Redefining The Car Ownership Model w. Alain Visser | Lynk & Co

in ,

Join us in this episode as we sit down with Alain Visser, CEO of Lynk & Co, an innovative automotive brand that aims to revolutionize the traditional car ownership model. In this thought-provoking conversation, we delve into the concept of sustainability in car manufacturing and ownership, and how Lynk & Co is addressing this crucial issue by making car usage more efficient and practical.

We also explore the prevailing perception that more options equate to better choices, and how Lynk & Co's simplified approach to car options challenges this notion. Alain shares valuable insights on the benefits of their car lending system, which allows for a more collaborative and cost-effective approach to car ownership.

Enjoy,
