GM and Honda have agreed to jointly develop two all-new electric vehicles, which are expected to go on sale in the 2024 model year.
GM is retooling its Detroit-Hamtramck plant to build all-electric vehicles in about 18 months, so it may be a candidate. A GM spokeswoman said the company will offer more details as it gets closer to the launch date.
These new electric vehicles are expected to go on sale in the 2024 model year in Honda’s United States and Canadian markets, the companies said. GM and Honda have an ongoing relationship in EV development. They have worked on fuel cells and the Cruise Origin, an electric, self-driving car revealed in San Francisco early this year.
Cruise, GM's self-driving vehicle unit, has been testing self-driving cars in San Francisco for the last few years. GM has said it will build the Origin at Detroit-Hamtramck.“This expanded partnership will unlock economies of scale to accelerate our electrification roadmap and advance our industry-leading efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions," said Rick Schostek, executive vice president of American Honda Motor Co., Inc.
As part of the agreement, Honda will incorporate GM’s OnStar safety and security services into the two EVs and integrate them with HondaLink. Honda also plans to make GM’s hands-free advanced driver-assist technology available.
