Honda brings forward goal to be fully electrified in Europe to 2022

Japanese carmaker Honda has brought forward a goal to only sell electric and hybrid cars in Europe by three years to 2022, a leading company executive said on Wednesday. Last month, Honda said it would phase out all diesel vehicle sales in Europe by 2021 in favor of electrified vehicles. The carmaker had said in March it intended "to move 100% of its European sales to electrified powertrains by 2025."
