EV journey to begin with hybrid technology in India: Honda | Writer | Admin | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Japanese auto major Honda will use hybrid vehicles as intermediates in the next two years in India before going for full electric vehicles (EVs) as it expects setting up of supporting infrastructure such as charging stations to take time. The company, which is present in India through a wholly-owned subsidiary, aims to follow the government's push for environment-friendly vehicles by driving in models with green technologies.
A hybrid car has more than one source of power. Usually, it combines a conventional combustion engine with an electric motor to run the vehicle. "In India, we will follow the EV direction set out by the central government. EV is surely the way forward for mobility technology and we expect that with government's initiative, energy sources will shift to more renewable ones in next few years," Honda Cars India Ltd (HCIL) Senior Vice President and Director Rajesh Goel. |
