Confirmed Models, Current Choices and Future Updates
2027 Honda Model Lineup Overview for Bedford, Ohio
Honda's 2027 changeover is underway, but the entire U.S. lineup has not moved to the new model year at once. The HR-V, CR-V, Prelude, and Odyssey are confirmed as 2027 vehicles. Several other Honda models remain current 2026 choices while their next model-year information is still pending.
This Jay Honda guide focuses on the decisions that matter: vehicle size, seating, cargo access, powertrain type, available traction, local inventory, and which future announcements are actually official.
Official Honda and Jay Honda sources reviewed September 5, 2026.
The Short Answer
Which Honda Models Are Confirmed for 2027?
Honda currently identifies the 2027 HR-V, 2027 CR-V, 2027 Prelude, and 2027 Odyssey on its U.S. vehicle catalog.

Meet the Confirmed 2027 Honda Models

Current Honda Choices
A 2026 Honda May Still Be the Right Answer
Model-year timing should not override vehicle fit. Honda's current 2026 catalog still covers sedans, hatchbacks, larger SUVs, a pickup, and an electric SUV that the four confirmed 2027 models do not directly replace.
Accord and Civic Family
These remain Honda's sedan and hatchback choices. The Civic family also includes the Civic Si and Civic Type R performance models.
Compare them when: A lower seating position, enclosed trunk, smaller footprint, hatchback access, or performance model is important.
Passport and Pilot
Passport is the two-row midsize SUV path, while Pilot adds a third row and broader passenger capacity. Both sit above CR-V in the SUV range.
Compare them when: You need more cabin space, V6 power, or more rugged SUV configurations.
Ridgeline
Ridgeline combines a pickup bed with standard all-wheel drive, a dual-action tailgate, and a lockable In-Bed Trunk.
Compare it when: Open-bed cargo and towing utility matter more than enclosed SUV cargo space.
Prologue
Prologue is Honda's current battery-electric SUV, with front-wheel-drive and dual-motor all-wheel-drive configurations.
Compare it when: You can support routine home or public charging and want an electric SUV.
CR-V e:FCEV
The CR-V e:FCEV combines plug-in battery operation with hydrogen fuel-cell technology, but Honda limits availability to participating California dealers near approved hydrogen stations.
Bedford-area relevance: It is part of Honda's national product story, not a normal Ohio retail option.
Choose Around Your Real Routine
Find the Honda That Fits the Job
Start with passenger count, cargo shape, parking, powertrain access, and the equipment you will use regularly. Model year comes after those essentials.
Compact and easy to place
Compare HR-V and Civic. HR-V adds crossover seating and available AWD; Civic offers sedan or hatchback body styles.
One vehicle for many roles
Start with CR-V. Its gas, hybrid, front-wheel-drive, and all-wheel-drive choices cover a wide range of daily needs.
Three rows and family access
Compare Pilot and Odyssey. Pilot uses SUV packaging; Odyssey adds sliding doors and more specialized passenger-access features.
Gear, towing, or rugged use
Compare Passport and Ridgeline. Passport keeps cargo enclosed; Ridgeline adds a pickup bed and In-Bed Trunk.
Hybrid without routine charging
Compare CR-V Hybrid, Accord Hybrid, Civic Hybrid, and Prelude. Body style and cabin needs separate these choices.
Performance focus
Compare Prelude, Civic Si, and Civic Type R. They offer hybrid coupe, manual sport-sedan, and high-performance hatchback approaches.
| Compact footprint | Civic or HR-V |
|---|---|
| Flexible two-row SUV | CR-V or Passport |
| Three-row seating | Pilot or Odyssey |
| Open-bed cargo | Ridgeline |
| Gas | Available across most current model families |
|---|---|
| Hybrid | CR-V, Accord, Civic, and Prelude families |
| Battery electric | Prologue |
| Hydrogen fuel cell | CR-V e:FCEV, limited to participating California dealers |

A Bedford-Area Decision Process
How to Compare Honda Models at Jay Honda
Jay Honda serves Bedford and Greater Cleveland from Broadway Avenue and identifies itself as Northern Ohio's first Honda dealership. A productive visit should narrow the lineup around your actual routine before moving into trim-level details.
Build a two-model shortlist
Choose the closest alternatives for your use case, such as HR-V versus CR-V, Pilot versus Odyssey, or Passport versus Ridgeline.
Test the everyday details
Check seating position, rear access, visibility, control placement, phone connection, and the way your regular cargo fits.
Compare the exact drivetrain
Front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, gas, hybrid, and electric versions can change how a model fits your driving and ownership routine.
Separate model from trim
First choose the right vehicle architecture. Then compare which trim adds the comfort, visibility, technology, or utility features you value.
Verify the actual vehicle
Use Jay Honda's live inventory to confirm the model year, trim, drivetrain, color, and whether a specific vehicle is available or in transit.
Drive the route that matters
During a test drive, evaluate low-speed maneuverability and highway merging rather than relying only on specifications.
