The group's CEO Carlos Ghosn said that there is an explosion in demand amid the efforts to contain the damage due to climate change. The electric car market is leaping ahead with thenew technology of cheaper batteries.
The segment also enjoys government incentives to customers and better infrastructure for charging vehiclesadded Mr. Ghosn.
He further added that it is no brainer for him as electric cars are going to be a much bigger part of the auto industry in the future.
