Honda isn't even doing incremental steps, they are sitting it out still hoping EVs fail. That was a "safe" bet 10 years ago but completely insane now. Car companies just can't pivot on a dime, you have to ramp up your supply chain over a few years which the the Japanese OEMs are NOT doing.

In the early 2000s Toyota and Honda did hybrids right while the US OEMs sat out the first 10 year. Japan OEMS are doing that failed US OEM stragegy now for EVs... and they'll unfortunately pay for it.
