both companies have decades of innovations. sony's come back from a bad slump now (cameras, game boxes, phones, etc), and honda is seemingly coming out of a slump (new civic is a huge improvement).
both companies are capable of amazing things. no they haven't done anything yet, but both have been working on EVs so it's promising.

. If they do launch a new car, I hope they use the direct sales method. Hopefully, Sony can improve the mediocre Honda interfaces https://www.engadget.com/2011-02-09-...e-an-eagl.html

The new company will aim to bring together Honda’s cutting-edge environmental and safety technologies, mobility development capabilities, vehicle body manufacturing technology and after-sales service management experience, with Sony’s expertise in the development and application of imaging, sensing, telecommunication, network and entertainment technologies, to realize a new generation of mobility and services for mobility that are closely aligned with users and the environment, and continue to evolve going forward.
I don't see what there is to be excited about other than nostalgia for a brand despite it being the worst among all the Japanese OEMs when it comes to electrification. This won't change that.

they make highly competitive prosumer and professional cameras.
sony makes TONS of broadcast video and audio equipment.
they make the playstation which is no joke.
they make millions of the cameras that go in cell phones made by both them and others.
they make competitive but less popular cell phones.
about software, they have tons but industry specific and not stuff average people would know.

So basically the extent of Sony's involvement will be infotainment and maybe drivers aids, meanwhile Honda still hasn't developed a viable EV platform and will continue begging GM to use theirs in the foreseeable future.

Just guessing they will be strong in integrating software with mechanics, etc but just hoping I guess.
