At the heart of The Prophets' vision are “The 24 Essential Supply Chain Processes.” What are they? Find out, and see the future yourself. Click here This episode takes a break from our usual detailed discussions to reflect on the conversations that shaped the year for the Auto Supply Chain Prophets podcast. Jan Griffiths, joined by co-hosts Jim Liegghio and Terry Onica, looks at why specific episodes stuck with them and what those moments reveal about where the automotive supply chain is heading.Live podcasting quickly rises to the top, especially the Midwest User Group episodes. Hearing customers talk openly about what they deal with every day brought everything back to reality. The hosts agree that these conversations stood out because they were raw, unscripted, and focused on real-life challenges rather than polished talking points.From there, the focus shifts to the next generation of supply chain leaders. Episodes recorded at the GM Wayne State Case Competition and other student-focused events captured something rare: genuine excitement about supply chain careers. Hearing students wrestle with real GM case studies and receive direct feedback from senior leaders reinforced why investing time in education and mentorship matters.Jim then reflects on episodes centered on leadership under pressure, including Kyle Price from Caterpillar and Darrin Lucas from Nissan. Both talked about disruption as something you plan for, not something that throws you off balance. Tariffs, volatility, aftersales pressure, none of it was treated as a crisis. The focus remained on preparation, trusting teams, and staying level-headed. The takeaway was simple but powerful. The way leaders respond sets the tone for everyone else.For Jan, Kate Vitasek's work on collaborative agreements stood out because it moved beyond talk and into how collaboration actually works. But with structure, accountability, and measurable business impact.Ted Mabley's data-driven discussion on RFQs exposed how outdated processes still slow the industry down and why technology only works when people are willing to rethink habits and silos.The episode closes with a grounded reminder: AI, standards, and platforms matter, but they are not shortcuts. Progress depends on people, relationships, and the willingness to unlearn old ways of working. With that perspective, the hosts wrap up 2025 grateful for the conversations, the community, and the momentum heading into the year ahead.Featured on this episode: Name: Terry OnicaTitle: Director, Automotive at QADAbout: For two decades, Terry has been the automotive vertical director of this provider of manufacturing Enterprise Resource Planning software and supply chain solutions.

The Nissan Z is a far cry from the 240Z of old. While it is technically superior to the 240Z of the 1970s, it is dramatically more expensive, even when you account for inflation. The Z was supposed to be an affordable everyman's sportscar. Yet, the new Z's price competes with the Supra, Corvette, and entry level Porsches. Jim Miller and I talk about why that pricing has lead to an early demise of the car, and Nissan's decision to make it an "order-only" vehicle.

