A long-stalled alliance among Honda, Mitsubishi, and Nissan is gaining momentum after the automakers revived plans to jointly develop and manufacture electric vehicles. The partnership, which had been abandoned in 2024 due to regulatory and strategic hurdles, is now focusing on shared pickup truck production as a key project. Industry analysts suggest the renewed collaboration could strengthen the companies’ competitiveness in the growing electric vehicle market. Details on how the revived effort will differ from previous attempts remain unclear, but the move signals a shift toward deeper cooperation.
