Honda-Nissan Merger SHOCKER: CEO Must Go or No Deal!
No more waiting in line, Honda is reportedly open to resuming merger talks with Nissan, but there’s a catch. According to insiders, Honda will only come back to the negotiation table if Nissan’s CEO, Makoto Uchida, steps down. The automotive industry is buzzing with speculation as this potential mega-merger could shake up the market and impact everything from car sales to Malaysia’s petrol price trends.
What’s Happening Between Honda and Nissan?
For years, Nissan has struggled with internal conflicts, declining sales, and the fallout from the Carlos Ghosn saga. The proposed merger with Honda was initially seen as a way to stabilize operations, but negotiations broke down. Now, Honda is reconsidering—on one condition: Uchida must go. This power play signals Honda’s intent to take control rather than enter into an equal partnership.
How This Affects the Malaysian Market
Malaysia’s auto industry is highly sensitive to global moves like this. If the merger happens, it could mean:
Better resale value for Nissan and Honda vehicles.
Changes in insurance rates (insurance Malaysia and insurance kereta policies may be revised based on brand consolidation).
Potential impact on petrol prices as manufacturers shift focus toward EVs.
New scrap car policies as older Nissan and Honda models get phased out.
