Honda Motor Co. is a Japanese automaker founded in 1948 and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, with major North American operations based in Marysville, Ohio. Best known globally for reliability, fuel efficiency, and engineering innovation, Honda has been somewhat slower than some competitors to commit fully to battery electric vehicles — but is now accelerating its electrification efforts significantly.
Honda’s EV history in the US includes the original Honda EV Plus in the late 1990s and the Fit EV in 2012, both sold in limited numbers. The brand’s current mainstream EV push centers on the Prologue SUV — developed in partnership with General Motors — and the Honda 0 Series, a new lineup of purpose-built electric vehicles developed on Honda’s own EV platform.
Honda has historically dominated the hybrid market alongside Toyota, and its expertise in electrified powertrains gives it a strong foundation for the BEV transition. The brand has committed to making its entire North American lineup carbon neutral by 2040.
Honda vehicles are sold through one of the largest dealership networks in North America. The brand competes in the mainstream EV market alongside Toyota, Hyundai, Chevrolet, and Ford, appealing to buyers who value long-term reliability and value alongside electrification.
