If Soichiro Honda raised his head, he would surely bow it again, because business times are much more difficult than the ones he had to face when he transformed his small motor vehicle segment company into one of the largest producers of motor vehicles. of the world. But due to the times we live in, we can read news like this, in which Honda Motor Co. has joined GS Yuasa Corporation to put an electric motorcycle on the market in 2010.
Yuasa is going to participate in the development of Lithium-Ion technology to achieve high-performance, low-weight batteries. After reading this I can only be happy, because when advances are made in these fields they always end up "leaking" into other aspects of daily life, as happened with cell phone batteries a few years ago. Meanwhile Honda has scratched its pocket by investing 18.5 million dollars to buy 49% of Yuasa.
Now we can only wait to see the results of this alliance, and have confidence so that what comes out is not a chestnut if not a really usable vehicle in the not too distant future, because Mad Max is very good as a movie, but it is a too apocalyptic future even for one of the greats of the motor as is Honda.
