Makoto Uchida

CEO Japan

Makoto Uchida is the CEO of Nissan, who has been at the forefront of the company's efforts to navigate through challenging times in the automotive industry. Under his leadership, Nissan has faced significant declines in sales and operational difficulties, particularly after underestimating the demand for hybrid vehicles in the U.S. market. Uchida's recent decision to terminate merger discussions with Honda highlights the tensions within Nissan, as he insisted on equal treatment in negotiations despite the company's weakened position.
