The 0 Saloon and 0 SUV, set for 2026 production, integrate AI for tailored driving experiences, advanced autonomy, and improved EV charging efficiency.
- Honda's upcoming 0 Series EVs, the Saloon and SUV, will feature an AI-powered personal assistant named Asimo, designed to adapt to driver preferences and behaviors over time.
- The vehicles aim to provide Level 3 autonomous driving capabilities, enabling hands-off and eyes-off operation under certain conditions, though these features remain subject to regulatory approval and further development.
- AI integration will enhance the EV charging experience by finding optimal charging stations and streamlining payment processes using big data and compatibility with major networks like Tesla Superchargers.
- The 0 Series incorporates futuristic design elements, such as camera-based side mirrors, a minimalist interior, and a software-defined approach to vehicle functionality, prioritizing updates and personalization.
- Production of the 0 Series is planned to begin in Ohio in late 2026, but questions remain about the feasibility of delivering on Honda’s ambitious AI and autonomy promises.
