The company&#039;s CEO was referring to the multiple issues it has had with the 737 Max, the 777X, and its Starliner space program, among others. These reputation blows were massive, leading Ortberg to state only a cultural change would put things back on track.

<title>Volvo Showed Jaguar How To Do Genius Advertising, the Brits Still Wanted To &quot;Copy Nothing&quot;</title>
<link>https://www.autoevolution.com/news/volvo-showed-jaguar-how-to-do-genius-advertising-the-brits-still-wanted-to-copy-nothing-243149.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Jaguar shocked everyone with their &quot;Copy Nothing&quot; campaign, which no one understood and became the laugh of the internet. The failure was even more obvious after the internet discovered the emotional Volvo EX90 commercial shot by Hoyte Van Hoytema, the cinematographer of Interstellar and Oppenheimer. The funny thing is Jaguar&#039;s campaign suddenly turned everyone into a Volvo fan, although the EX90 ad was posted in September.

For a brand so hopelessly tied to the ways of the old school, one that&#039;s been defined for so long by brutish exteriors with burley engines to match, finding their way in the electric world of the future was going to bring some changes.

<title>2025 (European) Car of the Year Shows How Lost the Automotive Industry Is</title>

<description><![CDATA[It is inevitable to feel like a grumpy old man when the only thing that pushes you to write an article is the sad situation in which the automotive industry is. Not even hypercars move the enthusiasm needle anymore, so it is not worth mentioning common vehicles. The latest example of that lack of creativity and passion is the 2025 (European) Car of the Year list of finalists. If you have not heard of it yet, that does not surprise me.

<title>Tackling Industrial Capacity - Why the Automotive Industry Has Lost It</title>
<link>https://www.autoevolution.com/news/tackling-industrial-capacity-why-the-automotive-industry-has-lost-it-241872.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have recently read a text that made me think about something I had never considered from this perspective. It talks about war and its strategies, but it applies really well to a series of other subjects. Thanks to it, I realized that the automotive industry is losing its industrial capacity, which will certainly sound absurd when we discuss idle capacity in several car plants around the world.

<title>GM&#039;s New Strategy for Batteries Shows NMC Cells Are Not an Asset. They&#039;re a Liability</title>

<description><![CDATA[I read that GM decided to ditch the Ultium name with some surprise. After all, the company has been promoting it for years. The articles about that suggest that it has something to do with the choice of another chemistry for the lithium-ion cells the company will use, as if Ultium was a name just for nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) batteries. I have not found anything that explains the decision, but that is now just a curiosity. The core news here is that GM may have realized NMC c...

Some of them still do that, but only with classic vehicles. Don&#039;t ask them to do that with modern machines because it will not work.

<title>Another Study Says Lithium-Ion Cells Will Get Cheaper, But That&#039;s Wishful Thinking</title>

<description><![CDATA[Battery electric vehicle (BEV) advocates frequently rejoice with studies and statistics. They show these cars are less prone to fires, but they never take into account that BEVs are much newer than the old internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles that eventually go down in a blaze. They also show cost parity between their darlings and ICE vehicles is always just two years away from whenever the latest study goes out.
