Honda to premiere new EV prototype at 2019 Geneva Motor Show

Honda has confirmed the global premiere of a prototype version of its new electric vehicle at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2019.

Honda says its new electric vehicle is developed with a focus on functionality and purpose and the prototype sketch demonstrates this through its clean, simple and unique design. The image highlights a clear link to Honda’s Urban EV Concept initially shown at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show. 

The debut is a further demonstration of Honda’s ‘Electric Vision’, a commitment that two-thirds of European sales will feature electrified technology by 2025. A mass production version of the car will be on sale later in the year.
