Honda has just unveiled an ambitious plan to phase out combustion engines entirely by 2040. That's right, say goodbye to gas-powered Hondas in just over 15 years

To achieve this goal, Honda is putting the pedal to the metal on in-house development.

This means building more EV components themselves, just like Tesla does. This gives them more control over costs and technology.

The journey to electrification won't happen overnight. In the meantime, Honda will keep offering hybrid options to generate revenue for the big shift.

But keep your eyes peeled for 2026, because that's when they'll be showcasing a game-changing EV platform

because the future of Honda is electric, and it's going to be an exciting ride
