The automakers said Tuesday that Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corp., whose top stakeholder is Daimler Truck, and Hino Motors, a truck maker in the Toyota group, will merge. All the companies will collaborate to reduce carbon emissions, and develop other technologies such as autonomous driving, Internet-connected services and electric vehicles.
