“Even as Nissan focuses on electric cars, it also continues to develop and improve internal-combustion-engine technologies to use in hybrid cars and diesel-engine vehicles. This is because electric cars are likely to account for 10% of overall global vehicles by 2020, which means the rest of vehicles will remain powered by conventional engines.”He said to the online.wsj.com.
