Honda has announced that it would be returning in that year, revealing the next phase of its new EVS 0 series diversity. earlier. This will be our next review of the Honda Series 0 progress, because those two initial models on the market in 2026.
Although Honda is a family vocation in cars and other motor vehicles, its presence in the electric vehicle has been limited but growing. The company recently sells the Prologue EV, built on the Ultium form of GM, but has not yet offered a completely personalized style To American consumers.
This era will begin with Honda’s upcoming line of all-electric 0 Series vehicles. Last January, we got our first public look at Honda’s new 0 Series design language at CES 2024, when the Japanese automaker unveiled two electric vehicle concepts called “Saloon” and “Space Center. “
At the time, Honda said the two concepts represented a design precursor to Honda’s next-generation EVs. This past October, I visited Honda’s design center in Japan, where I saw the Saloon concept inside and out. I even got to test drive the automaker’s new 0 Series EV platform. However, it was implemented on an Accord body, so it was difficult to get a feel for how its upcoming bespoke models, like the Saloon, will drive.
Honda has said in the past that the sedan will be one of two electric passenger cars to hit the market in the 0 Series, and the automaker has taken the next step in that process, moving from concepts to prototypes, which it is now teasing ahead of its unveiling. at CES 2025.
Honda posted the two teaser images above today, along with the date and location of their official reveal at CES at the Las Vegas Convention Center on January 7. According to Honda, these prototypes represent the next models in the Honda 0 Series, which are slotted to hit global market in 2026.
Honda has yet to share many more details about the EV prototypes, but they are clearly evolutions of the Saloon and Space-Hub concepts that debuted at least one year ago. It seems these two bespoke BEVs will be the first in Honda’s 0 Series lineup to hit the market and offer very different designs for consumers. Per the release:
In January at CES 2024, Honda created the Honda 0 series and its “slim, gentle and wise” technique. At CES 2025, Honda will provide more main points on this technique with a “wise” value.
The “thin, gentle, and wise” technique was at the center of all of Honda’s presentations and demonstrations during my five days in Japan earlier this year, and I learned a lot about the company’s goals and philosophy as it looks to catch up. An exciting and ever-evolving global market for electric vehicles.
That being said, the Honda team kept most of its cards to its chest and was extremely vague about what technologies that we were shown would actually make their way into bonafide production EVs. I found Honda’s unique production and assembly techniques most fascinating, especially since it was some of the only concrete tactics we could confirm.
Equipment such as the 6,000-ton megacast machines (six of which will be operational at Honda’s production facility in Ohio, USA) and Honda’s DC DC (CDC) welding generation will increase the number of individual components and the total weight of the vehicle, while increasing the performance of passive protection.
If the Saloon comes to production something like the concept, I’d buy it. Last year, the car was spec’d at 650 hp, dual motor, AWD, 400 mile range, and $50K MSRP. January 7th will be interesting.
I want to quantify my statement. My existing ride is almost 12 years old with 94k on the clock and I’m almost 78 years old. I drive less than five miles a year, so I didn’t get a new car until I couldn’t drive anymore.
However, with regard to the specifications of the electric vehicles of Honda series, we are still very dark. In addition to presenting its two prototypes of electric vehicles, Honda announced that it will introduce a new operational formula for the vehicle and automated driving. Technologies that will be implemented in the models of series 0. So we will have more data on what those long -term BEV can do (finally).
At CES 2025, Honda will also provide a preview of the formula on ChIP (SOC) that will include Honda 0 Series models and Software Defined Vehicles (SDV), which is “at the center of ‘value’. ” All eyes will be on the Honda booth on January 7, 2025, when we follow up with a full recap.
