In an interview with Bloomberg that month, Ghosn insisted, “I know my limits” and they may be tested in the months ahead as he seeks to turnaround a third auto firm, lead the world’s fourth largest auto group and deal with pressures from US President Donald Trump for carmakers to create jobs in the US. If he can repeat a similar feat to the turnaround of ailing carmaker Nissan at the end of the 1990s, taking the Japanese firm from a $6bn loss to a $2.7bn profit in just one year, Ghosn will surely cement his position as one of the automotive industry’s greats.
