Honda sent Red Bull drivers Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda out in its upcoming 0-Series SUV prototype between runs in iconic F1 machinery. 

Initially unveiled at CES 2025, Honda’s 0 SUV prototype is a mid-size electric ute slated to go into production at Honda’s Ohio EV Hub in 2026.

As part of a series of electric 0 vehicles, the SUV will be joined by a wedge-shaped 0 Saloon in late 2026.

With the Red Bull Racing and Honda partnership coming to a close at the end of this year’s Formula 1 season, the two manufacturers put on quite a show in the streets of Tokyo ahead of the 2025 Japanese Grand Prix this weekend.

The celebratory event saw Red Bull’s driver lineup ripping full tilt through a closed course between the office buildings of Aoyama's business district in some iconic Red Bull and Honda F1 machinery. At one point in the event, Honda gave the audience a reprieve from the screaming V-8s and hybrid V-6s by sending its electric 0-Series SUV prototype onto the street course with four-time Formula 1 World Champion Max Verstappen behind the wheel. Needless to say, he left his earplugs behind.

This is the first time that we've seen the Honda 0 SUV prototype in motion following its unveiling at CES 2025 in January. As part of Honda's upcoming 0 Series lineup of electric vehicles, the funky-looking 0 SUV will be the first model built using Honda's newest EV architecture. Honda hasn't released many facts or figures about the 0 SUV's range capabilities or battery tech, but we do know that it will likely offer Level 3 autonomous driving and a next-gen operating system called ASIMO OS.

In addition to the windswept mid-size SUV, a wedge-shaped 0 Saloon will also be added to Honda's new electric roster at a later date. Both models will be built in Honda's EV Hub in Marysville, Ohio, with production models of the 0 SUV slated for a mid-2026 release and the 0 Saloon following at the end of the year.
