Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn is pressing the Japanese member of the alliance to reach an 8 percent global market share by the end of March 2017 – up from a 6.7 percent share last year. Ghosn expects sales growth next year in Europe, the U.S. and China. He is also bullish about Renault-Nissan’s partnership with Daimler and proud of the role his automakers have played in the trend toward offering electrified powertrains. Ghosn recently met with News Editor Dave Guilford and U.S. Mid-South Bureau Chief Lindsay Chappell of Automotive News Europe sister publication Automotive News.
