Sony and Honda to jointly develop electric vehicles

Sony and Honda want to establish a joint venture to jointly develop electric vehicles.

 

The jointly founded company will operate under a new name. However, the name of the future company has not yet been announced. The aim is to offer high-value-added vehicles and the associated service. In other words, the company will work on a high-value product with a corresponding service.

What this means in detail is of course still unclear, but it is possible that the company will have its own chain of charging stations or a battery exchange system. Since the company is working on a wide variety of vehicles, its own battery system would make perfect sense. In any case, a battery that could be used in several products would make perfect sense, and a Honda battery exchange service has already been launched in India.

 

The first vehicle is expected to go on sale as early as 2025, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be a motorcycle.
