Which Hondas Are Being Discontinued in 2026?

The Honda lineup is entering a new chapter. As the brand continues its shift toward hybrid and fully electric vehicles, some familiar models are quietly stepping aside to make room for what’s next. The 2026 model year won’t bring sweeping cancellations — but it does signal key transitions for a few long-loved Hondas as the company focuses on electrification, technology, and efficiency.

At Kunes Auto Group, we’re keeping a close eye on what’s changing so our customers can make smart, informed decisions — whether you’re looking for one of the final gas-only models or ready to embrace Honda’s next generation of hybrid and electric vehicles.

Honda’s long-term plan is clear: simplify the lineup, focus on best-sellers, and make hybrid and electric power the new normal. By 2030, Honda expects nearly all new models to feature some form of electrification — whether that’s hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or all-electric.

That vision means certain smaller or less popular vehicles are being phased out, while the most beloved models — like the Civic, Accord, and CR-V — continue to evolve with advanced technology and hybrid efficiency. The changes coming between 2025 and 2026 reflect this strategy perfectly.

The Honda Odyssey has been a family favorite for more than two decades, earning top marks for safety, comfort, and long-term reliability. But the market for traditional minivans is shrinking as more families choose three-row SUVs that combine space and capability with a rugged look.

By 2026, the Odyssey is expected to enter a major transition — possibly its final traditional generation before Honda introduces something new. While no official discontinuation has been confirmed, the company’s development focus has shifted heavily toward electrified SUVs, meaning resources could move away from minivans in the years ahead.

Why it could be ending: The rise of the three-row Pilot and Passport has taken over much of the Odyssey’s customer base. These SUVs deliver similar space and power, with available all-wheel drive and hybrid potential on the horizon.

What could replace it: Honda may introduce an electrified family vehicle in the next few years, blending the Odyssey’s family-first design with the brand’s growing hybrid and electric technology. Expect future models to offer flexible seating, advanced infotainment, and improved efficiency for families on the go.

Even as a few models step aside, Honda’s core lineup is only getting stronger. Vehicles like the Accord, Civic, CR-V, HR-V, and Pilot are all continuing into 2026, many with hybrid versions that offer more power and better fuel efficiency than ever.

The 2026 HR-V in particular is expected to bring a fresh look, upgraded interior tech, and expanded standard features like wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a larger touchscreen display. Meanwhile, Honda is also preparing to launch new all-electric models built on its dedicated EV platform — marking the start of an entirely new era for the brand.

For drivers, the 2026 model year is a moment of transition — where long-running favorites give way to the next generation of clean, connected, and efficient vehicles.

Here’s what that means for you:

• Last-chance opportunities. As remaining Odyssey models roll off lots, you may find exceptional deals and financing options.
• More hybrid choices. Nearly every key Honda model will offer a hybrid version by 2026, giving buyers more flexibility between performance and efficiency.
• Early access to electric innovation. Honda’s new “0 Series” electric models are on the horizon, giving drivers a glimpse into the company’s next era of mobility.

As Honda transitions its lineup, 2026 will be a year of exciting change — not just for the brand, but for every driver looking for smarter, more sustainable transportation. While a few models are bowing out, the road ahead is full of opportunity.