El tema de hoy es uno de los más importantes en el mundo del motor. Porque comprar es fácil. Lo difícil es mantener. Hemos hablado de sus precios y de su tecnología, pero el coche no es solo un producto. Es un servicio. ¿Están las marcas chinas preparadas para “el día después”? Ya están aquí. Miras por la calle y ves un MG. Paras en un semáforo y tienes un BYD al lado. Te ofrecen un Omoda con un precio alucinante... Pero hoy en Garaje Hermético hacemos la pregunta incómoda: ¿Qué pasa cuando se estropea? ¿Avanza la post-venta al mismo ritmo que la venta? 1. La Promesa Sobre el Papel: Garantías de Récord Lo primero que te ponen sobre la mesa es la garantía. Y aquí, ganan por goleada. Mientras la mayoría de marcas se acomodan en los 3 años legales, las chinas han reventado la baraja: -MG (Grupo SAIC): 7 años o 150.000 km. -BYD: 6 años o 150.000 km (8 años o 200.000 km para la batería Blade). -Omoda y Jaecoo (Grupo Chery): 7 años o 150.000 km. Sobre el papel, es una declaración de intenciones. Te dicen: "Confía en mí". Pero una garantía, amigos, no es más que un contrato. Su efectividad depende de la red que tiene que ejecutarla. 2. El Triángulo Roto: La Realidad de la Post-Venta El problema de la post-venta no es el coche; es la logística. Es un triángulo con tres pilares, y si uno falla, todo se cae. -Pilar 1: La Capilaridad (¿Dónde está el taller?) Un coche chino hoy te obliga a morir en el servicio oficial. El taller de tu barrio no tiene ni los manuales ni la diagnosis. ¿Y cómo de grande es la red oficial? MG roza los 100 puntos de servicio. BYD prevé unos 60. Omoda, 80. Suena bien, pero Seat, por ejemplo, tiene más de 300. Si vives en Soria, Cáceres o Teruel, tu taller más cercano puede estar a 150 kilómetros. Tener que hacer 200 km (ida y vuelta) para una revisión es un inconveniente. Si el coche falla, es un problema. -Pilar 2: La Formación (¿Saben lo que hacen?) Estas marcas se apoyan en grandes grupos multimarca. El mecánico que ayer reparaba un Corsa, hoy tiene que diagnosticar un híbrido de MG o un eléctrico de BYD. Requiere una formación específica en alta tensión que no todos tienen, y la velocidad de ventas a veces supera a la de la formación. -Pilar 3: La Logística (El Verdadero Talón de Aquiles) Aquí está el punto crítico. El gran agujero negro. Los recambios. Para un Renault, un faro o una aleta llegan en 24-48 horas. ¿Qué pasa con un coche chino? No hay recambio de competencia. Olvídate. SÓLO existe la pieza original. Todo depende del importador y su almacén central. El drama viene con la "pieza de colisión" (carrocería) o "pieza de baja rotación" (un sensor, una centralita). Los testimonios en foros se repiten: "Llevo un mes esperando un paragolpes", "Dos meses parado por un sensor". Las marcas están montando sus centros logísticos en Europa (Francia, Alemania, España), pero si la pieza no está allí, hay que pedirla a China. Y hablamos de semanas o meses. 3. El Ecosistema Chino: No Todos Son Iguales Sería injusto meter a todas en el mismo saco: -Nivel 1: MG (Grupo SAIC): Víctimas de su propio éxito. El ZS ha sido un superventas. Tienen la red más grande, pero también la más congestionada y desbordada. -Nivel 2: BYD (El Gigante): Van más lentos, con una estrategia "premium" aliándose con los grupos de concesionarios más potentes. Son los más serios y controlan hasta sus propios barcos de transporte. -Nivel 3: Omoda/Jaecoo (Grupo Chery): El movimiento más inteligente. Se han aliado con EV Motors para usar la antigua fábrica de Nissan en Barcelona como su gran centro logístico para el sur de Europa. Esto debería acortar drásticamente los plazos. -Nivel 4: Los "Aventureros" (DFSK, SWM, etc.): El peligro real. Vienen a través de un importador. Si el importador quiebra o decide dejar la marca, te quedas con un "coche huérfano". 4. ¿Qué Pasa Fuera de España? No es un problema solo español. En Reino Unido, MG es un éxito rotundo, pero los foros están plagados de quejas por esperas de meses para piezas de carrocería. La situación es tal que algunas aseguradoras han llegado a pausar la emisión de pólizas. ¿La razón? No es la reparación; es el coste del coche de sustitución. Si un golpe tonto tarda 3 meses en repararse, la aseguradora paga 3 meses de coche de cortesía. Es la ruina. América del Sur es el espejo donde mirarnos: un cementerio de marcas "huérfanas" que llegaron, vendieron y desaparecieron, dejando a los propietarios sin recambios. 5. ¿Es Más Caro o Más Barato de Mantener? El mantenimiento programado (filtros, aceite) suele ser barato. El problema son las reparaciones. El drama no es el precio de la pieza, es el coste de inmovilización. ¿De qué sirve una pieza barata si el coche va a estar parado 8 semanas? Si eres un autónomo, un taxista o un comercial, es la ruina. El verdadero coste es el tiempo.

This Week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Rivian's bold vertical integration bet as the EV maker announced plans to build their own chips and lidar sensors, effectively moving away from NVIDIA.Is the introduction of “Autonomy+”, a new software subscription priced to undercut competitors a risky distraction or a necessary move as the company works toward profitability? As Rivian looks inward, Wayve signed a major win, signing a definitive agreement to scale with Nissan in North America and Japan beginning in 2027.Then there is Uber. Who does Uber want to be when autonomy grows up, and who will their partners ultimately be and what those relationships will look like in the long term? Currently, Uber's autonomy narrative faces challenges, as the company appears to be playing defense while getting front-run by partners Waymo in the U.S. and Momenta in Abu Dhabi. Closing out the show, Grayson and Walt discuss the growing world of international autonomy on the weekly Foreign Autonomy Desk segment, covering updates from Bolt, Stellantis, and Caterpillar.Episode Chapters0:00 Rivian's Autonomy Ambitions 13:11 Licensing Autonomous Driving Stacks17:29 Wayve's Approach to Autonomy 21:07 Tesla's Safety Attendant Out in Austin Plans23:35 Waymo's Blitz Scaling 27:37 Waymo's Growing OOH Ad Business 32:32 Uber's Autonomy Narrative 37:57 Serve Robotics 2,000 Robot Delivery Milestone39:30 Tensor Auto / Zero Partnership 42:13 Aurora's Permian Basin Expansion 44:47 Foreign Autonomy Desk 52:16 Next Week Recorded on Friday, December 12, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

