But now, it seems like the next manufacturer to follow that move is Renault. During a recent general meeting, Renault’s CEO Luca de Meo recently announced that future Renault models will be capped to 180 km/h, regardless of model.

Merely weeks after its global debut in Japan, the all-new 2021 Honda HR-V has been spotted in Thailand. As seen on social media sites, this particular Honda HR-V was spotted somewhere in the vicinity of Ayutthaya, Thailand – the same area where Honda Thailand has a production facility.
