Honda and GM=General Motors of the United States have entered into a study to further strengthen the partnership.

In addition to the development of electric vehicles up to now, in the future, we will consider cooperation in R&D, joint procurement of parts, and services that connect the car and the Internet to the United States.

According to the announcement, Honda and GM have signed a memorandum of understanding to collaborate in a wide range of fields such as R&D and joint procurement of parts for the North American market such as the United States.



Specifically, we are considering standardizing the platform that will be the base of the car, including the engine and motor, and will start collaborating from the beginning of next year at the earliest.



We will also consider cooperation in a service that connects the car and the Internet called Connected.



Honda and GM have already cooperated with each other in the development of electric vehicles, and with this memorandum we will step up further strengthening of the relationship, but Honda does not think of a partnership with capital. I am.



It is said that the automobile industry is in a transitional period, which is said to occur once every 100 years, and the competition involving IT companies is intensifying, and manufacturers around the world are embarking on business integration and strengthening of capital relationships.
