Having worked years in the branding space, we always said, "there is no such thing as a merger." Even with seeming equals, one tribe always dominates the other.
DAIMLER Chrysler culture clash abruptly ending their merger of equals. Americans and Germans failed in that partnership. Germans adopted fixed 3 year plan which the Americans kept changing. Now STELLANTIS Peugeot and FIAT stuck with Chrysler Dodge Jeep.

Nissan's board of directors have been scamming for years. They tried to pin the blame on Goshen but he was able to skip and not jailed. The hens have come to roost. I feel sorry for the workers who are punished for the sins of the board as the rest are only employees, even the president of the company. That's how Japan works.
I don’t know Nissan’s situation, but I do know how US carmakers handled this. They sold huge amounts of assets, became much smaller, and called the money from the sale as profit.
Saw that. Tempting but worrying at the same time. My ev list for buy in 2 years time is mg and byd and Tesla with mg being the most realistic. But a lot can change in that time.
I am on Pins and Needles waiting for my warranty replacement battery for my Leaf! I hope it arrives soon! Meanwhile the Nissan dealer says nothing to worry about, it's all fake news. Hmmm.
If the company is sold, or even if they declare bankruptcy, someone will take over the service business. A car company doesn't just disappear overnight; they have legal obligations to warranty customers etc.
@ Fisker was a tiny startup; Nissan is a huge company by comparison, with millions of vehicles on the road, thousands of dealers and repair centers, parts suppliers etc.
If Honda can suck life out of Nissan and Mitsubishi they will. Otherwise, I cant see the value of three struggling companies joining without either of them having a solid strong ground to stand on.
Under normal circumstance, it doesn't make sense for Honda to help Nissan but this is a bailout setting up by Japanese gov. I doubt they will allow Honda to pull out

What I really don't understand is why legacy auto has soooo much debt! How can they run with so much debt! What are they doing? Burning money in the skip out the back?
The debt isn’t so much the problem, it’s the ability to manage it. Nissan will have to restructure operations, likely specialise on certain SKU’s, innovate … but … I just can’t see it happening… One thing that isn’t mentioned is that the Chinese government subsidises Chinese brands, and no foreign brand can compete with that either
@@Mixos_place This is true and why I pay attention to both. Both make statements that are on a side. By independently looking into each others claims you can normally work out what the facts are - and it is usually more complicated than either side says.
The Japanese government doesn't agree with you, sir. They can print lots of Yen and keep all of their automotive workers employed if they so choose....just watch...you think Honda "wanted' to buy Nissan?

Nissan Honda merger can only happen if japan govt intervenes with putting billions of usd in Nissan otherwise no chance because if merger happens then Honda can also go down if they invest in Nissan
Oh, I think the merger will happen, for the very reason you cite. This merger was generated by the Japanese govt., and they are going to make sure it happens.
Leaf sales in Australia Don’t laugh 😂 The sales figures given for 2024 were 357 units sold, which was a decrease from the 484 units sold in 2023. and there was a price cut by $10k May 2024 Price Cut: Nissan cut the price of the Leaf to $39,990 drive-away for the base model and $49,990 for the Leaf e+. However, this was a limited-time offer ending on May 31, 2024. No specific sales figures are provided for this period alone. For this year • January 2025 Price Cut: The price was further reduced to $34,990 drive-away for the base model and $44,990 for the Leaf e+ Given the drop in sales from 2023 to 2024 with the price cut expect to see a further drop in sales with the 2025 price cut by $5k Sometimes people don’t buy because it’s cheap. It’s considered a low quality product which no one buys
I feel really sorry for the people in the Nissan Sunderland factory who will lose their jobs when the factory closes. However, they did vote for Brexit because they don't like foreigners, so they will be able to take advantage of all the Brexit benefits.
Thats not going to happen as its the only one in europe that makes for nissan plus they have just built a brand new 500 million battwry factory opposite it may not always be nissan but will always make cars
@@Dw91-k8n They have not built a new battery factory, they have said they will. Not the same thing, especially as they are about to go bankrupt. Nissan UK is only making ICE cars at the moment.
They made old leaf there aswell as they have plant 1 already this is plant 2 and theres plans for plant 3 aswell enjoy the video and on this occasion just accept your wrong i live here mate i noo lol
HONDA quit UK. Whereas Nissan big investor in UK making QASHAI and JUKE with parts from Renault France. Jaguar production on hold. Land-Rover US sales at risk with new US tariffs coming soon. BMW-MINI moving some EV production to China. UK made cars to face new EU tariffs?
I wish there was a way for the people to buy Nissan out and make it peoples own company. If Nissan is to be bailed out, the people should take ownership of the company.
@@andyfreeze4072 I worked for this company for 15 yrs. They wait forever to make changes. I saw the new Kicks and Armada 3.5yrs ago and it looks the same as what they showed me. So that tells me you are running 3.5yr old tech so that should tell you they are extremely behind.
Nissan is def doomed. Their EV leaf is literally a joke. Higher price than BYD or Neta or any other Chinese EV with 50% less range and way worse interior.
POS car transmission ,hard to fix poorly situated key components they are not the only ones with this problem. Prices going up ,poor quality seems to be a common problem in the car market? To much flashy gizmos each trying to out do each other but engine build and quality engineering is out the window.

