On February 7, according to media reports, people familiar with the matter said that after the collapse of merger negotiations with Honda Motor, Nissan Motor is open to cooperation with new partners, and one of the potential partners is Foxconn. It is reported that at the end of 2024, there were media reports that Hon Hai Group, the parent company of Foxconn Technology Group, was trying to contact Nissan Motor and acquire its controlling stake. Hon Hai Group not only hoped to acquire Nissan's factories and equipment, but also planned to acquire Nissan's entire business. This also led to Honda Motor to accelerate the progress of discussing the establishment of an alliance with Nissan.
