HONDA Motor Co said on Wednesday it is talking to Waymo, the autonomous driving unit of Google parent Alphabet Inc, to try to strike a deal that would put its self-driving technology into some of the Japanese carmaker's vehicles.
Both companies stressed that the talks are about research, rather than full-production vehicles, at this point. If all goes well, Honda may provide Waymo with vehicles that are modified to run the self-driving system, and those cars would join the existing Waymo fleet currently being tested in four United States cities.
