Honda is discontinuing sales of its only electric vehicle in the US, the Honda Prologue, at the end of the 2026 model year. This decision follows the cancellation of three other EVs in March and marks a significant shift away from the US EV market for the company. The Prologue, which was a collaboration with General Motors utilizing their Ultium platform, struggled to compete with popular models like the Tesla Model Y and Model 3, despite being the sixth-best-selling EV in the US during its initial sales period. Honda plans to focus on its own EV platforms and may not bring future electric models to the US, leaving the hydrogen fuel cell Honda CR-V e:FCEV as its sole zero-emission offering in the region. AI
