Sony Honda Mobility has finally confirmed when the first customers of its Afeela 1 EV will receive their vehicles, while also showing us a brand new concept car during its CES 2026 press conference.
The Afeela 1 was first announced back at CES 2023, after Sony and Honda jointly showed off the original Vision S concept at CES 2020.
At the introduction of the Afeela, Sony Honda Mobility said it would hit roads in the US in 2026, and the good news is it’s set to keep that promise from three years ago.
Company CEO, Yasuhide Mizuno, confirmed that deliveries of the fully electric Afeela 1 sedan will start in California later this year, with Japanese customers next in line to receive the car in the first half of 2027.
This will be welcome news for those who reversed an Afeela several years ago, and it will be great to see the car hit the road. However, Mizuno had one more thing to show us during his presentation.
