Volvo Car Malaysia Appoints Nalin Jain as the New Managing Director, Replacing Lennart Stegland


Volvo Car Malaysia will have a new Managing Director starting 1st March 2018. Mr Nalin Jain (pictured above), will continue the responsibilities of the current Managing Director, Mr Lennart Stegland, beginning March 1, 2018. 


Nalin Jain was the Chief Financial Officer of Volvo Auto India and has over 20 years of experience in the automotive, consulting, and technology fields. Mr Jain holds a Master’s Degree in Engineering from State University of New York and an MBA from the Sloan School of Management in MIT. Mr Jain, who hails from India is quite familiar with Malaysia, especially Kuala Lumpur as his previous line of work brought him to this country before. 


As for Mr Stegland (pictured to the left of Mr Jain), who will be sorely missed by the automotive community here, he will be leaving Volvo Car after 40 years of service with the Swedish company. He had the opportunity to undertake leading positions in Research and Development, Marketing and Sales, and Managing various National Sales Companies throughout the world. 

Having attended many Volvo Car events over the past three years, I would like to thank Mr Stegland for his contribution and dedication to the company as well as it being an absolute pleasure to have met him and those chats that I've managed have with him during his tenure here. I wish him all the best in his future undertakings. 

So anyway, as one leaves, another arrives to carry on the torch. So please join us in congratulating Mr Jain in his new role. He will have large shoes to fill as Volvo Car Malaysia had achieved some impressive milestones these past couple of years.
