In a recent interview, Honda Motor Co. CEO Takanobu Ito said that the Japanese manufacturer is considering electric cars for the U.S. market, European and Japanese. This move came after the slow progress in setting up hydrogen fueling stations. Due to this, Honda has been forced to take a closer look at plug-in electric cars. The funny part is that Honda dismissed these electric cars because they offer a short-range option that uses too many expensive batteries. Also, the Evs will be a necessity for Honda if they want to meet tough regulations in California. "There is no change to my view that hydrogen fuel-cell cars will in the end be proven the best. (But) electric vehicles will also be a core option for cars in the future," Ito said.
