notably, retail media networks use AI to optimize ad placement, influencing consumer purchases more effectively than traditional search engines.Retailers must also navigate the rise of social commerce, with 70% of consumers now shopping through social platforms and seeking influencer recommendations. This trend underscores the shift towards a more interactive, digital-first retail landscape.When asked where retailers should invest their last dollar, Mazza prioritizes three areas:Retail Media – The next wave of influencer marketing.Supply Chain Innovation – Fast, efficient logistics as a key consumer differentiator.Sustainability Initiatives – Particularly in food waste reduction, which offers financial and environmental benefits.With AI reshaping the retail landscape, Mazza emphasizes that success lies not in chasing AI use cases but in adopting value-driven technologies that enhance business performance and consumer engagement.For more insights, visit Capgemini's Research Institute or connect with Lindsay Mazza on LinkedIn.#RetailTrends #AIinRetail #FastDelivery #RetailMedia #ConsumerBehavior #RetailInnovation #VoiceofRetail Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E.

In this episode, we speak with Lucca Ewbank, Program Manager, Transport at InfluenceMap, who shares how the non-profit think tank uses data-driven analysis to assess corporate engagement with climate policies, and holds the corporate and financial sectors accountable for their role in climate change.Ewbank discusses:The significant disparity between what airlines say publicly versus what they advocate for in private meetings with policymakers, uncovered through Freedom of Information (FOI) requests that reveal how industry associations often oppose stronger climate regulations.The clear split within the aviation sector between “positive leaders” (typically low-cost carriers) who support more ambitious climate policies, and “laggards” (legacy carriers) who often oppose extensions of emissions trading schemes.Concerns about sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) policies, particularly how some industry players advocate for feedstock calculations that might underestimate emissions.The aviation industry's consistent opposition to demand management measures, with examples of airlines taking legal action against flight caps at airports.The role investors can play in encouraging positive climate policy engagement by holding companies accountable for their lobbying activities and pushing for transparency between public commitments and private advocacy.Ewbank emphasises that while there are encouraging signs from some industry leaders, aviation emissions continue to grow rapidly even as other sectors reduce their climate impact, with EU aviation emissions rising 9.5% in 2023 while overall EU emissions fell by 8%.If you LOVED this episode, you'll also love the conversation we had with Matt Finch, UK Policy Manager at Transport & Environment, who discusses the need for more ambitious policies and actions to address aviation's environmental impact.
