Interesting. Did they say why it's being discontinued? The Sutra has been highly regarded for a few years now, so that seems puzzling. My speculation is inadequate sales, but this is entirely speculative. Since they're now offering 3 models and the other two are more gravel/off-road oriented maybe they think that's a more lucrative market.
