Nissan reportedly tells Honda it will end merger talks

Nissan is a sinking ship. Better get to the life boats.

Honda is smart to take quick and best decision

Good, Nissan can go down alone.

Good For Honda.

Best news this year so far.

""Nissan, which said it will cut 9,000 jobs worldwide and reduce its global production capacity by 20 percent after reporting a more than 90 percent drop in net profit in the April-September period, has not come up with a detailed restructuring plan that convinces Honda, the sources said.""

The problem with Nissan is not the hardworking people on the floors or the engineers and programmers the problem is the core of the company the is as rotten as it could get.

Arrogant and short sighted CEO's never make it.

BYD and two other Chinese EV auto makers have indicated in the past that they are ready to talk with Nissan if approached.

BYD and two other Chinese EV auto makers[...]

That would hurt the Japanese ultranationalists so badly.

Honda dodged a bullet.

Ultranationalists have nothing to do with the automotive industry. What a d/a comment.

Problem solved by calling the merged company HONDATSUN.

The Honsan is dead before arrival? I knew it wouldn't work, just not this quickly!

Nissan died when they kicked out Ghosn. He did well to escape the corrupt "justice."

Nissan is a sinking ship....glad I bought a Toyota Yaris Cross instead of the new Note.

The upper echelon cronies of Nissan have no clue about how badly they damaged the reputation of the company. I'm talking about the very top group, not the majority of the hardworking engineers, designed and factory workers who have been and will further be harmed by clueless "leadership". They made themselves a toxic mess.

Ultranationalists have nothing to do with the automotive industry.

How I wish that were true.

I've personally witnessed German, French, Japanese and American automotive companies make economically insane decisions for pedantic patriotic reasons.

I'd wondered why BYD, Changan and Chery all set up shop in Minato Mirai rather than Tokyo. I suppose they read the future better than me: one of them won't have far to move once Nissan is forced to give up it's GHQ.

The Nissan board will have to swallow their pride at some point or risk losing it all. Lack of commitment to the Renault partnership that saved them 25 years ago has seen them recommit to stagnation and likely oblivion.
