Just a day before its keynote at CES, Nissan has teased a new announcement related to Cortana. Don’t get too excited as there isn’t any information regarding the announcement itself.

Nissan only tweeted a video of Cortana where the personal assistant shows the user their reminders for the week:

It is likely Nissan will announce some sort of Cortana integration in their cars, which will indeed be quite interesting to see. Nissan is part of the Renault-Nissan alliance, which actually teamed up with Microsoft recently to bring productivity and other next-gen services to their cars.

Last year at CES, Microsoft also teamed up with Harman to bring Office and other productivity features to their cars — so it’s very likely we will see a similar sort of announcement from Nissan this year at CES. Harman, however, didn’t bring Cortana to their cars — and it will be interesting to see if Nissan brings Cortana to their cars.
