Both would still operate under their brands but with a new joint holding company as parent.

According to the press release, it could include standardizing vehicle platforms, unifying research and development teams, and optimizing manufacturing systems and facilities. This could help cut costs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">In the US, Nissan sells large pickup trucks and SUVs that Honda doesn&#8217;t offer, alongside more experience in EVs and plug-in electric vehicles. On the other side, Honda has relatively stable financials while Nissan has been struggling, particularly at home in Japan.<\/p>\n<div class=\"col-body md:hidden\">\n<div class=\"mx-auto mb-5 flex flex-col overflow-hidden rounded-xl pb-5 shadow-[0_0_1px_rgba(200,160,251,.63),0_2px_6px_1px_#F3E6FE]\">\n<h4 class=\"m-auto block px-4 pb-4 pt-2 text-lg font-bold leading-6\">Trusted news and daily delights, right in your inbox<\/h4>\n<p class=\"m-auto px-4 pb-4 text-sm font-normal\">See for yourself \u2014 The Yodel is the go-to source for daily news, entertainment and feel-good stories.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">\u2013 Mat Smith<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\"><strong>The biggest tech stories you missed<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\"><em>Get this delivered daily direct to your inbox.<\/em><a data-i13n=\"cpos:7;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/about\/newsletter\/\" data-ylk=\"slk:Subscribe right here!;cpos:7;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><em> Subscribe right here!<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"col-body mb-4 text-lg font-bold\" data-jump-link-target=\"\" id=\"mostly-for-notifications\">Mostly for notifications.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">According to the Financial Times, Meta may add displays to its Ray-Ban smart glasses collaboration.

Harbour Masters, the team behind the project, used a tool that converts the original game ROM into PC executable code, so it doesn\u2019t use any proprietary Nintendo code. That means it\u2019s technically legal. (I\u2019m sure Nintendo is looking into it.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">Like previous ports, <em>Starship<\/em> features all kinds of modern bells and whistles to set itself apart from the 1997 original. The frame rate is higher and the port includes frame smoothing technology for better visuals. There\u2019s also another major benefit: It\u2019s moddable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\"><a data-i13n=\"cpos:11;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/gaming\/pc\/fans-made-a-native-star-fox-64-pc-port-with-some-modern-flourishes-174612229.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Continue reading.;cpos:11;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><strong>Continue reading.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/tech\/the-morning-after-engadget-newsletter-120830875.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Honda and Nissan have officially confirmed the rumors that they&rsquo;re pursuing a merger.
