Honda Cars India says it has an EV coming up in near future lineup
CHENNAI: Honda Cars India is lining up new models or product refreshes every year from 2023 onwards even as it looks to integrate its India business with the global target of getting two-thirds of its sales from electric vehicles by 2030.
“Our second launch after the new City this year will be an ICE SUV which is a global product. But with India as a lead country, we have an electric vehicle coming up in our near future lineup,” said Kunal Behl, senior VP and director marketing and sales, HCI. Honda’s decision to phase out its hatchback models is part of this overarching strategy, he added.
“Our global vision – which India is also part of – is that by 2050 we will achieve carbon neutrality and zero traffic fatality so by 2040 100% of our sales will be from electric vehicles,” he added.
