well in this case Nissan is paid for the vans by chevrolet up front. because its being made in a nissan factory, chevy wont be learing any manufacturing secrets any more than if they went out, bought one and reverse engineered it..

conquerer i think its just a risk manufacturers take

risks = rewards

bowtie That have to be protecting themselves in some way unless the collab is extremely vital to their success.

Do you really think they are going to hand over a proprietary product to a core competitor and not insulate themselves to a degree? There are agreements in place that when a manufacturer lends another thier design to be sold as a rebadge the rebadge cannot be priced within X of the original.

Dacia Duster/Nissan Terrano is a perfect example...

bowtie Being the successful brand they are they sure are smart enough to do this, plus to go through a process like that it has to go through a lot of people in a position of authority in the brand.