1.India among nations hit as Mexico raises import duties up to 50% On December 10, Mexico's Senate approved tariff hikes of up to 50% next year on imports from China and several other Asian countries, aiming to bolster local industry despite opposition from business groups and affected governments. The proposal, passed earlier by the lower house, will raise or impose new duties of up to 50% from 2026 on certain goods such as autos, auto parts, textiles, clothing, plastics and steel from countries without trade deals with Mexico, including China, India, South Korea, Thailand and Indonesia. The majority of products will see tariffs of up to 35%. The import duty on cars will rise to 50 per cent from 20 per cent, dealing a significant blow to India's largest vehicle exporters to Mexico including Volkswagen, Hyundai, Nissan and Maruti Suzuki. 2.Microsoft deepens India bet with AI tie-ups and 200,000 Copilot licenses across top IT firms, and CEO Satya Nadella develops his own cricket app  Microsoft Chairman and CEO Satya Nadella has announced partnerships with four Indian IT companies — Cognizant, Infosys, TCS, and Wipro. Each company will deploy over 50,000 Microsoft Copilot licenses, collectively surpassing 200,000 licenses, and setting a new benchmark for enterprise-scale AI adoption. On a side note, Satya Nadella, a die-hard cricket fan, has been spending his free time coding and designing his own app that he used to analyze the centuries-old game. He talked about combining two of his passions when he designed a Deep Research AI app over Thanksgiving. He then used it to select a team of all-time greats in Indian test cricket, for starters. “The system produced consensus areas, debates, reasoning chains, everything. It was fantastic,” Nadella said during a company event in Bangalore. “I wanted to get a job on the Copilot team.” Nadella is meeting business and political leaders in India this week.  3.IndiGo to give travel vouchers worth ₹10,000 to affected passengers  IndiGo on Thursday said it will offer travel vouchers worth ₹10,000 to passengers impacted by flight disruption on December 3-5. These can be used for any future IndiGo flight in 12 months. The travel vouchers will be in addition to compensation payable under government norms. Directorate General of Civil Aviation norms require airlines to pay compensation of ₹,5000-10,000 to passengers whose flights are cancelled within 24 hours of departure time.  The announcement comes a day after Delhi High Court asked why the airline was not paying compensation. The court also questioned the government for its failure to prevent the chaos. 4.Prada to launch ‘Made in India' Kolhapuri chappals after backlash Prada will make a limited-edition collection of Kolhapuri chappals in India inspired by India's traditional footwear -Kolhapuri sandals, selling each pair at around  $930(₹84,000), turning a backlash over cultural appropriation into a collaboration with Indian artisans. The Italian luxury group plans to make 2,000 pairs of Kolhapuri chappals in the regions of Maharashtra and Karnataka under a deal with two state-backed cooperative bodies.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1216: Today we dig into the tightening-but-shifting new-car inventory landscape, explore Nissan's bold attempt to rediscover its “North Star”, and watch Target leapfrog competitors by baking full-on AI shopping directly into ChatGPT.Show Notes with links:November brought a slight dip in overall new-vehicle inventory, but the real headline for dealers is how quickly anything under $25K is evaporating from lots—and how quickly EV days' supply is rising. Here's the breakdown:U.S. new-vehicle inventory fell 1.6% to 3.09M units, but days' supply ticked up from 70 to 73.Sub-$25K vehicles are practically mythical—spending 1.5 days on lots.EV supply ballooned from 107 to 126 daysHybrids sit at a 60-day supply, ICE vehicles at 75 days; minivans remain leanest at 58 days.Toyota continues to run the tightest ship in the industry with 31 days of supply.Christian Meunier isn't pulling punches—Nissan has been drifting for years, and he says the U.S. turnaround now depends on sharper execution, stronger product, and yes…better dealer performance.Meunier says Nissan had “no North star, no vision and no direction,” prompting him to bring headquarters staff back in-office four days a week to accelerate decisions and rebuild momentum.U.S. sales have fallen 40% in a decade, market share is down to 6.4%, and heavy discounting has trained shoppers to view Nissan as “the cheap one.”Nissan needs at least 7–8% retail share to support its 1,067 U.S. stores, and if the brand can't lift demand, fewer dealers may be necessary.“Christian is the right man for the job. It's just a hard job,” said dealer council lead Mike Rezi.Target is jumping headfirst into AI commerce by embedding its shopping experience directly into ChatGPT, building on OpenAI's growing presence in e-commerce with Shopify and Etsy integrations.Users can search, add to cart, and check out via ChatGPT using their Target account.The integration supports drive-thru and pickup orders within the chat interface.This move mirrors Walmart's AI ambitions, but Target is first to market with a confirmed rollout.“Target is a great example of what that shift looks like when it's done with ambition and speed,” said Fidji Simo, OpenAI CEO of Applications.Thank you to today's sponsor, Mia.

