     @micahflee I think this is overblown. Nissan's sales drop is catastrophic in comparison and they're not going anywhere. They'll just get new investors.

     @Linknation @micahflee Do you actually think all Nissans are built in Japan because it's a Japanese company?? Or that all Kias are built in South Korea?
     
     Most Nissans sold in the USA are built in Georgia, Tennessee, and Ohio. Most Kias sold in the USA are built in Georgia.

     @feld @micahflee ... have u looked into it? #foxconn a #China company! (maybe finally the #AppleCar will become reality? (without #Apple)) that would mean: #Japan is selling it's equivalent of #Chrysler to #China... and all the jobs go where? correct, to #China, who is losing? #Japan just because #Nissan (great cars btw was big fan of #LEAF (u STILL can buy #batterymodules to upgrade)) was arrogant and blew the deal with #Honda :( https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/foxconns-aim-is-cooperation-with-nissan-not-acquisition-2025-02-12/

     @Linknation @micahflee European car companies are screwed, the Australian ones are dead dead now. But in the USA we'll just ban the Chinese cars to protect our own companies.

     @feld @micahflee well even worse for #USA if #foxconn buys into #nissan? "US, the UK, and Japan Nissan’s factory in Sunderland, England, reached the milestone. The car is also put together at Nissan factories in Kanagawa, Japan, and Smyrna, Tennessee" https://gearshifters.org/nissan/where-is-the-nissan-leaf-built/ what do u think where jobs will go?
