After scrapping Honda merger, Nissan may struggle to find new partner

Nissan has absolutely no one to blame but itself. The last couple of decades has seen seen them producing uninspired, unreliable, and downright forgettable cars have driven customers away, and the Carlos Ghosn fiasco exposed the company's internal rot to the world in the most embarrassing way possible.

The fact that Honda took one look at this sinking ship and ran for the hills should tell you everything.

I think the most surprising thing here is how Nissan are acting like not being able to find a partner is really not a big deal. Well, it is - their "lack of urgency" is the perfect example of why they're in this mess to begin with. If they keep this up, they won’t have to worry about partnerships at all - because who would want to partner with a company that's on a fast track to irrelevance?!

Nissan: going... going... ghosn.

Nissan now in a doom loop with a hyper competitive global market transitioning to EV. Renault doing much better in EV, share price performance of Renault would have made Nissan MORE valuable than Honda today...

Maybe it's time to give Carlos G., the FIXER, a call?

I just don’t see the Japanese government letting them fail.

They got here by running the same way Stellantis did…Bad product decisions, constant budget cuts and silly tie ups to sub-par European makers

In the US Nissan has the reputation of being the car you buy when your credit score is sub 500. That’s hard to shake even if you do start making competitive products.

"""I wonder if a sense of crisis was really shared by Nissan's management team," said Seiji Sugiura, senior analyst at Tokai Tokyo Intelligence Laboratory Co. "Their management decision is rather naive.""

Not just Naive but Ignorant and self destructive.

Start firing at the top then go down till you hit medium level management is what needs to be done at Nissan.

This once a giant and well managed company did so well for itself and Japan until it has fallen in the wrong hands.

No one wants the Nissan rotten apple in their barrel.

Burn baby burn, or call uncle Carlos and pay him a 747 load of cash. Glad my wish is coming true

Nissan is more than $15 billion in debt and it is a figure so astronomical that it has almost no solution. Either a foreign multinational buys it 100% or Nissan disappears completely.

There is no more.

Executives at other auto firms don't want to get Ghosned. Merging with Nissan is bad juju.

Nissan top execs dug their own grave. The pity is that the vast majority of the employees are highly skilled, diligent workers. Sadly they are led by inept dotards.