เคยสงสัยไหมครับว่า.. ทำไมแบรนด์รถยนต์ที่เคยยิ่งใหญ่ระดับโลก ถึงยอมทิ้งชื่อเสียงที่สั่งสมมากว่า 50 ปีไปดื้อๆ? ในปี 1986.. Nissan ตัดสินใจทำในสิ่งที่วงการการตลาดต้องจารึกไว้ นั่นคือการ “ฆ่า” แบรนด์ Datsun ในสหรัฐอเมริกา ลองจินตนาการดูนะครับ เหมือนอยู่ดีๆ วันหนึ่ง Coca-Cola ประกาศเลิกใช้ชื่อ “โค้ก” แล้วเปลี่ยนไปใช้ชื่อบริษัทแม่แทน ทั้งที่คนทั้งโลกรู้จักชื่อเดิมไปแล้ว ผลลัพธ์คือความสับสนวุ่นวาย และมูลค่าแบรนด์ที่หายวับไปกับตา แต่เรื่องราวมันไม่ได้จบแค่นั้นครับ เพราะอีกหลายสิบปีต่อมา.. พวกเขาพยายามปลุกผี Datsun ให้ฟื้นคืนชีพอีกครั้ง แต่สุดท้าย.. ก็ต้องลงเอยด้วยความล้มเหลว และต้องฝังกลบชื่อนี้ซ้ำเป็นครั้งที่สอง ทำไมค่ายรถยนต์ยักษ์ใหญ่ถึงเดินหมากผิดพลาดซ้ำซ้อนขนาดนี้? และเราได้เรียนรู้อะไรจากโศกนาฏกรรมทางธุรกิจครั้งนี้บ้าง? ยินดีต้อนรับเข้าสู่รายการครับ พอดแคสต์ EP นี้ จะพาผู้ฟังทุกท่านย้อนเวลากลับไปดูจุดกำเนิด จุดจบ และความพยายามเฮือกสุดท้ายของตำนานที่ชื่อว่า Datsun เลือกฟังกันได้เลยนะครับ อย่าลืมกด Follow ติดตาม PodCast ช่อง Geek Forever's Podcast ของผมกันด้วยนะครับ #Nissan #Datsun #นิสสัน #ดัทสัน #ประวัติศาสตร์รถยนต์ #กรณีศึกษาธุรกิจ #การตลาด #รถคลาสสิก #เรื่องเล่ารถยนต์ #Datsun240Z #รถญี่ปุ่น #CarlosGhosn #ข่าวรถยนต์ #สาระยานยนต์ #รถแต่ง #geekstory #geekforeverpodcast

La Fórmula E ha arrancado una nueva temporada con una carrera absolutamente caótica y llena de incidentes, marcada por el debut de Pepe Martí, el primer piloto español full-time en una década. También comienza la última campaña del coche Gen3, y lo hace con movimientos importantes: el estreno de Citroën en sustitución de Maserati, un paso que ya ha empezado a tener impacto en la pista. La clasificación ya dejó el primer gran susto del año con la bandera roja provocada por Felipe Drugovich en la curva 4. Porsche mostró músculo con Wehrlein, Dennis y Ticktum marcando el ritmo, mientras Mahindra sorprendió con un rendimiento inesperadamente competitivo. Aun así, las penalizaciones a Wehrlein y Rowland pusieron la parrilla patas arriba incluso antes de empezar la carrera. El ePrix fue una absoluta locura desde la primera vuelta: toques, pinchazos, chicanes saltadas, sanciones y una batalla estratégica constante con los attack mode, que provocaron más de una decena de cambios de líder. Los accidentes de los Nissan, el vuelco de la carrera tras el accidente múltiple de Mortara y Di Grassi, y la espectacular remontada de Rowland y Cassidy mantuvieron la incertidumbre hasta el final. La bandera roja por el choque entre Pepe Martí, Da Costa y Müller dejó una imagen impactante. Al final, Jake Dennis aprovechó su último attack mode para escaparse y ganar con autoridad, seguido por Rowland y un impresionante Cassidy, que remontó 13 posiciones. Drugovich cruzó 5º pero cayó fuera de los puntos por sanción. Citroën celebró su primer podio en su debut, Envision salvó un doble resultado inesperado y Zane Maloney sumó su primer punto en la categoría. La temporada arranca con un líder sólido, un campeón remontando desde atrás y un debut español marcado por la mala fortuna. La Fórmula E vuelve con más caos, más estrategia y más emoción que nunca. Próxima cita: 10 de enero en Ciudad de México. Puede ver el programa al completo aquí: https://youtube.com/live/fqzsmNBIlmE

