Honda and Acura have announced that their upcoming electric vehicles, the 2024 Honda Prologue and the 2024 Acura ZDX, will be eligible for the full $7,500 federal tax credit in the US. This is a significant advantage for the customers and the brands, as it lowers the effective price and increases the competitiveness of the EVs. The tax credit applies to all Prologues built after February 26, 2024, and all ZDXs regardless of the build date. However, customers who want to buy a Prologue built before February 26 will have to lease it to get the tax credit.
