Last week, Volvo announced a partnership with Microsoft which will see Skype for Business being integrated into the Swedish automaker’s 90 Series cars. As part of those efforts, the two firms are also exploring the possibility of building Microsoft’s digital assistant, Cortana, into Volvo vehicles in the future.
It now looks like a further collaboration is just down the road involving Cortana and another automotive giant. Japanese manufacturer Nissan tweeted a tantalizing video in which Microsoft’s assistant played a starring role.
In the video, Cortana responds to an enquiry from a user asking what’s in his calendar for January 5, to which the assistant replies: “You’re all set for C-E-S [sic] in Las Vegas, might be some exciting announcements.
