Honda has canceled three electric vehicles it was developing for the U.S. market, blaming President Donald Trump\u2019s tariffs and rising competition from Chinese EV companies.<\/p>\n

Honda said on Thursday that Trump\u2019s tariffs have harmed the company\u2019s gas and hybrid vehicle business, which has put its overall automobile business in \u201can extremely challenging earnings situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Combined with an \u201cinability to respond flexibly\u201d to competition from China and slowing growth in the U.S. market, the company said it has decided to cancel the Honda 0 SUV and 0 Saloon, which it first showed off at the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show<\/a>. The electric Acura RSX has also been scrapped.<\/p>\n

The Japanese automaker said it will \u201creassess its resource allocations and further strengthen its hybrid models\u201d in the U.S. market. All these changes could cost Honda as much as $15.7 billion, the company warned. <\/p>\n

Honda joins an increasingly long list of legacy automakers that have pulled plans for electric vehicles they had once planned to sell in the U.S.<\/p>\n
