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

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/

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.

It's SEMA time and that means a road trip to Las Vegas, Nevada. Holman puts some miles on a '25 Jeep Gladiator and spends his first day with Nissan, getting a SEMA concept and show rig preview and a chance to drive the Frontier PRO-4X Roush Edition and the Nissan Armada NISMO.

A YouTuber powers his entire home using batteries pulled from disposable vapes. It's an ingenious (if slightly dangerous) recycling project that shows how creative energy storage can get. Germany — the country that started the global solar revolution — actually has worse solar potential than Saskatchewan's darkest month! Still, by inspiring the boom that made solar cheap and widespread, Germany paved the way for countries like China to dominate solar manufacturing today.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1192: Ford faces a jolt of EV reality as the F-150 Lightning may lose its spark. Meanwhile, SEMA goes full throttle with hydrogen, hybrids, and horsepower. And Progressive's “Flo” gets a digital copilot as AI helps animals hit the road in the brand's latest ad.Show Notes with links:Ford is reportedly weighing the end of its all-electric F-150 Lightning as it reassesses its EV strategy amid steep losses and cooling demand. The move would mark a dramatic shift from what Ford once called a “Model T moment.”Ford's Model e division has lost $2.2B in the first half of 2025 and Lightning production remains paused after a fire at aluminum supplier Novelis,Sales have plateaued: only 24,577 units sold through October and fewer than 100,000 total since launch.Ford execs are prioritizing gas and hybrid F-150s as EV tax credits fade and consumer demand softens.The review echoes moves by GM and Stellantis, both of which have scaled back electric truck plans.The SEMA Show once again delivered its signature mix of over-the-top creativity and real-world innovation. Automakers used the Las Vegas stage to showcase performance, personalization, and the future of vehicle design.Ford unveiled the Maverick 300T, a 300-hp street truck featuring the Mustang's turbocharger, a lowered stance, and sport-tuned suspension aimed at AWD trims.Honda came in hot with eight prototypes, led by the Civic Type R HRC Rally XP built for rally racing.Toyota showed off a Turbo Trail Cruiser based on a 1985 Land Cruiser FJ60.Nissan's Dune Patrol turned the Armada into a desert racer.“SEMA has become the proving ground for what's next in personalization — if it's wild enough to work here, it's only a matter of time before it hits the street,” said one show organizer.Progressive is putting artificial intelligence in the driver's seat—literally—in its new ad “Drive Like an Animal.” The spot uses AI-generated visuals to depict animals behind the wheel while promoting the company's Snapshot® program, which personalizes rates based on actual driving habits.The ad combines AI-generated animation with the familiar voice of Flo (Stephanie Courtney) for a whimsical twist where llamas, lions, and leopards rule the road.“AI is an exciting tool that adds to our ability to innovate, but it's just that—a tool,” said Matt Dillon, Business Leader of Creative Development at Ninety6, Progressive's agency.Progressive says its use of AI follows strict ethical and copyright standards, emphasizing responsible innovation.“‘Drive Like an Animal' shows that fairness and personalization can be fun—drivers deserve coverage that reflects them,” said Meghan Walsh, Progressive's Head of Integrated Marketing.Join 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/

