The Volvo EX30 and Honda's Honda Prologue are the latest vehicles to be discontinued due to decreasing EV sales in the US due to the Trump administration's decision to eliminate tax incentives. The small SUV was the most affordable EV in Volvo's lineup and will remain on the market globally, including in Mexico and Canada. However, Volvo's US division has decided to discontinue the Ex30 and Ex30 Cross Country after the 2026 model year. The decision comes after Honda announced it was planning to discontinive its Zero Series EV and will reportedly not order a second generation of the EV, effectively ending production of the Prologue. Despite this, Honda recently announced it is taking a write-down on its EV investment of up to $3.5 billion due to challenging earnings situation.
