Honda EV next month - only $47-60K

A rebadged Honda CR-V that's fully electric. They're naming it the Honda Prologue. I'm sure it will sell like hotcakes, right? Totally worth spending twice as much to get a different nameplate on the back to show strangers you're green.

"The Prologue does not currently qualify for the federal government’s $7,500 EV tax credit."
When does Honda stop making it, 2026 or 2027?
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

It's not a rebadged CR-V. It's built off a GM platform.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

No. The car was built from the ground up by GM. It's a rebadged trailblazer.

Sounds like a piece of chit. Only sedans are good electric cars.

So GM reliability, not Honda? Gdamn.

After a few thousand halftards buy one in 2024 how many dozens will they sell each month after? I'm thinking they sell about 2000 of them in 2025. No tax credit from the feds = death.

They don’t know where it’s being built, probably Tennessee though so it does qualify

If so I stand corrected. They'll sell 6-8000 next year instead of 2000. They'll get buyers the first year since certain people always do that, then it will drop. Without people fearing mandates I don't think they'd sell 1000 of them.

Anything EV by GM is a hard pass

Oof, thats gonna be a deal breaker for a lot of people in California. During my commute seemingly every other car on the road is an EV. If you don't get the $7.5k tax credit there's really no point when there are other EVs on the market that qualify for it.
