日本名古屋——日本汽车零部件供应商Niterra取消了原计划收购国内竞争对手电装的火花塞和废气传感器业务，双方周五表示，这是应电装因市场变化而提出的要求。
NAGOYA, Japan -- Japanese automotive parts supplier Niterra canceled its planned acquisition of domestic rival Denso's spark plug and exhaust gas sensor businesses, the companies said Friday, at Denso's request due to changes in the market.
Niterra于2025年9月宣布达成协议，转让日期待相关反垄断法批准后确定。此后，电装在审查其业务战略后要求终止收购。
Niterra announced the agreement in September 2025, with the date of the transfer left open subject to approval under relevant antitrust laws. Denso has since asked to halt the acquisition following a review of its business strategy.
双方同意以2026年3月31日为基准日期，价格定为1806亿日元（按当前汇率约合11.4亿美元），将根据该日期与实际转让日期之间的天数进行减少。
The companies had agreed to March 31, 2026, as the reference date with the price set at 180.6 billion yen ($1.14 billion at current rates), to be reduced based on the number of days between that date and the actual transfer.
电动汽车需求放缓，而包括混合动力在内的燃油车需求回升。考虑到这些市场变化，电装得出结论认为“继续经营该业务将有利于维持和增强其应对日益多样化出行需求的能力。”
Demand is slowing for electric vehicles while picking up for combustion cars, including hybrids. Conscious of these market changes, Denso concluded that "continuing to operate the business would be optimal for maintaining and strengthening its ability to respond to increasingly diverse mobility needs."
Niterra表示，“漫长的谈判和延长的收购过程不仅会增加其未来业务前景的不确定性，还会影响为顺利业务转让和协同效应创造所需的整合计划制定。”该转让原本将使Niterra拥有全球火花塞市场超过一半的份额。
Niterra said "prolonged negotiations and an extended acquisition process would not only increase uncertainty regarding [its] future business outlook, but also affect the formulation of integration plans required for a smooth business transfer and synergy creation." The transfer was set to leave Niterra with more than half of the global market for spark plugs.
