Japanese car maker Nissan decided to have some fun with its brand name on April Fools Day, releasing a video in which its name gets mixed up with companies with similar names. In the video a Nissan staff member playing the role of a news anchor – with an obviously fake moustache – reports on a flying object created by Nissan and noodle maker Nissin that makes an unexpected landing at the headquarters of conglomerate Nissen.
The flying object, which looks like a giant instant noodle bowl, is called USO. Uso in Japanese means a lie in English. The news anchor explains the USO confusion is a result of the mispronunciation of Nissan and Nissen. The video included a scene of a driver talking to his Nissan car navigation system and accidentally saying Nissen instead.
