Nissan and Honda will say yes to each other
It's more than a rumor from the Japanese press: Nissan, in difficulty, and Honda in great shape, find all the details of this merger should merge within a few months. which neither of them denies. On the program of this marriage, which could include Mitsubishi, the third world manufacturer is foreshadowed with an annual production of nearly 8 million cars. For its part, Renault, which would like to sell the shares it still holds in Nissan's capital, views these nuptials favorably, since the Japanese's shares have skyrocketed since the announcement of the merger. which bodes well for great added value for the diamond.

The new Citroën cruise
It’s a modern-day paradox. Presenting a 1,000 km car trip as an expedition can obviously seem exotic. Except that the vehicle chosen by Cédric Pinatel, Stéphane Schlesinger and Adrien Reseta to reach Marseille from Paris, via Montpellier, is the Citroën e-C3 with its 42 kWh battery and its 320 km of WLTP autonomy. Why not ? Except that to make the test more difficult, the three lads will use the highway exclusively and, in cold weather, plan for a range of 130 km. Results of the races (at a very moderate pace) on Caradisiac very soon.

Nissan Ariya Nismo, the Hyundai Ioniq 5N?
Everyone who, one day, got behind the wheel of it quivered with joy. The Hyundai Ioniq 5N, a sporty version of the wiser Korean SUV, is the pleasant electric surprise. Can the Nismo version of the Nissan Ariya claim to compete with it? For Alexandre Bataille, who tested it this week, the answer is no. However, the Nismo badge so far is a sign of sportiness. But the braking like the chassis are, according to him, not up to the challenge of this type of car: pleasure. Remains an attractive price for a sporty look and a surplus of equipment.

Citroën has only one objective: to compete with Dacia
Thierry Koskas, the boss of Citroën is beating around the bush. Just like his counterpart Denis le Vot at Dacia. No, no and no, they don't make low-cost cars, but “essential cars”, nuance. And both leaders focus on simplicity. Thierry Koskas is angry against the price of cars which is increasing while customers' budgets remain unchanged. As for Denis le Vot, he notes that in five years, the price of general cars has changed a lot. Two rival men, but on the same wavelength.
