On a recent trip to India, the media repeatedly asked me why the Alliance has chosen to work with multiple partners in that market.  Partnerships and strategic alliances are not new for the auto industry, but the way in which the Alliance has chosen to work in India seems to raise constant questions.

Let’s clear up some confusion which arose at the Geneva Motor Show about the Nissan V-Platform. The V stands for versatile and that’s exactly what it is.

What is the Renault Nissan-Alliance? Why has it proved to be the most enduring and successful of any partnerships within the auto industry?  Where will it be at the end of this decade? Until now we haven't really shouted about the Alliance’s successes – successes achieved when similar automotive partnerships have failed.