It is time for Europe to get past squabbling and realise that the US is no longer even ambivalent, but an active hostile antagonist, intent on picking off liberal democracies one-by-one.

The Gilead reality of Trump 2.0.” “What that National Security document, ridiculous as it is, reveals is that there's obviously a notional line in their heads, behind which brown people ought to stay and beyond which this country or that continent ought to be white.” “The history of humanity is about immigration. People moving around. The tapestry that mixing weaves has always changed and will keep changing. It's ultimately a fool's errand to think that you can try and stop that from happening.” “I don't want genderless biscuits invading my single-sex spaces. I don't want some gingerbread 'person' to be allowed to come and undress next to me at the gym.” “What we do know is that the algorithm makes assumptions based on somebody's location, age profile, and gender, then serves them very rapidly content it thinks will hook them and keep them engaging. You're 16 and a man living in a rural environment, you're probably an incel. Have this lovely Jordan Peterson video.” “I feel very lucky not to have grown up with this. I don't know anyone my age that would say: Gosh, I wish there was social media around when I was 13!” “The advantage of income tax is that it is progressive and you are pretty sure you will get money from it. Tinkering with many small measures can induce changes in behaviour that completely offset what you're trying to do, so then you have to tinker more.” “In Australia, the tech companies are the ones enforcing the ban, which seems to me problematic, to say the least. I used to work for a gambling company, that made all the right noises about self-regulation, but was also very keen to take as much money off people as possible. They're being pulled into very different directions at the same time.“ “It's quite a good deathbed thing to do and it got me thinking, what's going to be my last act?

The blog postIn this episode, Mark Graban flips roles and becomes the guest—answering five core Lean questions posed by longtime Lean thinker Tim McMahon of the A Lean Journey blog. These questions have been answered by many practitioners over the years, and they cut straight to the purpose, the misconceptions, and the future of Lean.Mark shares how he first encountered Lean as an industrial engineering student, and how the system came alive when he worked inside the GM Livonia Engine Plant under a NUMMI-trained plant manager. That contrast, and the mentoring from former Toyota and Nissan leaders, shaped his views on what Lean really is: a management system rooted in respect, not a collection of tools.He discusses the most powerful (and most overlooked) aspects of Lean today, including the central role of psychological safety and why tools fail without the right leadership behaviors. Mark also explores where he sees the biggest opportunity for Lean—particularly in healthcare, where preventable harm, burnout, and broken processes remain stubbornly persistent.The conversation closes with why these foundational questions still matter. Lean evolves as we learn, and the answers shift as our experiences expand. Mark reflects on how continuous improvement requires an environment where people feel safe to speak up, experiment, and improve their work every day.If you're interested in the human side of Lean, how culture and leadership shape results, and where Lean thinking needs to go next, this episode offers a grounded and candid perspective.

Send us a textn this fun and fiery episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we break out a the much loved segment: HOT or NOT — where we each bring five items from JDM culture and rate whether they're heaters… or total misses.From niche parts and weird trends to iconic cars and controversial mods, nothing is off-limits. We go back and forth with honest takes, friendly roasting, and a few surprises as we reveal what we think deserves the hype — and what definitely doesn't.

Today's episode covers a bizarre $12,000 Hyundai repair caused by spilled water, how California police uncovered high‑tech key‑fob relay thefts, and Nissan's recall of 42,000 Sentras for bubbled windshields. We also road‑test the 2026 Nissan Leaf (surprising real‑world range and features), get Infiniti's winter driving tips, review the VueRoid S1 dashcam, and share maintenance advice for diesel trucks and classic‑car musings.

