Honda confirms that the first vehicle riding on its dedicated EV platform is "a mid- to large-size" model. It goes on sale in 2025. The announcement comes as part of a major presentation from the automaker's president and executive vice president about the company's future. A focus on technology and electrification is the way forward.
Honda is developing a new vehicle operating system for the 2025 EV on the e:Architecture platform. The company doesn't offer any specifics about this tech. It's hiring twice as many people as originally planned for in-house software development, including working on this system, advanced driver assistance, and connected vehicle features. There will also be a new Global User Experience Officer position within the automaker.
