A few Honda models are allegedly sticking around a bit longer than expected. The automaker informed suppliers that it will continue producing several popular vehicles through the end of the decade.
Automotive News reviewed a memo Honda sent to suppliers listing which models will remain in production through 2032. The next-generation Odyssey minivan, which Honda had allegedly considered discontinuing for a few years, will arrive in March 2030. The fifth-generation Odyssey first went on sale in 2018 and has received two facelifts—one for 2021 and another for 2025.

The HR-V is sticking around even longer than the Odyssey, which makes sense because it is newer. The current HR-V went on sale for 2023. Honda will continue to produce the Accord, which could become hybrid-only in 2030. The memo did not reveal when a next-gen Accord could arrive, but, like the HR-V, it went on sale in 2023.
At Acura, the luxury brand will continue to offer the current Integra and MDX. Buyers should expect an updated Integra in early 2032 and a new MDX in early 2031.
Honda has just published its April sales report, and sales aren’t great for every model the automaker wants to keep around. Odyssey sales tumbled 23.0 percent for the month and are down 18.4 percent for the year.
HR-V sales are also down, 11.8 percent in April, and 21.1 percent through the first four months of 2026. The Accord had a great month, with sedan sales up 42.5 percent. They are up 27.5 percent for the year.
Integra sales were also strong, up 27.1 percent, and the brand’s second-best-selling model for the month, outselling the RDX crossover by just 53 units. MDX sales fell 0.4 percent, with sales for both models still up for the year.

Motor1’s Take: The purported memo arrives after Honda has announced a major shift in direction for the company, cancelling electric vehicles and doubling down on hybrids. That kind of transition is costly, so this decision to keep several current models in production through the 2020s could help Honda allocate resources to new, efficient combustion powertrains.
