Honda, Aoyoma toldThe CEO, Mibe, added that while Honda's sports cars will be distinct from the competition, things are going to change.
“So far, Honda’s selling points [for sports cars] have been Honda’s engines and the manual transmission," Mibe toldBut from now on, we would like to be able to come up with cars that are loaded with technology that gives it the fun to drive features and are fun to drive in the age of electrification”
How exactly Honda will separate its cars from the competition remains to be seen. But the company already has prototypes of an EV sports car and, per Mibe,"that vehicle is more fun to drive, definitely, compared to the six-speed manual transmission vehicle."
