Japan's Honda and Nissan have agreed to jointly develop a new operating system and electronic control unit (ECU) based on Nissan technology and plan a formal announcement on the 31st. They intend to fit vehicles due in 2029 with integrated ECUs and an OS to create software-defined vehicles (SDVs) capable of ongoing feature upgrades via over-the-air (OTA) updates.

Huazheng New Materials, in an Aug 30 filing, reported 1H revenue of 2.96 bln yuan, up 41.28% YoY; net profit attributable to shareholders 173 mln yuan, up 305.28% YoY; basic EPS 1.14 yuan.