I agree Sam, I think Honda should just let Nissan go under, then buy them out and absorb the Nissan factories under the Honda badge
Honda sales are going south too, why would they need more factories?
@@andyfreeze4072 good point! Maybe Chinese ev’s just absorb them all then haha
Agree zero chance of that happening. Bye bye Nissan.
Another way to increase profits is to cut costs. Cut employees, close factories.
That would result in less cars made and sold and tanking profits
They were leading the EV race
Nisan Leaf best selling EV worldwide
2011-2014 and 2016
but snatched defeat in the jaws of victory
They need to now snatch victory in the jaws of defeat
They sold a lot of Leafs, but did they generate a profit on them? Selling cars for a loss is not the jaws of victory.
@@christianlibertarian5488nobody profits at first. The professionals increase volume and decrease cost.
Well they slashed the price in Australia for the Nissan Leaf so that should make 2 more sales
Every little bit counts
lol 🎉
Sadly they don't make profit on the leaf

3x increase in profits shouldn’t be hard. 3 times nothing is still nothing.
2:43 That Fisker front looks nice!
in Ireland they offering to buy 2025 nissan and upgrade 2026 model for free dont think its gonna save them from whats coming...

First time watching your vlog and very good. Subscribed and like the approach. Enjoyed thank you.
Awesome, thank you!

Really?

@@ChickensAndGardening Did that apply to Fisker? Nope. Owners are on their own.

Your warranty replacement battery will be a refurbished one. Just a heads up
The best way to get a Nissan in usa and canada is to lease a vehicle for max 2 yrs do not finance other wise you may loose a huge amount 😮
Three-way merger is Japanese government arranged marriage. Profit target for Nissan is Honda-s Japanese way of saying no.
Out with the old in with the new. That's my thoughts.
If Honda can suck life out of Nissan and Mitsubishi they will. Otherwise, I cant see the value of three struggling companies joining without either of them having a solid strong ground to stand on.

@@hondacrxxx forgetting the fact that Japanese gov has for decades been subsidising its automotive industry.
I'm guessing Renault will eventually own all of Nissan.
If Nissan could triple their income in the next year or two
they wouldn't need to be bailed out.
I like the new Honda EV. They don't need Nissan. Let them fall and then buy them for scraps.
On another note. Is it possible to charge a shark Ute with a portable 2kva generator if you were stuck out in the bush somewhere.
They'll hire the Enron accountants. They're out of jail by now.
Drowning man , it’s stupid.😮
The sale of ice vehicles is declining year on year. Nissan is in the oversupplly squeeze. With no compelling new product, they are already dead.
no scale = no value. Solid state batteries without massive production = nothing

Nissan are nice cars. They just have to close some plants and shout down the develop section and that's it. New cars get copied by honda
Why doesn't Ford or GM buy an interest in Nissan?
😂 lmao. GM and ford are both in bad situation. You expect someone drawing to save someone drawing deep
Profit equal revenue less costs.
Costs cutting coming. It will be train wreck

Nissan only can be save by using CATL or BYD batteries; because Nissan battery degrade very quick
I dont think you understand the nature of batteries nor how nissan uses them. Suffice to say just wacking batteries in isnt going to help
