Honda is officially pulling the plug on its only EV in the US

Honda is discontinuing the Prologue, its only electric vehicle sold in the US. The company confirmed sales will end later this year after the 2026 model year wraps up. Honda says current Prologue owners will keep getting service, parts, and warranty coverage through its dealer network, so owning one won't leave you stranded.

The Prologue had actually been a strong seller, ranking among the top 10 EVs in America, but it's built on General Motors' Ultium platform rather than a Honda-designed one, and GM is moving away from that platform. Honda also scrapped its own next-generation EVs earlier this year, meaning it will soon have no electric vehicles built or sold in the US at all. Instead, the company is shifting toward a new lineup of hybrids, with 15 new hybrid models planned worldwide by 2030, including larger hybrids for North America.

For anyone shopping for an EV, this narrows the field, though Honda is offering closeout lease deals on remaining Prologue models, reportedly starting around $279 a month, for those interested in one before it disappears from showrooms. If you already own or lease a Prologue, nothing changes immediately for maintenance and repairs. But if you were hoping Honda would offer more electric options down the road, that push is on hold while the company bets on hybrids instead.
