Besides meeting global regulations, nowadays a hybrid remains safer in the eyes of the average customer than going full-EV. On a sidenote, considering the cost of high-voltage EV tech, it does surprise me that Honda doesn't even seem to consider the low-voltage hybrid and electric tech developed by Valeo which is often pointed out to allow a more affordable implementation of electrified (either BEV or hybrid) powertrains in general.
