Auto123 gets in a first drive of the 2024 Honda Prologue, Honda’s first foray into the world of the battery-electric vehicle (BEV).
Montreal, QC - It seems that before it even began, the partnership between General Motors and Honda to share EV platforms , it was all over. There was just enough time for GM to make use of the deal and release the Chevrolet Blazer EV and for Honda to come with this: the 2024 Prologue.
The front and rear fascia get some great detailing as well, some of which is unique, some of which is a bit derivative but cool nevertheless. The front end is dominated by a full-width contrast colour insert that surrounds the headlights and logo, and it’s a futuristic touch if somewhat Hyundai Ioniq 5-esque. It is clean, and you can see the goal was to be stylish but also nice and slippery in an effort to reduce drag. Glimpse of 2024 Honda Prologue from rear Photo: D.
In the end, all that is secondary. More important are the comfortable front and back seats, great view forward and with the Touring’s panoramic moonroof, airy ambiance. I’d have liked a frunk, but Honda says that the way this was designed. The need for motors both front and back means that if ever a frunk was going to fit, it would be too shallow to be worth anyone’s while.
Other Touring-specific features include 12-speaker Bose audio and a heads-up display, while Google Built-In tech is standard on all trims. The backup cam also comes with a 360-degree view. Although, the lack of a battery percentage indicator while driving – it only appears as you enter the car – is annoying. Hopefully this gets added nearer to production.The pricing structure means every Prologue trim is eligible for governmental EV rebates, both federal and provincial .
