Sony Debuts Afeela Prototype 2026 Electric SUV, Custom PlayStation Themes for Afeela 1

The Afeela Prototype 2026 SUV features PlayStation Remote Play and customizable in-cabin experiences powered by Qualcomm, with production starting in Honda's Ohio plant.

  • This past week at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, Sony Honda Mobility unveiled the Afeela Prototype 2026 compact SUV concept as a surprise closing reveal, blending Vision-S 02 proportions and targeting 2028 availability.
  • SHM says the car will focus on entertainment and personalization, introducing PlayStation Remote Play streaming with a DualSense controller and a Co-Creator program for custom themes and sounds.
  • SHM detailed the tech stack, noting the Qualcomm Snapdragon Digital Chassis runs infotainment and safety compute, with a 40-sensor suite and PlayStation 5 integration including Remote Play demoed.
  • SHM outlined near-term production and rollout steps, saying Afeela 1 is built at Honda's East Liberty Auto Plant, Ohio, with deliveries starting in California late 2026 and demos via the Afeela Advanced Access program later this year.
  • Market watchers point out that a $89,900 starting price for the Origin trim and $102,900 for the Signature trim, paired with 300 miles, means a tight value case against Tesla and luxury automakers.
