Honda CRV PHEV?

I drove a 2019 Clarity PHEV for several years and loved it, but eventually replaced it with a full electric Ioniq 5. My wife drives a 2018 Pilot, and I would like to consider replacing it with a PHEV for those occasional longer trips where range anxiety comes into play. I finally saw a recent post on the U.S. Honda CRV PHEV.
But it didn't mention when it will be available in the U.S., whether it would qualify for the tax credit, or the EV-only range. Somewhere I read that it had a battery similar in size to my old Clarity, and I have seen a wide range in EV miles--some as high as 50 miles. Fifty miles would mean we would almost never need to use gasoline. Does anyone have any information on the CRV PHEV? I understand that their U.S. battery factory is supposed to be done in Ohio by the end of 2025 and that the Marysville plant may be in production later this year, so perhaps 2025 may be a good possibility.

AFAIK, the only CR-V PHEV that will be available in the US (well, only in California) is this Ohio-built CR-V that runs on hydrogen when not being powered by its battery. China, England, and Europe get gas-electric CR-V PHEVs, but the not the continent where most CR-Vs are sold.