There's no arguing the Lamborghini Gallardo GT3 is no slouch. But the World Time Attack Challenge is a whole different league, and in standard form this factory race car is basically like bringing a knife to a gunfight. To run with the world's best, it needed serious development—and that's exactly what Josh and his team at Specialised Racing Solutions delivered, bagging P2 in Pro class on the car's debut outing.

His aggressive, controlled power-slides, born from the limits of bias-ply tires, helped shape the driving style that inspired Keiichi Tsuchiya and drifting as we know it. From volcanic hillclimbs to Nissan's “Three Crows” era to delivering Honda a GT2-class win at Le Mans, Takahashi's career defined multiple eras of motorsport and left a legacy that still echoes across racing and drift culture today.

At the heart of The Prophets' vision are “The 24 Essential Supply Chain Processes.” What are they? Find out, and see the future yourself. Click here Brand loyalty at Nissan isn't earned during a sale. It's earned later, when a driver needs a repair, and the part they need is already there. That moment shapes Darrin Lucas's work. He leads after-sales supply chain operations across the Americas, making sure vehicles stay in service instead of sitting in a bay waiting for parts.His team manages warranty support, service parts, and dealer inventory with one goal in mind: a repair should feel routine to the customer. The planning beneath it, however, is anything but routine. Instead of reacting to dealer requests, they work ahead of demand and stock items based on what they expect will be needed weeks from now.To make those decisions earlier and with more accuracy, Nissan is moving past traditional forecasting habits. The company utilizes AI-driven predictions, real-time performance dashboards, and automation in its distribution centers to prepare the correct parts before customers arrive for service. With better insight comes a different kind of supply chain partnership. Suppliers aren't just shipping parts; they're sharing data, adapting quickly, and helping Nissan support both production and service without sacrificing one for the other.Dealers are also part of the strategy. Darrin talks about advisory boards where dealers give feedback, test ideas, and influence how inventory gets planned. This helps Nissan prevent shortages before they occur, and it provides a clearer picture of what customers are actually experiencing in service bays, not just what spreadsheets predict.Darrin's own career mirrors the way Nissan wants the organization to work. He joined Nissan as a packaging engineer and moved into logistics, quality, and operations because leaders encouraged him to learn beyond his role. That gave him the perspective he uses today. Now, he leads by giving his team the same space to grow, allowing people to learn, think independently, and solve problems without being controlled by every metric. When people understand the business, the KPIs follow.Nissan views after-sales as an ongoing promise to customers who have already chosen the brand. It isn't a backup to manufacturing or a response to breakdowns. It's part of the relationship that continues long after the car leaves the showroom, earning loyalty through every mile the vehicle stays on the road.Themes discussed in this episode:How stocking service parts weeks in advance prevents vehicles from sitting idle at the dealershipThe shift from outdated forecasting methods to AI-driven demand planning in automotive after-salesHow automation in distribution centers speeds up service part delivery and reduces wait timesWhy suppliers must support both production and after-sales to meet customer repair expectationsThe increasing demand for OEM parts through e-commerce and how it disrupts traditional delivery modelsHow proactive parts planning turns after-sales into a strategic advantage instead of a reaction to breakdownsThe value of cross-functional experience in building leaders who understand the entire parts lifecycleThe responsibility of after-sales supply chain teams to maintain customer confidence after the saleFeatured on this episode:Name: Darrin LucasTitle: Director, Aftersales Supply Chain Operations Americas at Nissan North AmericaAbout: Darrin is the Director of Aftersales Supply Chain Operations for the

Send us a textIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we sit down with Ben Norris, an Alabama native and proud owner of an R33 GT-R we met at GT-R Festival 2025. Ben's passion for RHD culture runs deep, and his story is a perfect blend of hustle, heart, and horsepower.We talk about his journey into JDM cars, how he managed to get his hands on a Skyline, and what the right-hand-drive lifestyle means to him. From the early days of grinding to finally owning his dream car, Ben brings a refreshing, down-to-earth perspective on the community and the culture behind it.

In Podcast #366, John Davis and the MotorWeek crew dive into some very recent first drives with some very important new models. Greg starts things off with a west-coast adventure in the all-new 2026 Subaru Outback, which officially leaves it's wagon identity behind. Then Jessica recalls her recent time in Nissan's longest running nameplate, the Sentra. And Alex gets passionate about his time on the Tail of the Dragon driving the Hurricane-powered Dodge Charger. Does it really need a HEMI now? Then we recap what we know of the 2025 Los Angeles Auto Show. (This episode was recorded before the LA Auto Show announcements, so we want to correct that the 2027 Kia Telluride's standard powertrain is a 2.5L Turbo-4.)

