Recently, former Nissan Chairman Carlos Ghosn spoke out again, slamming Nissan's electric vehicle plan, mocking Nissan for being very timid and should speed up the electric vehicle plan to ensure competitiveness.
Ghosn said that the latecomers of electric vehicles, including Tesla, have more advantages over traditional car companies than China's new forces. China's new forces are betting heavily on electric vehicles, and as a latecomer to the auto industry, they must invest in the latest, most advanced technologies to remain competitive, Chinese have done a great job in this regard.
He warned established car companies such as Nissan that the speed of transformation will determine who is the final winner, and it is necessary to accelerate the transformation and remain competitive in the rapidly changing pattern.
For Nissan's announcement of the 2030 electrification plan (spending about $18 billion to electrify 50% of global sales by 2030), Ghosn said the pace was still too slow. Nissan is really in a very bad position in this race, they have no vision, no goals, and they are ignorant of the huge technological changes that are taking place.
Ghosn, a pioneer of electric vehicles, threw himself into the technology 10 years ago with overly optimistic expectations. He said the hot electric car market now proves that he exited the Nissan Leaf in 2010, perhaps prematurely, but not wrong. When he launched his first electric car to the public, everyone laughed at him.
Ghosn said he is currently working in Lebanon on consulting on electric vehicles.
Pay attention to the ECar car trend, the car news already knows!
