Automakers General Motors and Honda have agreed to jointly develop two all-new electric vehicles for Honda, based on GM's highly flexible global EV platform powered by proprietary Ultium batteries.

Honda will exclusively design the exteriors and interiors of the new EVs, and the platform will be engineered to support Honda's driving character.

Production of these Honda electric vehicles will be at GM plants in North America.

Sales are expected to begin in the 2024 model year in Honda's United States and Canadian markets.

GM and Honda have an ongoing relationship around electrification.

This includes work on fuel cells and the Cruise Origin, an electric, self-driving, and shared vehicle, which was revealed in San Francisco earlier this year.

Honda also joined GM's battery module development efforts in 2018.

As part of the agreement to jointly develop electric vehicles, Honda will incorporate GM's OnStar safety and security services into the two EVs, integrating them with HondaLink.

Additionally, Honda plans to make GM's hands-free advanced driver-assist technology available.
