Former Nissan chairman talks about motivations and risksThe potential merger of two Japanese automaker giants, Nissan and Honda, amid the former’s financial woes continues to be a much-discussed topic. The implications of such a deal may radically alter not just the Japanese auto market, but the global one as well.

“Today, the Chinese automakers are on the winning side. They are the largest exporter of cars, largest makers of EVs…” he shares. “It’s a very disciplined workforce.
