NADA Vice Chairman Paul Walser reflects on COVID-19 challenges and looks ahead to 2021

With 26 dealerships, Walser Automotive Group is the 56th largest auto dealer in the country. The group’s leadership shifted in 2017 as Paul Walser, then CEO, became Chairman of the group. Walser went on to serve as National Automobile Dealers Association‘s industry relations committee chairman working alongside franchised dealers to address issues and concerns of members across the nation.

In February, Walser took over as Vice Chairman, which positions him to become Chairman of NADA in 2021. Today, we speak to him about the current state of the auto industry and NADA’s plans moving forward.