In this special episode of Tim Talks, Tim sits down with dealer principal Tim Pohanka to unpack one of the most creative, daring, and downright fun marketing experiments the automotive world has seen in years. Pohanka and two other Nissan dealer principals each bought a sub-$10,000 used Nissan, added minimal modifications, and embarked on a 1,200-mile off-road endurance challenge across Utah's most brutal terrain — from the Bonneville Salt Flats to Moab, Little Sahara, Cathedral Valley, and more. With more than 150 hours of drone, in-car, and cinematic footage, the “Tour Detour” chronicles not only the punishing journey but also the surprising durability of these inexpensive vehicles, particularly the much-debated Nissan CVT.What emerges is more than a road trip. It's a blueprint for modern dealership storytelling: raw, human, adventurous, and anchored in authenticity instead of polished ad scripts. The conversation dives into how this grassroots project reshapes consumer perception, celebrates the joy of the American road trip, and proves that creativity in auto retail still has endless room to grow. It's part entertainment, part marketing masterclass, and fully a reminder that the car business can — and should — still be fun.Takeaways0:00 — Why leadership and creativity still define the best dealerships.0:50 — $6k Nissans pushed through a 1,200-mile off-road challenge.1:51 — Moab, Little Sahara, Cathedral Valley, UTV parks, Telluride — some of the harshest environments in America.2:44 — 150 Hours of cinematic footage to tell a story OEMs can't.3:57 — The journey starts at the Bonneville Salt Flats, where Tim's grandfather once raced4:38 — Nissan's CVT has taken heat, but the team intentionally tried to break it… and couldn't. 7:14 — A local Utah man keeps his shop open until 11 PM to rescue the crew.8:01 — A badly timed jump at Swing Arm City launches Tim's roof rack into the air.9:12 — Most people can't afford a $70k Bronco or Rubicon but a $10k adventure car? That's relatable and inspiring.10:46 — How storytelling and authenticity outperform today's noisy, overly polished ads.12:12 — The Tour Detour clips now help humanize the dealership and show real-world use cases customers trust.15:45 — After surviving impossible terrain, Tim can hardly part with his Nissan.17:50 — A Challenge to Dealerships Everywhere: Every store can tell authentic stories that make cars fun again.Connect with Tim Pohanka on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/timpohanka/Watch the Tour Detour: https://thetourdetour.com/Connect with Tim Cox on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-cox-29065a7/Listen to more episodes of Tim Talks at: https://www.carnow.com/timtalks/

After every overlanding trip, I follow a simple but super effective routine to make sure my rig and gear are ready for the next adventure.

