Even though Sony Honda Mobility hasn't said much about its upcoming car, what it has said really gets our pulses racing. The joint venture anticipates beginning production of its first electric vehicle in 2026, focusing on production in North America and online sales in that market. The second market will be Japan, followed by a deployment in Europe.
Sony Honda Mobility has indicated that the car, which does not yet have a name, may be capable of Level 3 autonomous driving in certain conditions and Level 2+ autonomous driving in a wider range of settings.
