■三菱自、ホンダ・日産連合に合流 国内大手、トヨタと2陣営に
Mitsubishi Motors joins Honda-Nissan alliance
It was learned on the 28th that Mitsubishi Motors is coordinating with Honda and Nissan Motors to join their collaboration in areas such as electric vehicles (EVs). If this comes to fruition, Japan's major automakers will be consolidated into two camps: the group centered around Toyota Motors, and Honda, Nissan, and Mitsubishi Motors.
As the business environment changes rapidly due to the shift to EVs, companies have accelerated their efforts to cooperate in order to survive.
Honda and Nissan are considering standardizing EV software and core parts. They are expected to announce the specific details of their collaboration this summer, and Mitsubishi Motors is also looking to join this framework. There is also a possibility that Mitsubishi Motors will collaborate with the two companies through its strengths in plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHVs) and pickup trucks.

■用語解説
Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle (PHV)
A hybrid vehicle (HV) that can be charged by connecting to an external power source. Unlike electric vehicles (EVs), it is equipped with both an engine and an electric motor, so it is possible to run while generating electricity with the engine and charging the battery. In addition to being suitable for long-distance driving, in the event of a disaster, it can also be used as a "generator" that generates electricity with the engine, rather than just using a charged battery.
However, it has been pointed out that if the vehicle is continued to be driven as an EV, the gasoline in the fuel tank may deteriorate.
