Honda’s making a new EV SUV that’s bigger than the Prologue.
Both the in-development Prologue and the ZDX are codeveloped with GM and run on the American automaker’s Ultium EV platform. But now, Honda’s got a new SUV that’s all its own, alongside plans to further extend its partnership with GM and build several more “affordable” EVs based on Ultium for sale in “2027 and beyond.
But Honda isn’t only counting on Ultium batteries; the automaker is working with LG Energy Solution to begin a new battery production joint venture before the end of the year. And for the future, it's exploring its own solid-state battery tech, along with a semi-solid-state joint development with SES. Honda plans to have a demonstration line of solid-state batteries next year, and plans to introduce them in new EVs coming in “the second half of the 2020s,” according to press materials.
Honda also announced today it will be re-tooling three Honda plants in Ohio to prepare production lines for electrification and become its North American EV production hub. The automaker plans to build 2 million EVs annually by 2023, and only build electric and fuel-cell vehicles globally by 2040.
