Je veux pas relancer un autre débat mais GM va finir par acheter Toyota. :wink:
Pourquoi pas :?: Proctor&Gamble vient de bouffer Gillette pour 57 milliard.
The Nihon Keizai Shimbun reports that Toyota Motor and Fuji Heavy Industries, the maker of Subarus, plan to form a technology partnership for the production of hybrids. The newspaper cited no sources from either company.
Under the reported partnership, Toyota will supply its hybrid drive system to Fuji Heavy for the Subaru line in North America, which accounts for 35% of its sales.
In return, Fuji Heavy would supply Toyota with advanced lithium ion batteries for use in hybrids.
Fuji Heavy's output of vehicles is only about 590,000—too low a volume for it to cost-effectively develop its own hybrid technology, which is the path it had been taking.
The report noted that GM is Fuji Heavy's top shareholder, but that the hybrid technology being developed by GM and DaimlerChrysler (DCX) was focused more on large vehicles with engine displacements of greater than 4.5 liters, and “is not expected to be applied anytime soon to vehicles with engine displacements of around 3 liters, Fuji Heavy's strength".
