I don't that's the case any longer. The article here ends with something of a summary, but at this point all of the German manufacturers are saying that they are going all in on electric (across every brand/model) by the end of this decade. Swiss manufacturer Volvo says they are expecting nearly the same. The Korean conglomerate (Kia, Hyundai) has been saying something similar (albeit they still seem to be hedging with hydrogen fuel cells a bit). Japanese manufacturer Nissan has been preparing for the switchover more than most and also expect to be all electric by the end of the decade. (Except for Nissan of America which has gone so crazy the board threatened to rebrand them back to Datsun in order to jettison them.) Honda has said they expect nearly as tight a shift over. (Though Honda of America isn't paying attention either.) GM is hedging its bets but still expects to be 75% electric by the end of the decade. (GM has always made a point since the original Volt of focusing its electric efforts in the non-luxury Chevrolet brand first.) That's all just off the top of my head, and covers a huge gamut of non-luxury brands.
