From Out of Spec Podcast.

Honda is hitting the brakes on its EV plans – and it’s a bigger deal than it sounds. The Prologue is set to disappear by the end of 2026, while the Acura RSX and Honda’s ambitious “0 Series” (including the Saloon and SUV) have been scrapped as part of a major electrification reset.

In this Out of Spec video, I break down the announcement, the surprising sales swing from 2025 to early 2026, and what Honda’s shift back toward hybrids really means. We also dig into the tech behind the Prologue (GM’s Ultium platform) and what we’re losing with the cancellation of Honda’s next-gen 800V EVs.

Plus, I sit down with Shane – Prologue and Lucid Air owner and a familiar face from our Out of Spec races – to talk about real-world ownership, why the Prologue actually made sense for many drivers, and whether legacy automakers are starting to rethink the EV race.
