News EVs and Transportation Honda is officially pulling the plug on its only EV in the US The soon-to-be-retired electric SUV was born from a collaboration with GM. By Ian Carlos Campbell July 16, 2026 5:15 pm EST Jonathan Weiss/Shutterstock After cancelling three EVs in March , Honda is getting out of the US EV game entirely by ending sales of the Honda Prologue at the end of this 2026 model year, CarBuzz reports . The company announced the electric SUV in 2021, and started selling it in 2024. With just two years on the market, it's yet another casualty of the end of federal EV incentives in the US. "Honda will conclude sales of Prologue later this year following completion of the 2026 model year," the company said in a statement to CarBuzz . "Prologue customers will continue to receive full support through our dealer network, including service, parts, and warranty coverage." Engadget has contacted Honda for more information about its EV plans in the US once the Prologue is retired.
We'll update this article if we hear back. The Prologue wasn't as popular as the Tesla Model Y or Model 3 in its first full year of sales, according to Electrek , but it was still the sixth-best-selling EV in the US. It was also the product of a unique collaboration with General Motors , where Honda planned to use the car maker's one-size-fits-all Ultium battery platform to kickstart an eventual shift into predominantly EV sales. GM ultimately abandoned Ultium in 2024 in favor of other battery designs, prompting Honda to focus on its own platform.
