SAIC Motor has underlined its ambitious plans for the Middle East by announcing the appointment of Tom Lee as its new regional head. Lee’s appointment as managing director marks his return to a region where he previously enjoyed success as Hyundai Motor Co.’s vice president and head of operations in the Middle East and Africa. The move is also a major statement of intent by the brand, which is China’s biggest car manufacturer and is ranked 46th on the Fortune Global 500 list. Using his knowledge and understanding of the Middle East, Lee is tasked with expanding the company’s presence and enhancing its sales network and market structure in the region.

Savings in purchasing, engineering and manufacturing were behind most if the €700 million synergy improvement. “The growing cooperation across the Alliance is delivering strong benefits for the members of the Alliance, reflected by the economies of scale, technological breakthroughs and innovations that are being shared between Renault and Nissan,” said Carlos Ghosn, chairman and chief executive of the Renault-Nissan Alliance. “We are on track to realize synergies of €5.5 billion in 2018, even before taking into account the contributions from Mitsubishi Motors, our new Alliance partner.”