Quizás el título podría ser menos duro, algo así como “marcas que PUEDEN desaparecer...y A LO PEOR es que se lo merecen”. Porque en la jungla del automóvil, la historia no te salva. Algunas marcas, por sus errores, su soberbia o su incapacidad para ver el futuro, parece que están cavando su propia tumba. Y hoy te vamos a decir cuáles y por qué… y esperamos equivocarnos. 1. Aston Martin. Propietario: Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings plc (Consorcio de inversores). País: Reino Unido. ¿Por qué se lo merece? Porque parece que no aprende. Ha sido rescatada una y otra vez por inversores que se enamoran del nombre, pero la gestión sigue siendo un pozo sin fondo. Queman dinero a un ritmo alarmante, la deuda es gigantesca y su plan de electrificación ha sido errático. 2. Chrysler. Propietario: Stellantis. País: Estados Unidos. ¿Por qué merece desaparecer? Por abandono de funciones. Una marca no puede sobrevivir sin coches que vender. La han dejado morir lentamente, sin darle nuevos modelos. Ahora prometen un futuro eléctrico con concepts como el Halcyon, pero es muy poco y llega muy tarde. Su final será el resultado de décadas de negligencia corporativa. 3. DS Automobiles. Propietario: Stellantis. País: Francia. ¿Por qué se merece desaparecer? Porque el consumidor no es tonto. DS no ofrece una tecnología propia, ni plataformas exclusivas, ni una experiencia que justifique su sobreprecio. Es un intento de "quiero y no puedo" que el mercado jamás ha comprado. 4. Fisker. Propietario: Fisker Inc. (En bancarrota). País: Estados Unidos. ¿Por qué merece desaparecer? No puedes lanzar un producto a medio hacer y esperar que la gente pague por ser tu beta tester. Ahora, la empresa está en bancarrota, los coches pierden su valor a un ritmo vertiginoso y los propietarios están abandonados. Es la crónica de una muerte anunciada. 5. Infinity. Propietario: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. País: Japón. ¿Por qué merece estar en esta lista? Por pura negligencia. Nissan nunca supo o nunca quiso invertir de verdad en Infiniti para hacerla competitiva a nivel global. La abandonó a su suerte. Se retiraron de Europa en 2020 sin hacer ruido y en su mercado principal, Estados Unidos, sus ventas son irrelevantes. Ahora dicen que se van a centrar en SUVs eléctricos. Infiniti es la prueba de que, si no cuidas tu marca, se marchita y desaparece sin que nadie la eche de menos. 6. Jaguar. Propietario: Tata Motors (a través de Jaguar Land Rover). País: Reino Unido / India. ¿Por qué merece desaparecer? Su campaña de "rebranding" fue un ejercicio de egolatría sin enseñar un solo coche. Han enfadado a sus clientes fieles y han desaparecido del mapa. Esta apuesta de "todo o nada" es de una arrogancia sin límites. Si los nuevos eléctricos, que serán carísimos, no son un éxito absoluto, Jaguar no tendrá nada a lo que recurrir. Y será una gran pérdida para todos los aficionados. 7. Lancia. Propietario: Stellantis. País: Italia. Se merece estar en esta lista por el abandono y el maltrato al que ha sido sometida por sus propio dueños. 8. Lucid Motors. Propietario: Lucid Group, Inc. (Principal accionista: Fondo de Inversión Pública de Arabia Saudí). País: Estados Unidos / Arabia Saudí. ¿Por qué merece desaparecer? Porque su supervivencia depende exclusivamente del dinero del fondo soberano de Arabia Saudí. No es una empresa viable por sí misma. Su producción es mínima y no hace más que quemar miles de millones. Es una empresa artificialmente sostenida que demuestra que un buen producto no es suficiente sin un plan de negocio realista. 9. SEAT. Propietario: Grupo Volkswagen. País: España / Alemania. ¿Por qué es un final merecido? Porque, estratégicamente, Volkswagen decidió que no había sitio para SEAT, a medio camino entre Skoda y la propia Volkswagen. En lugar de potenciarla, crearon Cupra para quedarse con la parte más rentable del pastel: los coches más aspiracionales. Han canibalizado a la madre para alimentar a la hija. 10. Wey / Ora. Propietario: Great Wall Motor (GWM). País: China. Merecen estar aquí como representantes de la arrogancia de algunos fabricantes chinos, que pensaban que llegar a Europa era un camino de rosas. El mercado europeo es maduro y muy competitivo. No basta con hacer un coche aceptable; necesitas una estrategia de precios, de marca y de postventa sólida. Muchas de estas nuevas marcas desaparecerán de nuestro mercado tan rápido como llegaron. Conclusión. La industria está en un punto de inflexión brutal, y la arrogancia, la falta de visión o la mala gestión son pecados capitales. Estas diez marcas son la prueba de que en este negocio no se vive del pasado, sino de la capacidad de acertar con el futuro.

