Honda to start U.S. production of fuel cell electric vehicles in 2024

Honda announced that it will produce an all-new hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle, or FCEV, based on the recently launched, all-new Honda CR-V starting in 2024 at its Performance Manufacturing Center in Marysville, Ohio. "This new zero-emissions vehicle will contribute to Honda’s previously announced goal to make battery electric vehicles and FCEVs represent 100% of its global auto sales by 2040. The new CR-V-based FCEV also will mark North America’s first production vehicle to combine a plug-in feature with FCEV technology in one model, which enables the driver to charge the onboard battery to deliver EV driving around town with the flexibility of fast hydrogen refueling for longer trips," the company stated.
