The automaker will produce the low-cost model locally, the Nikkei said, adding it will roll it out as part of its upcoming “Honda 0 Series” global EV lineup. A Honda spokesperson said that while the automaker aims to release an EV priced below $30,000 as an entry-level model as part of the series, the company has not made any decision yet on whether to release that model in North America. Japan’s second-biggest automaker has been slow to step up sales of battery-powered vehicles, lagging behind U.S., European and ******** rivals, including Tesla, Volkswagen and BYD. The company is striving to have battery-powered and fuel-cell vehicles make up all of its new car sales by 2040.