A tiny, overlooked component is bringing giant assembly lines to a halt. We dig into the Nexperia saga—European control, Chinese export blocks, and a packaging choke point—and explain why the “boring” diodes and transistors tucked into door locks, HVAC, and wiper motors matter as much as any cutting-edge processor. When each vehicle hides 300 to 600 of these legacy chips, one missing part can park an entire line, and that's exactly what Honda, Volkswagen, and Nissan are starting to face.We connect the supply chain dots to real-world outcomes: reduced shifts, delayed models, and dealer backlogs. Then we pivot to a sharp recalls roundup, where Ford's record-setting year meets moonroof deflectors, defrost issues, and camera failures, while tires and lighting glitches hit other brands from Cadillac to Fiat and Ferrari. It's a tour of what happens when quality, parts availability, and service capacity collide—and what owners can do now to stay safe and informed.For a breather, we fire up Name The Sold Car Price, comparing a 1952 Studebaker Commander, a 1965 MGB, an '85 F-250, a 2002 Thunderbird, and a stunning 1936 Packard 120. You'll hear what moved, what stalled, and what these numbers say about condition, provenance, and taste. We also map the calendar for Veterans Day cruise-ins, toy drives, and big regional shows—community checkpoints where car culture thrives, knowledge spreads, and enthusiasts help each other keep their machines on the road.If you care about how cars are built, why they break, and where the culture is headed, this conversation brings clarity and a few laughs.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1184: Today we cover Toyota's response to potential chip shortages, new research showing improved employee satisfaction at dealerships, and what Gen Z travelers want most from their hotel stays.Show Notes with links:Toyota CEO Koji Sato says the automaker isn't facing an immediate chip shortage despite rising concerns after China blocked exports from Dutch chipmaker Nexperia. The move is part of an escalating global tech standoff involving national security concerns.The Dutch government seized control of Nexperia last month over fears its Chinese parent, Wingtech, could pose a security risk—prompting China to halt exports.These chips aren't high-end processors; they're critical legacy semiconductors used in steering, lighting, and power systems.Toyota says it's stable “for now,” but rivals like Nissan report they only have enough chips to last through early November.The Alliance for Automotive Innovation warns that U.S. vehicle production could be disrupted as soon as next monthCDK's 2025 Dealership Workplace Study shows job satisfaction is rising and fewer employees plan to leave, but challenges around stress and long-term retention persist.Satisfaction jumped to 82%, up from 74% last year, while only 22% plan to leave in the next six months—down from 31%.Just 49% expect to stay at their dealership over the next 5-10 years, and only 26% would recommend auto retail as a career.“Dealerships that thrive will be the ones that listen, adapt and lead with empathy,” said CDK VP Bruce Johnson.A new study by researchers Huggland and Okumus reveals how Gen Z's travel habits and expectations are reshaping the guest experience. Their feedback from a 3-year mystery shopping study shows where hotels need to step up—and fast.Gen Z travelers prioritize convenience, safety, and intuitive tech over traditional brand loyalty.Digital check-ins, intuitive room controls, and reliable Wi-Fi aren't perks—they're baseline expectations.“Sometimes the little things can mean a lot,” said one Gen Z traveler. “We want crystal clear instructions and not have to ask for help.”0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier0:45 The halloween costumes around the office today2:53 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with Foureyes3:20 The Nexperia Chip Crisis5:44 CDK's Dealership Employee Satisfaction Rises to 84%9:20 What Gen Z Is Saying About HospitalityJoin 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/

