Honda Just Axed Its Last EV In The U.S.

Say goodbye to the Honda Prologue. The automaker confirmed on Thursday that it will discontinue sales of its sole electric vehicle in the U.S. market later this year. The move follows the demise of the Acura ZDX in late 2025, and it will leave Honda without a fully electric offering in America.

"Honda will conclude sales of Prologue later this year following completion of the 2026 model year," a spokesperson told CarBuzz. "Prologue customers will continue to receive full support through our dealer network, including service, parts, and warranty coverage."

Policy changes advanced by the Trump administration and Congress have upended America's EV industry. As clean-car regulations eased and the loss of the tax credit dampened demand, carmakers have yanked a slew of EVs from the market. EVs are broadly unprofitable for legacy auto manufacturers, so in some ways it's not surprising that they jumped at the opportunity to pump the brakes. Honda was an early mover, killing the Acura ZDX last September, just before the $7,500 tax credit's untimely expiration.

The Ford F-150 Lightning, Nissan Ariya, Volkswagen ID.4, Volvo EX30, and many others followed. In the second quarter, EV sales showed their strongest signs of recovery since the EV tax credit shock last year. But it looks like the devastation isn't quite over yet.
