New CEO of Lotus...

I'm not really concerned, just wondering what folks here know. The CEO of Lotus gig has been a revolving door and each not CEO is reported to be the 'da man'. I hope this guy is too.

He's not the new CEO of Lotus, he's the new CEO of Lotus Holdings, which apparently will control LCU and Lotus Engineering in the USA. Arnie will remain CEO of Lotus USA. Thread with more info below.

imo, just another in a long line of "suits" that will take credit for a product that has already been developed and do very little to further the product in NA.

Look what he did for Mazda and Izuzu, they are powerhouses now...

Yep,
Lotus UK in all their brilliance, brings in a bean counter AFTER Arnie J. and a few others have done all the work. Another great move on Lotus UKs part.

I'm sure he'll be in the forefront taking credit for all of it.