This episode is sponsored by Lockton, click here to learn more Watch the Full Video on YouTube - click hereWhen people in the automotive world talk about leaders who bring out the best in others, Kim Less's name always surfaces. As Vice President of aftersales for Nissan Americas, she leads a team of more than 1,600 people in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and South America.Her leadership philosophy? Constant gentle pressure. The phrase, which came from Danny Meyer, perfectly captures how Kim shows up daily. To her, "constant" means persistence and accountability. "Gentle" means having your team's back while guiding them toward growth. And "pressure" is the drive to win, move with urgency, and deliver. Together, they form the balance she strives for: leading with calm confidence but never without expectation.At Nissan, Kim has spent years redefining what aftersales means inside the organization. For her, aftersales isn't an "afterthought," it's the engine that fuels brand loyalty and future sales. Leading across multiple countries means managing different cultures, languages, and expectations. Kim talks about how she's brought the entire Americas region together as one unified team. She does that by traveling to meet teams in person and building relationships and credibility. Over time, those consistent actions turned into a shared culture built on mutual respect and accountability.As the automotive industry evolves, Nissan is focused on simplifying its processes to make quicker decisions. Kim recalls working with the dealer advisory board to streamline 60 dealer-facing programs; removing or simplifying two-thirds to sharpen focus on what truly matters. To her, simplification isn't about doing less; it's about removing distractions so teams can move faster and stay focused on impact.She ties that same thinking to the importance of trust inside organizations. Once people trust each other and the data and systems they rely on, they no longer waste time validating every decision. That's when speed naturally follows. She also reflects on the personal side of leadership and the lessons from finding balance. Earlier in her career, while raising twins, she often hesitated to step away from work for family events. Over time, she learned that setting boundaries wasn't a weakness but a necessity. Now, she mentors others, urging them to "own their calendar," set limits, and protect their well-being. It's advice she lives by and passes down to emerging leaders who often feel pressured to choose between career and personal life.Themes discussed in this episode:How Kim Less applies “constant gentle pressure” to balance accountability, empathy, and performance in leading Nissan Aftersales AmericasThe leadership lessons Kim Less learned from Saturn and GM that shaped her people-first approach at NissanWhy calm leadership and consistency drive stronger team alignment across multiple cultures and regions in the AmericasThe business case for aftersales as a core growth engine that strengthens brand loyalty and customer lifetime valueThe transformation of Nissan's Aftersales organization through simplification, streamlined programs, and faster decision-makingThe process of uniting 1,600 employees across North and South America under one shared vision and operating modelThe importance of visiting markets and building relationships in person to earn credibility and alignmentHow setting boundaries, owning your calendar, and leading with authenticity sustain energy and focus in high-pressure rolesFeatured guest:

We are in the middle of a battery boom, for EVs and even more for BESS. What's really happening in the electric vehicle (EV) market? Is China dominating the field, or are serious alternatives emerging? What roles are Europe, the U.S., and other global regions playing? Which chemistries are winning out, and how are prices trending?  These are the questions we ask ourselves every day — and today, Gerard and Laurent are thrilled to have someone who can help us answer them. Laurent and Gerard are joined by the brilliant Iola Hughes, Head of Research at Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, following its acquisition of Rho Motion.  Iola leads research across the battery demand spectrum — from EVs to stationary storage — managing forecasts, tracking battery chemistries, and analyzing the impact of everything from regulation to OEM strategies and technology roadmaps.   According to Benchmark Mineral Intelligence and Rho Motion, as of 2025:The Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) sector is growing at 40% year-over-yearThe EV market is expanding by 25% year-over-year But perhaps the most surprising trend is that forecasts made just 18 months ago are being exceeded — in nearly every region except the United States. There, the current administration appears to be kneecapped the industry by rolling back both incentives (like tax credits) and regulations (such as CAFE and emissions standards). Nissan in the US is moving back from EVs to hybrids while GM passes billions of impairments.  On the industrial side, it's increasingly a case of China versus the world. China now has the capacity to manufacture a staggering 50 million vehicles per year, far outpacing domestic demand and sparking concerns about overcapacity.  In summary: we are witnessing a growing divide in the global battery and EV space. China is clearly in the lead. Europe and others are racing to catch up. And the U.S.? It's at risk of falling further behind — not for lack of potential, but because of political and policy choices.https://www.benchmarkminerals.com/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/iolahughes/  https://x.com/RhoMoIola  Stunning visuals from FT on the development of batteries (most of the sources came from Benchmark)  https://ig.ft.com/mega-batteries

Think all great salespeople are born talkers with years of experience? Think again. Matt Poepsel chats with Jim Speredelozzi, who flips the traditional sales script on its head. Jim shares how he went from 90-day quitters to building a thriving 150-person sales team, all by focusing on mindset, process, and hiring based on who people are, not just what they've done. You'll hear how he uses science to build strong sales teams, why being a "business therapist" might be your ultimate sales superpower, and what every new sales manager needs to know before stepping into leadership.
