TOKYO -- Honda Motor aims to roll out electric vehicles capable of 15-minute charging in 2022, cutting down one of the steepest hurdles to the expansion of battery-powered cars.
The Japanese automaker plans to release in that year a selection of fully electric cars that can run 240km on a single 15-minute charge. Most electric vehicles now available take at least twice that long to reach an 80% charge even using a high-speed charger.
