Transforming Car Buying Amidst a Pandemic: Nissan's Financial Facilitation Challenge

The quintessential car purchase culminates in a financial transaction, predominantly facilitated by bank loans. Historically, this necessitated physical interactions, either at showrooms or bank branches. Amidst a pandemic, Nissan sought to bridge this gap, aiming to integrate financial facilitation within their digital platform, thereby simplifying decision-making for the potential buyer.