Au Japon, des négociations sociales très difficiles et donc probablement tendues sont sur le point de débuter chez Nissan. Le constructeur automobile, en grandes difficultés, a annoncé un plan de restructuration d'une ampleur sans précédent depuis plus d'un quart de siècle : depuis qu'en 1999, Carlos Ghosn l'avait sauvé de la faillite en licenciant 21 000 salariés. Cette fois, ce sont 20 000 emplois qui vont être supprimés, soit 15% des effectifs du groupe. Qui va aussi fermer sept de ses dix-sept usines dans l'archipel. De notre correspondant de retour d'Oppama, Oppama, à une cinquantaine de kilomètres de la capitale. Cette localité de 30 000 habitants est surnommée « Nissan no machi » (« La ville Nissan ») car, depuis 1961, elle héberge une des plus grandes usines du groupe. Pendant des décennies, ses 2 400 salariés ont produit ici des véhicules aussi emblématiques que la Leaf, la première voiture 100% électrique qui fut commercialisée dans le monde. Mais Nissan va quitter Oppama et, au Japon, ce tournant est comparé aux restructurations qui touchèrent jadis les usines Renault de Flins, dans les Yvelines, et de Vilvorde, en Belgique, des séismes sociaux à l'époque. Ces salariés sont sous le choc :   - « Quand la décision a été rendue publique, cela a été un immense coup de massue. On était tous complètement abasourdis. KO, pour ainsi dire. », explique un employé choqué par la nouvelle.- « Oppama, c'était vraiment l'usine emblématique du groupe. La fermer et prier un si grand nombre de salariés de déguerpir… c'est un tremblement de terre pour nous ».- « Le devoir n°1 de Nissan, c'est de nous rassurer. Que va-t-on devenir ? Comment va-t-on gagner notre vie ? » À Oppama, c'est la consternation générale. Un habitant sur dix travaille chez Nissan. Et le constructeur n'a pas encore présenté le moindre plan de reconversion précis de l'immense site qu'il occupe : grand comme 200 terrains de football.  Or, si les lieux deviennent un désert industriel, ce sera le coup de grâce pour l'économie locale, selon ces commerçants, qui sont extrêmement inquiets :- « Jamais la ville Nissan ne se remettra de cette fermeture. C'est la mort annoncée pour notre petite cité. »- «  20 à 30% de mes clients, ce sont des employés de Nissan. Si le groupe ne revient pas sur sa décision, je risque de devoir mettre la clé sous la porte comme beaucoup de commerçants. » - « Tous les midis, pendant la pause déjeuner, les salariés de Nissan font la queue devant ma boutique pour acheter un bento : un plateau-repas préparé. Déjà, c'était dur pour nous, les petits commerçants, avec l'envol du prix du riz et des produits alimentaires. Mais là, avec cette fermeture à venir, c'est la double peine. Le scénario du pire, même, pour nous, en fait. » Il n'y a pas la moindre chance que ce plan social soit adouci. Car le constructeur automobile est dans le rouge comme jamais. Il prévoit pour cette année une perte d'exploitation d'1,5 milliard d'euros. L'action Nissan a chuté de plus de 25% depuis janvier. Et les derniers chiffres de vente semestriels du groupe dans l'archipel sont historiquement mauvais : en chute de 17%. Une telle contre-performance, c'est sans précédent depuis trente ans.

It's rare to find someone whose career spans 18 years in automotive manufacturing and venture capital, but Charly Mgwani, Partner at Eclipse Ventures, has done exactly that. His journey from the factory floor at Toyota, Nissan, Tesla and Rivian to backing hard tech companies gives him a perspective many VCs don't have.We sit down with Charly to explore how first principles thinking (questioning assumptions and getting back to root causes) drives real innovation in manufacturing.He walks us through Tesla's early days when they were asking questions nobody in the automotive industry had thought to ask, like whether robots could be programmed to work faster or if there was a better way to design for manufacturing.The conversation covers what Eclipse looks for in the founders they support, why being scrappy can lead to better manufacturing decisions, and why old manufacturing principles need rethinking as the industry flows in the opposite direction.In this episode, find out:How first principles thinking challenges manufacturing assumptions and unlocks innovationWhy asking “why not?” opens possibilities that “that's how it's always been done” closes offThe critical relationship between product design and manufacturability that many companies overlookWhat Charly learned about manufacturing during his time at Toyota and NissanWhy being capital-constrained can force creativity and focus in manufacturingThe questions Tesla asked that nobody in automotive had thought to ask beforeWhat Eclipse Ventures looks for in the founders they back and why that matters for hard tech companiesEnjoying the show? Please leave us a review here. Even one sentence helps. It's feedback from Manufacturing All-Stars like you that keeps us going!Tweetable Quotes:“I was ten years into my career when Elon was asking questions that had never been asked in automotive before. By forcing us to think about things from a first principle, we started identifying levers like part consolidation that are now commonplace in manufacturing today.”“Most folks design a factory as just what's inside the shell, but then you end up with over-built systems that don't speak to each other. If you design it as one product, like how a vehicle would be designed, there are more synergistic opportunities to simplify the utilities and make them complimentary.”“Manufacturing until recently has always flowed towards low labor costs and consolidation in pursuit of economies of scale. But now it's flowing in the other direction, so that means you can't depend on previous principles and how manufacturing has always been designed.”Links & mentions:Eclipse Ventures, partnering with entrepreneurs boldly transforming the essential industries that define and propel economies.

Alex Kendall founded Wayve in 2017 with a contrarian vision: replace the hand-engineered autonomous vehicle stack with end-to-end deep learning. While AV 1.0 companies relied on HD maps, LiDAR retrofits, and city-by-city deployments, Wayve built a generalization-first approach that can adapt to new vehicles and cities in weeks. Alex explains how world models enable reasoning in complex scenarios, why partnering with automotive OEMs creates a path to scale beyond robo-taxis, and how language integration opens up new product possibilities. From driving in 500 cities to deploying with manufacturers like Nissan, Wayve demonstrates how the same AI breakthroughs powering LLMs are transforming the physical economy.
